If Rick Perry isn’t going to back off his claim that Social Security is unconstitutional, I have to wonder if any of the other candidates have the balls to aggressively defend Social Security and point out what a liability it will be next year to have a candidate who won’t preserve and defend the program. Perry’s position is incredibly unpopular. It would be far harder to overcome than any position I can even imagine a Democratic taking. I don’t even think running on a strong gun control platform would be nearly as debilitating as running against Social Security. What do you think?
