Didn't See That Coming at All

Following the second Republican debate, I'd concluded that this race was Gov. Rick Perry's to lose.  Well, with Herman Cain, Herman Cain, winning the Florida straw poll vote, coupled with the panning across the conservative punditry of Perry's performance in that third debate in Florida, Perry seems to be on a quick path to obscurity, if he doesn't sort out a way to right his ship.  Meanwhile, I do find it hilarious that Perry's Achilles' heels appear to be his effort to battle cervical cancer, and his effort to help out the children of illegal immigrants through the Texas version of the Dream Act, two programs that I think have been useful in Texas.
