Get Rick

Tonight, Texas governor Rick Perry finally got a taste of what it’s really like to really be a front-runner in a GOP presidential race. During his first presidential debate last week, Perry locked horns with Mitt Romney and had to defend his record on job creation and his rhetoric on Social Security. Tonight, for the first time, Perry was seriously challenged from the right on his immigration record and executive order mandating that sixth grade girls receive a vaccine to prevent HPV, a sexually transmitted disease that causes cervical cancer.
