Rick Perry is a lot of things, but he isn't a conservative.

Texas, IMHO, is a template for modern, practical American conservatism that works when put into practice. The state...

1) Has no state income tax.
2) Is right to work.
3) Is pro-business
4) Has meaningful tort reform
5) Has drill baby drill
6) Has a part time state legislature and limited state government.
7) Is securing its borders as the Federal Government won’t.
8) Actually uses its death penalty
9) Is strongly pro-Second Amendment
10) Is strongly pro-life.

Correct me if I’m wrong. But I do believe Gov. Perry supports all of the above policies and principles.
