Perry must have thought he would have been successful at the Iowa Caucus, but according to his official remarks (view HERE)after his loss he doesn't know if he'll be continuing his campaign. I admit that it was somewhat of a surprise, knowing that Perry's strong Christian background is reflected in the voters in Iowa.
At least Perry was very cordial and respected the few voters he did have in Iowa, unlike his contender Michele Bachmann. He was very eloquent and thanked everyone in Iowa as well as those who travelled do participate in the caucus. He may have finished fifth in the caucuses, but it seemed as if he had finished second.
Although he nods to continuing to caucus in South Carolina, he has gone back to Texas to reassess his campaign with his staff. Admitting defeat gracefully might be the best thing for Perry. His "Strong" ads definitely were his downfall,with millions upon millions of views and millions upon millions of dislikes. He should back out now if he wants to save money and save his pride.
He said that being president wasn't "his purpose in life." It's his "duty to run." Why, then is he running, if he knows he won't become the president?
