Perry Confronts Left-Wing Politico Reporter Over Story: 'You Got A Name?'

 

Rick Perry confronts Politico's Mike Allen in person over the publication's report that unnamed members of his senior staff are blaming the way the campaign was handled for what has resulted thus far. Transcript of the exchange below:
 
Mike Allen, Politico: "Governor, some of your staffers have told us that you ran this as a gubernatorial campaign for too long and you didn't look big enough, get big enough, fast enough. Do you take some responsibility?"
 
Gov. Rick Perry: "I don't know who you are talking to, so I can't respond unless you give me a name."
 
Allen: "These are members of your staff."
 
Perry: "You got a name?"
 
Allen: "Who say --"
 
Perry: "You got a name?"
 
[pause]
 
Allen: "You won't listen to --"
 
Perry: "You got a name?"
 
Allen: "Uh."
 
Perry: "If you don't have a name to tell me this individual said this, then I don't take that as a corroborating source."
