What IS Perry like?

He claims, and O’Reilly didn’t dispute him, that he’s done much to improve Texas economy by lowering taxes (or keeping them low, don’t know which) and other stuff. He talks about transferring power form the feds to the states, which we need desperately. But he, as almost all, fail to bring the Constitution to the center of the discussion in the mandate to cut the feds.

There’s something about Perry though - like he has a veneer on or something - a bit wooden.

“What IS Perry like?”

Also one of his PROUDEST accomplishment was the “Texas DREAM Act” whereby Illegals got in-state college tuition. That’s what led to his famous “heartless” remark (if I remember right). He also didn’t lift a finger regarding Sanctuary Cities and had to be dragged into supporting Voter ID (which, I admit, is still better than Rand Paul, who considers it ‘racist’ in his twisted mind).

Perry’s big mistake 4 years ago was running in the first place. One needs to be up to speed on federal/international issues to run, or you get clobbered, once you’re in the upper tier. Perry wasn’t there. Now it’s very hard for him to get past the “giggle factor” - he’s kind of the new Dan Quayle...and I don’t see him overcoming it - even if he’s better prepared this time.
