Predictions
Background
Texas Gov. Rick Perry is expected to end his presidential campaign Thursday and endorse Newt Gingrich, two sources confirm to POLITICO.
The discord within the Perry campaign was evident even as the candidate prepared to drop out.
Perry has been unpredictable before — back in Texas to reassess his campaign’s viability following his fifth place finish in the Iowa caucuses, Perry surprised even many in his inner circle by personally tweeting a message saying he was staying in the race, and heading to South Carolina to campaign.
It’s been a steep fall for Perry, who launched his bid here on Aug. 13 amid high expectations for his candidacy and the belief among political observers that he’d quickly become the new frontrunner. He announced his candidacy at the RedState convention here the same day as the Ames Straw Poll in Iowa.
