    Rick Perry: People Come To Texas For The Health Care

    The fact of the matter is, Texas has has 16 Medicaid waivers, on par with other states its size and just last week received a thumbs up from the Obama administration “on a proposed overhaul of the Texas Medicaid program.” If the federal government grants its final approval, it will be Texas’ 17th Medicaid waiver. So the problem Texas faces isn’t one of flexibility — it’s the state’s unwillingness to expand its Medicaid program — despite escalating demand — the proliferation of low-income jobs and a relatively small rate of employer-based health care options — and a fairly high immigrant population. Meanwhile, eligibility rates remain narrow and Perry continues to undercut provider reimbursements, creating mass doctor shortages.

    But of course, if Perry believes that the existing Medicaid program is hurting the state, he should be offering alternatives — something he has yet to do as a presidential candidate or governor. The fact of the matter is, for all the GOP’s talk of states as “laboratories of democracy” and innovation,

    Rick Perry debate highlights

    I can picture Perry's campaign handlers backstage just staring with their mouths open in disbelief that their candidate can flub even the most "GED" parts of a debate.

    He should have just stopped at "Was it before he was before?" and gathered his thoughts but he just went downhill from there

    We need a President that believes in American exceptionalism again.
    I believe America is exceptional. But I don't think that we are the "best hope for mankind", because that implies humanity is on the brink or something.

    I saw Perry failing from a mile away. Can't win only on looks and charisma. There's a reason he never enters these debates.

    You can win on even less. Just ask Barack Obama.

    American exceptionalism is fundamentally what's wrong with America and therefor what's wrong with the planet. Of course, chauvinst, nativist, racist Yoni is reliably, totally wrong, yet again.

    I think Romney picks Cain as VP. If those guys can't shore up unemployment non one can.
