Perry was never going to be the nominee of the pubbie party. I am not saying he is a bad man he simply doesn’t fire an emotional response from the voters. Couple that with his debate performances in 2012 and I can see the dim ads now.
You’re right. He should have never tried to go through the primaries in 1212 after the back surgery that had him so heavily medicated. They will use sound bites and video to drive him down.
