If you are going to hold endorsements against people, don’t forget that Tom Coburn endorsed John McCain, Jim DeMint endorsed Mitt Romney, and Sarah Palin endorsed John McCain for the Senate primary.
People endorse for many reasons; I do think endorsing Rudy was bad judgment, but I’d hate to see an otherwise good candidate sunk because of a couple of bad endorsement decisions.
I lived in Texas under Perry. I can tell you he sounds GREAT right now, but I was there when he was not running. If it was JUST the Rudy G thing, I could look over it, but if you read the posts above, you will see a long list of the REAL Rick Perry.
He would be better than what we have now, but so would almost anyone.
