This post by elizajane notes that News Corp’s WSJ has made a good start debunking Perry. This post too.

you can debunk him on the facts, but since when has creationism, fundamentalism and AGW denial ever been based on facts? Since when has GOP economic pooicy been based on economic facts?

He represents the ideology the GOP is trying to sell us, and does it better than any candidate running. Which is why I am sure he will take the nomination.

Whether they can spin his record enough to sell a mojority of the general electorate will depend on a lot of things, but a weak economy combined with a climate of fear, insecurity and mistrust will do a lot to promote their ends.
