Rick Perry to drop out of presidential race

He endorsed Newt. It's kinda weird that the douches from redstate asked for this to happen the other day.
 
He was the best chance Republicans had. He could rally conservatives and evangelicals, can not be accused of being a Washington insider, didn't have the flipflops of Romney nor Gingrich, nor the personal scandals of Gingrich nor past radical bizarre statements of Santorum.

With the only coverage the media would give was always summarily "Perry can't win" for 2 weeks his campaign was over. Fox News has decided that the election will be Romney v. Gingrich, holding Santorum in reserve, and people will vote how Fox (if Republican) and MSNBC (if Democrat) tells them to vote.

That is exactly what I thought when it was first known he was going to throw his hat in ring. At that time I was willing to bet he would be the party nominee. However having not followed him closely beforehand, I just didn't realize how dumb he comes off. He made Bush W look bright!

He has superior handlers in Texas that's been able to present him in ways that cover his...hmmmm, whats the word I'm think of...hmmmm. Oh, yes...ignorance.
