Perry’s just getting started, he’s in this race for the long haul. He’s got the record to back up his ideas.
Jindal made an incredible case for Perry this morning on MTP. He really was excellent.
It’s exciting to watch Perry’s campaign. While Cain is a boisterous inspirational speaker and Mitt is inevitable, Perry doggedly plows the field. It’s refreshing to see this.

I like both Perry and Jindal, missed the show. I will look for it online.
Reminds me of the tale of the tortoise and the hare. I’m glad to see Perry fighting the good fight.
