Bill Clinton defends Perry on immmigration
It’s hard to see how this helps Rick Perry in a brutal Republican primary contest, but former President Bill Clinton on Monday defended Perry’s position on immigration and his support of the Texas Dream Act.

From CNN:

Bill Clinton came to Rick Perry’s defense Monday over a law the Texas governor signed granting in-state college tuition to children of illegal immigrants.

The former two-term Democratic president said it makes his “skin crawl” when Perry’s Republican rivals attack him “for one of the best things he did.”

1. His immigration stand is what has sunk him with the crazies
Not the debates (piss poor debate performances are a badge of honor in the GOP). Clinton's endorsement will poke another hole in his capsizing boat.

2. I guess Bill still knows how to sink a Republican with judiciously administered praise.
