he was going to reconsider. he's still running. but how can he do, do you think, in south carolina? >> i think it's going to be very difficult for perry to revive his campaign. look, i think he decided to come back after iowa because he saw that michellebackman was getting out. so he saw maybe an opening if he could get it together. but i think he's done. i think a lot of people have already seen how he conducts himself on the national stage. they've seen him in debates and the flubs that he's made are just way too much. and i think similarly with gingerich, the fact that he has been so nasty after he's said that he wanted to run a positive campaign has really shown people sort of what folks have called the old newt coming out where he can't help himself and where he becomes his own worst enemy. and i think ultimately republicans have always said that they do not want him as their nominee because he will absolutely self-destruct and we're seeing that hopping now.
