The objective behind calling out the TNG has been accomplished:

Early 2016 polling, as I’ve said before, is of limited utility. However, dramatic movement for or against a candidate is worth noting. In that department, Texas Gov. Rick Perry stands out. He is in a statistical tie for first, up five points in a month, in the latest CNN poll. We’ve noted his great improvement and impressive performance on immigration and foreign policy. Others seem to agree.

"Impressive performance on immigration."  In this case, "performance" is the sort that occurs on a stage.

I would like to be proved wrong to the extent that Perry has had a real change of heart from supporting illegals' gobbling up of taxpayer dollars, their free movement, and their displacement of Americans in jobs and the culture.  Given past performance, that is not the way to bet.

No worries. Whatever happens you'll find some way to be irritated about it, so you're safe.   :laugh:
