The GOP establishment fears Perry. The mainstream media fears Perry. Obama fears Perry. And the nativists really fear Perry.
The Perry feeding frenzy is in full swing. Never seen any conservative get this hammered so quickly and so intensely.
Then you haven't bothered to watch any national elections.
Both Palin and Reagan were subject to far far worse abuse then anything Perry has faced to date
Perry has been subject to the most superficial basic scrutiny of his words and record. He has not faced the sort of nasty attack politics that both Palin and Reagan faced from the national media.
If Perry cannot handle this minor heat, he is never going to survive the much worse heat the National Democrat Campaign will direct at him in 2012.
Face it Perry is just not ready for the national political stage.
You nailed it. I haven’t seen anything like it. Obama hates Perry and I think it is mutual. It will be interesting for the next few months.
