Rick Perry has proven himself to be a totally terrible debater.
Despite all resulting the bad press and hemorrhaging public support,
the presidential candidate drew attention to his foible by challenging
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, a figure reviled in Republican circles,
to a one-on-one face-off.

“I am in Washington Monday and would love to engage you in a public debate
about my Overhaul Washington plan versus the congressional status quo,”
Perry wrote to Pelosi in an intentionally leaked letter obtained by GOP 12′s Christian Heinze.

Taking pity on Perry, though, Pelosi cordially declined his invitation.

“Re: Gov. Perry –
Monday I’ll be in Portland.
Later visiting labs in CA. That’s 2.
I can’t remember the 3rd thing,”
