Perry’s Political Obituary Has Not Yet Been Written

Although Perry lost in Iowa, he is optimistic and is looking forward for the other primaries. On the night of the results in Iowa, Perry said that he was going to assess his future in the primaries. When Perry said that, everyone thought that he dropped out of the race, but he tweeted a couple days later saying, "And the next leg of the marathon is the Palmetto State ... Here we come, South Carolina!!!” Perry is optimistic and believes he still has a chance in states that have "real primaries." He is focusing his attention in South Carolina and briefly stopping by New Hampshire. This basicallyshow that Perry can come back and most likely to create an upset, since he has had stronger support and was considered at top nominee. The author takes a approach that shows that Perry has a chance to succeed, since he only has to target Romney, and the other candidates has fatal flaws that can ruin their campaign. In a political arena, candidates have one more thorn in their side since Perry did not give up in the race. Even if Perry does not win the race, he might take a majority of Santorum's votes, who is a fellow conservative, so Santorum and other candidates have to distinguish themselves from Perry.
