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.”

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.”
