Didn’t see it mentioned anywhere, but I think that one reason why Rick Perry “reassessed” to stay in his campaign was that he was still a principal in a VA lawsuit to allow him and, therefore, Gingrich to be on the ballot, which could help Newt in voting count.
If he had “suspended” his campaign, that alone could have been the grounds for dismissing the lawsuit.
Once the appellate court threw out the lawsuit, the sole remaining reason for Perry’s candidacy vanished, and he was never in it to be a spoiler.
Thank you, Governor, that was very classy!
I too wondered about the Virginia lawsuit angle of this as well. You might be right, and I agree, Perry was total class all the way, including how he ended it.
Gov. Perry would do that.
