CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — In spite of his thundering speeches against big government, Texas Gov. Rick Perry has a troubled relationship with the tea party, a rift increasingly obvious as he gets closer to a presidential bid.

Tea party groups from New Hampshire to Texas are collaborating to criticize Perry's record on immigration, public health and spending and his former affiliation with the Democratic Party.

In the last Texas governor’s race, the “white” Republican candidate, Rick Perry (BTW, isn’t Perry a common
Melungeon name?) was darker complected than the “minority” Democrat candidate, Tony Sanchez,
who was very obviously of the Caucasian race, with fair skin, blue eyes, and, at a younger age, light brown hair.

Yes, that is true, but what does it have to do with presenting information where Perry is concerned?

I'm pretty sure all Freepers have the same sentiments.

But there is a lot of campaigning between now and November 7th, 2012 before even the chance of the matchup will take place.

When Rolling Stone does a hatchet job on Rick Perry (trust me, they will) it will be time to declare him a major candidate.

http://www.politifact.com/texas/statements/2010/mar/19/karl-rove/karl-rove-says-he-and-consultant-david-weeks-persu/

Karl Rove says he and consultant David Weeks persuaded Rick Perry to switch parties and run for state agriculture commissioner

Texas Gov. Rick Perry draws mention in GOP consultant Karl Rove’s autobiography with attention
focused on Perry’s win for lieutenant governor in 1998 and Rove’s role in his pivotal earlier
switch from the Democratic to Republican party while he was a third-term member of the Texas House.

Rove writes: “Rick Perry had planned to retire from the legislature until his best friend,
David Weeks, and I talked him into switching parties and running for the GOP nomination for
agriculture commissioner.” His book, “Courage and Consequence, My Life as a Conservative
in the Fight,” was published March 9.

The poster in question is one of FR's hardcore Paultards.

I'll listen to critiques from actual Republicans instead, thank you.

And Perry isn't even my first choice.

While I was in Houston last year undergoing my major cancer surgeries and rehabilitation afterwards, I saw Rick Perry go to San Antonio and meet with La Raza and basically pander to them to try and get their vote.

I like a lot of what Perry does, but that really upset me and made me question the depth of his commitment to conservative and republican principle.

IMHO, it was a pretty disgusting occurance. Actually, kind of surprised me. I was raised in Texas, buyt have been gone quite a while and am not as familiar with Perry’s history and background as I ougth to be.

I had, to that point, felt he was pretty good...despite misgivings over the entire I35 corridor, Highway of the America’s or whatever they are calling the NAFTA highway these days which I also have trouble with.

Yeah like I give a rats whatever about Gardasil. I hope Perry throws his hat in the ring. It will certainly stir things up. What do we have to lose? I am not impressed with any of the other candidates running and that includes naive politicians like Bachmann who is reduced to defending medications for migraine headaches when her opponent, Obama, won’t release any of his medical records.

I wrote these song lyrics for your hero back in 2007 (sing to the tune of Wild Thing:

Wild shrimp!
I am your pork pimp!
I'll make federal funds ... easy!
Wild shrimp!

Wild shrimp, I want to pimp you
But I gotta know for sure.
Will eight mil be enough?
You need it...

Wild shrimp!
My values go limp!
I'm just an earmark pimp
For my wild shrimp!
