Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Perry Is Out, Endorses Gingrich



Well, what took him so long?  He was as dead as the Thanksgiving turkey and at about the same time.

I have no idea what practical effect this has on Gingrich, but I think this could push him over the top in SC.  Perry was polling about 4% in SC, and if 75% of his supporters go to Newt, that could tip a close race.  Unfortunately, given Governor Goodhair's demonstrated political acumen, this likely means that Marianne Gingrich's interview tonight will destroy him so completely that his career will only be detectable on the sub-atomic level.

My condolences to the people of Texas who now have to live with this colossal idiot again, but y'all voted for him so...
