Is this the end for Rick Perry?

I think Perry has been done for a while. Voters want a confident and knowledgeable leader. Given Perry's previous lackluster performance at the various Republican debates, I think it will be almost impossible to recover from a gaffe of this magnitude.

Good lord, just watched it again. That is the end of his candidacy for sure. John Harwood was good to press him on that point.

His Flat Tax plan also stinks!

Yeah, I don't see how he comes back from this. It's not like this was a one-off; he's already got a reputation for being inarticulate and less-than-brilliant and this is just going to cement that. I think we've just witnessed a bona-fide campaign sinker.
