You must have been watching a different debate. While I agree about Gardasil and immigration, the crowd was firmly in Perry's corner on the Social Security question.
I agree about the crowd & Social Security. But the problem is whether an answer acceptable to last night's debate audience will fly with other voters during a presidential election.
Romney gets that. That's why he talked about scaring old people every chance he got. If Perry's the nominee, Obama will lift Romney's tactics vs. Perry on that issue.
