Chris Wallace to Rick Perry: Your jobs plan is ‘terrible’

[blacken700]

Fox News’ Chris Wallace told Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry that his goal of creating 2.5 million jobs in his first term was “terrible.”

In Perry’s first campaign TV ad last week, the candidate promised to create at least 2.5 million jobs over four years.

“Governor, here’s what I don’t get about that 2.5 million jobs: 2.5 million jobs is terrible,” Wallace said to Perry Sunday. “That wouldn’t be nearly enough for the first four years of the administration. We looked at it. We would roughly need six million jobs in the first four years just to stay even with population growth. So, 2.5 million jobs, the unemployment rate would increase. Jimmy Carter created 10.5 million jobs in his first four years.”

“But how do you answer this question?” Wallace pressed. “Two and a half million jobs doesn’t even keep pace with population growth. Our unemployment rate would increase under this goal.”

The repub power structure realizes its time to rally around romney and defeat obama.

we all know, in our hearts, that obama would push perry's buttons until he had a fcking meltdown on national tv.

Romney will stay cool under that pressure.  Wallace knows.  Time for Perry to just milk it for $, etc, but he ain't winning.
