Perry’s Presidential Campaign Is Having a Deja Vu Moment

Hey, remember when Gov. Rick Perry refused to debate at all when he was campaigning to keep the “best job in America“ not long ago? And then we realized when he announced that he had been called to run for president and had to start debating, that there was probably a really good reason he didn’t want to debate Bill White?

Well, Perry has decided, apparently, that the “best job in America” strategy is a better one than the tried-and-probably-true one that includes debating. So he will be debating less in the future. Part of me understands this, because there have already been an infinity of GOP debates. But part of me is also wondering if the strategy that allowed him to win the gubernatorial race will work well nationally.

What say you?

Congrats to the moron for having somebody on staff that finally convinced him to keep his dumb mouth shut.

Yes, ole Ricky Bobby makes us all look like idiots for electing him over and over. “W” is brain surgeon material, compared to this half-wit.
