Re: GOP Debate Tonight
I am hearing that this is Perry's strategy.
"Rick Perry is pursuing a risky strategy, one radically different from other Republican candidates. Those "other candidates" are pursuing a "NOMINATION STRATEGY," where they go so far to the right that they win the nomination -- but also offend a significant MAJORITY of American voters. Then, in the general election they spend most of their time essentially saying, "I didn't mean a thing I said in the Primary!"
It's a General Election Strategy. That is, he's not running against Romney; he's running against Barack Obama. He and the advisors he trusts believe the traditional "veer right, lurch left" approach won't work anymore. The GES might conceivably cost Rick the nomination, but it's the only approach that could end up making him our next president."
