Gov. Perry endorses Giuliani for president

AUSTIN — Gov. Rick Perry this morning endorsed former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani for president, saying on Fox News that he would campaign for the man he believes is best-suited to lead America during “probably one of the most important times in our history with a war on terror going on.”

“For the last six months, I have cogitated, I’ve looked, I’ve studied these candidates — some of them I know very well — and came to the conclusion that the individual who can lead America with clarity, the individual who has the experience, the individual who cleaned up a city that was absolutely on its back is mayor Rudy Giuliani,” Perry said.

“I’m proudly and excitedly going to campaign for him and work for him,” Perry said, appearing on Fox & Friends for what was touted by the news channel as a “humongous Texas-sized announcement.”

Perry, who promotes his record as a conservative, made a reference to a difference in views on some issues with Giuliani, who has backed the right to abortion and gay rights.

I never had a lot either FOR or AGAINST Rick Perry, until now…

Giuliani is NOT a Conservative, he’s a lot closer to the Dems than he is the Repubs, the guy is a RINO, a Republican In Name Only…

Excuse me for MY ignorance but I really thought Perry had a bit more sense than that, some are already speculating that this is nothing more than Perry applying for the position of Vice President if Giuliani gets the nod, I think they may be correct…

I guess I was wrong about Perry, and this is an excellent example of WHY no one needs to EVER vote a straight party ticket, vote for the best candidate, NOT the party, and if Perry thinks Giuliani is the BEST, then Rick Perry is a fool…
