Why can’t he just run for the senate where his uselessness would really shine?

yes that was a head scratcher, either he is at the least not politically savvy, or he thinks he will need moderate support to have any kind of chance

I like Gov. Perry, but we need a Cruz or Rand Paul to fire me up, and the base.

Perry? Pass. Give me Cruz...bright, articulate, brave, and makes the left wet their pants. Perry is a nice guy...but so was Mitt. We need fire in the belly types...but also forward thinking strategists like Cruz to lead with vision. Perry is lackluster.

I was willing to overlook a lot of things given his success in Texas, but siding with someone who has just vowed to “crush” the Tea Party puts him beyond the pale.

No. His last presidential campaign was an embarrassment. Changing the campaign messaging won’t help. Perry is a good guy who should do something else.
