The Washington Post rooting for Rick Perry.
Huh.
That should tell anybody with two brain cells in a row everything they need to know about CFR-boy.

Carl Cameron, senior Fox News political correspondent, is reporting that military leaders and international experts in high levels of government have been meeting with Rick Perry.
Last night on Fox News Special Report with host Bret Baier, Carl Cameron ended his segment on the GOP Primary by reporting that Texas Gov. Rick Perry is within 2 weeks of announcing his run in the GOP presidential primary.
Cameron said Gov. Perry is meeting with very, very senior retired defense department officials who are briefing him on U. S. defense issues.
Along with briefings on defense issues, international experts in high levels of government have been meeting with Perry to discuss U.S. trade, China, foreign affairs and the economy.
Also, more information complied here:
Texas governor [Rick Perry] seeks advice on a GOP bid (also being briefed on U.S. defense, trade..)

I like Rick Perry; however, when he chose to say that Texas could secede from the Union, he made himself radioactive for higher elective office.
There is just no coming back from some statements.

People are for him in the same way they were for Bob Dole in 1996, said Tom Perdue, a longtime Georgia strategist. That has to give one a feeling of comfort.
To: Cincinatus' Wife
I give Perry a pass on being Al Gore's Texas campaign manager back in 1988. That was a long time ago.
That Perry endorsed and campaigned for Giuliani in the last election cycle is more significant to me.

GOP Establishment likes Perry. ‘nuff said.

I like Rick Perry; however, when he chose to say that Texas could secede from the Union, he made himself radioactive for higher elective office. I don't think he actually said that. I'm sure one of his pimps round here will correct that one way or another.
To: basil
This Texan knows we can do better than Perry......... This Texan wishes we could do better than Perry but doubts that we will. And given the choice between Perry and Romney I'll certainly support Perry.

I thought this was a Democrat talking point slam against Rick Perry's "off the cuff" comment about how this administration is attacking states' rights.
You're really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

To: Seaplaner
when he chose to say that Texas could secede from the Union, I dislike Perry. The fact that he was only joking about that and would never offer the option of secession, is one my dislikes of him.

some major Atlanta donors backing Romney have told Perdue privately that they would jump ship really fast if Perry runs. Some of the Romney supporters would prefer Perry.
So Romney is great, but Perry would be even better to them.
