WASHINGTON – Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry threw his support to the Lone Star State's junior senator Sunday, backing his bid for the Republican presidential nomination in an interview with Politico.com.
Perry, who abandoned his second run for the GOP nod last year, reiterated his backing on Twitter Monday, pronouncing the state's former solicitor general as "ready to be Commander-in-Chief on Day 1. I proudly endorse him for president!"
