Perry did a good job, but he wasn't challenged much on his answers. Newt was under the gun all night from all sides and came out standing. The rest of the pannel would be hard pressed to do the same.

Perry just lacks the right stuff to be a Presidential statesman. That takes a man like Newt.

Perry would make a good cabinet member or Secretary of State, Defense, or the Interior. He would do either position justice. He is well suited for a roll like that. Just not President.
