Not Walmart employees either.

Perry will get support of the Chinese factory owners who supply Walmart,

because its clear Perry would sell out his own grandmother given the chance.

There is nothing symbolic about getting some county GOP endorsement. You must be grabbing for straws to claim this as a positive for Perry. It must mean it's going to be hard to find anything positive about this turkey. Next thing you know ole' effing Trump will come back in the race.

Walmart Country? If this is meant to describe the conglomeration of retail shoppers who flocked to the stores of the Wal*Mart chain in order to avail themselves of trillions of dollars of lower cost products made in China, in place of more expensive (if frequently higher quality) similar products made in the USA--then screamed at government and corporations for letting "jobs go overseas"...then, thank you, in your ignorance, for supporting the evangelizing Texas governor who is now offering you lower cost schooling, lower cost labor for working heads of families and prayer as a substitute for proactive governance. Please, though--just keep down the hailing and moaning if your guy gets the Whitehouse and gives you, as before, what you asked for plus all the bad consequences you, in your small understanding of the real world, don't forsee.

Well, if Walmart is backing this one...I sure don't want to vote for him! Think about it! I've worked for Walmart before...NOT employee friendly! Treat you more like slaves!
