Rick Perry is tacky, unmannered, and he wasn't raised right.
Those are his good traits.
Any one of those is a mortal sin, and he hit the trifecta.
Beyond being the gold standard for jackasses, he is beyond stupid. Who in their right political minds attacks someone personally who is riding a huge wave of popularity?
He may get props from his herd of nutjobs, but he added fuel to the fire that Wendy Davis started. Women in Texas are objecting to being treated as nonentities. Many of them may have been irritated, but they are now starting to express their anger openly. This is not confined to Texas.
Every time Perry or anybody else makes noxious remarks about women or tries to pass restrictive legislation, more women are prompted to get off their butts and begin to publicly react.
The importance of Wendy Davis and her filibuster cannot be overstated. An individual to rally around is priceless. More than one movement has been started because of something an individual did or something done to them.
The fact that she is such a positive, fearless, and outspoken leader only adds to the groundswell. Her actions are not only great for the prochoice movement but also to other people trying to fight injustice.
Hopefully, she will gain higher office. However, even if she faded away, Davis has already accomplished more than many and would always be a beacon to point the way.
