Right, Perry does it correctly, he can boomerang this against the DUmbs.

Even the New York Times editorial board thinks the grand jury indictment of Texas Gov. Rick Perry is baseless. In an editorial dripping with contempt for their own conclusions, the Times is compelled to confess that there is really no there there.
“One has to read this editorial to appreciate the angst it engendered in the Gray Lady’s panel of handwringers,” Ed Morrissey observed. “It’s an expert lesson in the use of weasel words.”
Conservatives have rallied to Perry’s side following this baseless indictment. Democrats have scrambled to disassociate themselves from his accusers. Many thought that Perry may end up emerging, paradoxically, in a better political position for having been indicted on corruption charges.
But Rosemary Lehmberg, the local district attorney who managed to secure this indictment and who many believe was exacting political retribution against Perry after he sought her removal from the bench for her DUI arrest, may end up with the last laugh.
“Texas Gov. Rick Perry plans to turn himself into authorities Tuesday afternoon at a local Texas jail on the heels of his indictment for alleged abuse of power, a member of the governor’s legal team told Fox News,” a report read on Tuesday. “Fox News has learned Perry will have his mugshot and fingerprints taken.”
That’s really bad news for those who backed Perry’s prospective 2016 presidential campaign. No matter how frivolous the charges Perry faces, and they are frivolous, few politicians can recover from having a police mugshot follow them around wherever they go. And Perry’s mugshot will do just that in 2015 and 2016.
Life isn’t fair, and neither are high-dollar Republican donors – the kind of people a prospective candidate needs to woo in order to mount an even remotely competitive presidential campaign.

CNN reports that Tom Delay conviction was reversed on appeal — but insists he is not vindicated because the prosecutors are still after him to have the conviction reinstated.
The Left takes its political hack work very sereiously.
I'd like to see Perry sue NPR.
RE: Good riddence to La Raza Rickie.
Are you saying he is guilty and deserves to go to jail?
First they came for Perry....
The left will always tell you who they worry about, by who they go after.
But to my mind, this is revenge for sending NatGuard troops to the border and showing the POTUS up.
Right, Perry does it correctly, he can boomerang this against the DUmbs.
A Texas judge opted Monday not to issue an arrest warrant against Gov. Rick Perry,
but the Republican still faces the unflattering prospect of being booked, fingerprinted
and having his mug shot taken — and has assembled a team of high-powered attorneys
to fight the two felony counts of abuse of power against him.
Why is this not happening to Obama?
It’s done and back to the podium for a few words.

Doe he lose in the end?
That’s to be determined. I suppose as long as he doesn’t kick and scream, or need to be restrained and donned with a spit mask his odds will be better.
Leave it to the “conservative” political pundit class to take a completely outrageous prosecution and turn it into doom and gloom for Republicans. I don’t care what you think about Perry. The only response to this should be to call out Rosemary Lushberg for the corrupt, fat, drunken hag that she is.
I love it.
This could enable him to rally the base against the Party of Satan as it takes off its mask and reveals its demonic identity.
They messed with the wrong Republican.
Because it would be so awesome if that is real...
Photoshop
Perry should look at Tom Delay’s mug shot. Best photo of Tom ever taken. Tom looked like a model on vacation in Aruba.
Perry being more photogenic than Tom should just take off the Granny glasses and show them how GQ he is.
The best way to annoy a Liberal is to look handsome and happy taking a Mug shot.
LOL!
