Below the fold I’ve embedded a YouTube of Texas Governor Rick Perry on the stump. His opening message is that he and the Tea Party are not angry, they’re indignant. He then lists all the things they’re indignant about. I don’t know how you can be indignant without being angry, but I guess there’s a sliver of difference there. I also guess Perry is feeling a little defensive about the fact that the Tea Party has never been more unpopular. He wants the support of the Tea Party wing of the GOP but he doesn’t want to come off like Grandpa Simpson.
Watching Perry, he’s uncomfortably similar to Bush is style, accent, and swagger. What’s frightening is that he doesn’t lose.
