I’m sure Coburn’s plan will be sound. He is definitely taking the right approach in standing up to Norquist and the ideologues. Conservatism is the negation of ideology.

This conservative Texan’s take:
Perry is the worst sort of politician’s politician. He’s smarmy, basically corrupt, and not very bright.
The only reason he looks good to folks outside our state is because any Texas politician would look good to y’all in the less deep red states.
Perry hasn’t done anything. Whatever he claims as his resume is in reality the work of the private sector or if government has had a role it’s the Lt. Governor who’s more powerful, the Speaker of the House, the Committee Chairs and the more influential legislators.
He’ll remind people of GWB in a serious way, and that’ll scare off independents.
