1. No, but he'll raise a lot of campaign cash off of it

[lsewpershad]

12. More importantly

he is not a democrat.

[wyldwolf]

13. yes, so true!

[NightWatcher]

2. let him take a plea bargain for 2 years in prison

Just enough to get him off the front page, skip this election cycle, and make him a convicted felon.

Threaten him with 100 years but let him take 2 as a deal.

3. Not while he's on his home turf.

It won't happen. He will turn it around in his favor and exploit it as dirty politics.

4. It's Texas, so no. nt

[hrmjustin]

[Takket]

9. maybe if he painted his skin black and stole some cigars... but not for this.

oh... I guess it isn't fair to say Brown was convicted either... since technically he never was.

10. Perry is not as popular in Texas as he used to be

The trial will take place in Austin where Perry is not that popular

[Avalux]

11. Not a popular choice, but I'm saying YES.

I live here, and agree with the special prosecutor - "the law is the law". Perry is going down.

[Blue Idaho]

14. No - but it will derail his presidential bid.

This guy is worthless under pressure. He will look far less than presidential as this thing drags on.
