That 0.7% folks. Texas Gov. Rick Perry called President Obama a “socialist” in a GOP debate over the weekend. Now the verdict for another Tea Party candidate running for President is in: Perry only received 1,735 votes — less than .7% of the vote in New Hampshire. Twenty thousand votes less than the next candidate, Newt Gingrich and 93,000 votes less than the winner, Mitt Romney. Is the verdict in on the Tea Party? More to come in South Carolina.
