Jim Hightower is on Chris Matthews & just said,

"The higher the monkey climbs the more you see his ugly side & Perry has a very ugly side.
He's going to put the ugly in presidential." clo

Rick Perry, according to Jim Hightower
Hearing Jim Hightower's description of Rick Perry, you'd have to wonder what corporate entity wouldn't hand this guy endless campaign funding. If you thought the tea party was about to do all big businesses dirty work, guess again, it's Perry. His simplified messages, sweeping generalizations and ultra folksyness is scary. What's odd is the lack of information out there for this long time governor and corporate toad.

But this is at least a start. More to come. Chris Hayes....

Nah,

I hear Paul Ryan & Chris Christe are considering jumping in.
Perry is a loose cannon, this attracks red meat republicans, but NOT Independents.
And we know those 10% hold the KEY to the Oval. clo

Karl Rove on Perry:

UPDATE: Rick Perry's "treason" comments are drawing sharp criticism from a wide range of political observers and talking heads, among them Karl Rove.

"You don't accuse the chairman of the Federal Reserve of being a traitor to his country. Of being guilty of treason," Rove, who has clashed with Perry before, told Fox News (via TPM). "And, suggesting that we treat him pretty ugly in Texas — You know, that is not, again a presidential statement."

Rove continued: "If Rick Perry were to be elected president he'd be saddled with Ben Bernanke who has a term. He's an independent chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, appointed by president and confirmed by Congress and serves for a term and the president couldn't even ask him to resign. So, this is — I hope this is not the first of sort of over the top statements."
