Perry tries to distance himself from debate audience's "let them (uninsured) die" cheer

1. Does he know (or care)
that the people shouting that (or applauding his 235 executions) are the people whom he's campaigning to represent?

2. Please help build Perry: The File at DU. It can be used for research
into Perry's transgressions for debate, for further investigation, etc.

Just reply to OP with links to similar stories and it will be updated twice week:
