trentrend and i thought rick perry made a very smart political play. he came in as the governor of texas with $20 million, $30 million. he flamed out as a candidate. he was looking to go home from texas with a tail tuck pd between his legs, and he threw whatever political weight he had had left behind gingrich rather than finish in first place. so he can say you brought me into the race to stop mitt romney s coronation. and i was able to help do that at the end. speaking of romney on tuesday, he made the statement he believes he pays around 15%. let s play along with that. it s probably closer to the 15% rate. because my last ten years i ve my income comes overwhelmingly from investments.
