I’m no JM fan, but I think this is a pretty good article. Asks a question that people are asking, then gives a nuanced and believable answer.

Gives Perry lots of credit for having clear priorities, a well-honed executive style, and a very effective approach for a politician.

Makes him out to be a formidable and disciplined political competitor.

The “reporter” is trying to pull another Palin. Seed the question about intelligence then continue to write things that fit the self created scenario.

It's the oldest activist reporter trick.

Olde Johnny M is a huge Obot and dedicated journOlist.
JOhnny M was seen skipping, chanting , and celebrating at the Denver Messiah event in 2008.
In fact, his behavior was so over the top in Denver , that Hugh Hewitt asked a fellow Leftico Dem operative/journolist about it on the air !
John was previously a Compost Dem operative who trashed Bush, Cheney and did a real number on Senator Allen of VA. He is 100 % Dem -Soros media slime and a huge Liar and a real jackass in person as well.

“...I think this is a pretty good article. Asks a question that people are asking, then gives a nuanced and believable answer.”

Personally, I am ever so WEARY of *nuance.* I much prefer the plain talk of Gov. Perry. By the way, this constant talk of “dropping g’s, etc.” demonstrates nothing less than linguistic ignorance.

In the long run, the article is balanced.....though the implications regarding Perry’s intelligence/knowledge base remain. He does make the case that Gov. Perry understands how to listen and use the assistance of intelligent advisors. To me, this means the guy has good common sense......a quality that is increasingly lacking in Democrat circles.

After reading all of this, I do have to wonder....if this article reveals the growing disenchantment with Obama?
