-"Spoken like someone with no clue about Texas politics."

You might have a point there. Some very 'strange' type of people there in Texas who are called "CONSERVATIVES" who would actually head up the GORE CAMPAIGN in 1988 when Reagan was still in office.

You are right, I definitely DON'T HAVE A CLUE.

And...we are also supposed to SWALLOW that all of a sudden within ONE YEAR'S TIME (from 1988 to 1989), Perry had a "conversion" of philosophy from GORE "Texas Conservatism" while the person you compare him to (Reagan) was actually still in office after 8 years, to REAL "Conservatism" less than a year later?

Gore was a product of Tennessee, a staunchly Republican state now. He was a wolf in sheep's clothing and fooled a lot of people.

You can believe he's conservative or not. I really don't care. But it bugs me when people who obviously don't understand the guy AT ALL blather on about him like they do. He's going to make a GREAT president.

Perry could plead insanity for the time he campaigned for Al Gore. But I am still not sure it would help his case, though.
