He has screwed himself regarding his bowing to illegals and foreign policy.
He was an embarrassment, I watched the debate to hear him for the first time amidst the others. He was far worse than I even thought he would be. Wooden, inarticulate, wrong, pandering, and I gather he told a bold faced lie about the Gardisil episode.
He was also the only candidate booed tonight, and he was booed twice, deservedly so.
Whoever thought this guy could overcome his immigration record was smoking the evidence. Good grief.
From what I saw tonight and at the last debate, Perry is going to fade fast. Santorum is going to emerge as the one who can deliver a KO to Romney.
I’ve never considered Santorum someone who could actually win, but he’s clearly got the chops. He’s relaxed. He knows what he knows. And, unlike Perry, he’s had years of explaining his positions to groups and on talk radio and, if he gets more debate time, it looks like he’ll be able to run circles around Romney.
Perry is exactly what I thought.
W light.
