LOL Texas.
LOL yourself.

The man jumped into the grown up pool before he was ready to take off the floaties. Doesn't mean there's anything wrong with the state itself. Don't let your irrational hatred of GWB start turning into jabs at all things American/Texas/etc. That's just misplaced rage. Your therapist should've told you that by now.

I correct myself, the world does not need three incoherent Texan drunks.

Also, shouldn't you have voted in a grown-up as governor?

My therapist and I are fine, I don't tell her what to do, she doesn't mess with my head - its all good.

He does a fine job as a governor. tbh, this presidential campaign is causing a lot of people here to go .

Maybe its just the contrast, him debating with grown-ups?

Frankly this is the only worthwhile Texan export

You're saying the GOP candidates are grown ups now? Who are you, and what have you done with Dilbert?

The guy's never debated well. I don't recall him debating Kay Bailey Hutchison in the last Gubernatorial race, or his Dem opponent. He's just completely self-destructed in this campaign. He does well campaigning. It's the debating that kills him, for some reason. Needs to just pull the plug, tbh.

It's like each one of them are crashing one by one. In the end the last republican standing will be Ron Paul and he'll sweep the presidency in a surprise victory. Then it will become mandatory for children to eat lsd as toddlers.

Public speaking is pretty important for a politician. Honestly I think this guy gets destroyed by Obama in a debate. .. and it's not necessarily because I think Obama is exceptional at public speaking (he does have his moments though). It's just that Perry that bad.

Don't need to. One can be amazingly intelligent and a terrible public speaker (and the opposite is true, as well--I've seen both cases). I'm not saying that's the case here or with GWB...I'm saying one is not an accurate indication of the other.

^This. Except he will never get the chance to debate Obama.

The thing with Perry is, he can clearly articulate his position outside of the debate format. He just falls completely apart when debating. So it's not public speaking, per se. It's just debating.

Anyone can memorize a speech. It takes actual knowledge and skill to debate.

Yes.. that is what separates a talking points mouthpiece from someone who can actually defend their opinion. It's harder to spin when you are on the spot.

No doubt. I was getting more at the public speaking aspect and the different types of public speaking. Debates are where your ability to clearly articulate your position from your knowledge, vice repeat rehearsed lines, comes through. But again, some people are simply paralyzed by the thought of speaking in public, period. That's why it's not necessarily an indication of intelligence or ability to govern.

Perry has made far more than one public speech.

Not defending Perry at all here. He's done. I think I've made that clear.

I'm not saying that it is. But the fact of the matter, like it or not, is that it is important during an election cycle. If the GOP is to retake the WH it will need a persuasive debater in order to get votes.
