Topic: Rick Perry, Mitt Romney
Brief Summary: The article talks about how Rick Perry is becoming tough competition for Mitt Romney.
You can find this article Here
The question/ problem that is addressed in this article is can Mitt Romney handle Rick Perry. Rick Perry is turning up the heat in this years 2012 Presidential Election. The results and conclusions that may affect public policy is Gov. Brian Sandoval last month endorsed Perry, who quietly supported Nevada's first Hispanic governor during his 2010 campaign when Perry headed the Republican Governors Association. Highly popular, Sandoval could help Perry gain more GOP support, independents and Latinos. Votes like these could help Perry go more ahead of Romney in the elections. New information I have learned is that states that have more electoral votes can decide whether a candidate win or lose the presidential election. Also right when this article was published Romney was in the lead. This information is helpful because just by knowing who won over Iowa, New Hampshire and S. Carolina I can determine who will win or who will be close to winning the race. The position of the author of this article is positive. The author Laura seems like she is for all of the candidates to win. She only tells the reader information about the candidates and what they are doing to try to take the lead. This article can be very helpful to the political arena. If people do not already know about the electoral votes and how the three states that I mentioned before can make or break their career, candidates can learn how to shape their campaign around those states but t the same time not ignore the others.
