JOE SCARBOROUGH: You put that in a 30-second commercial, that Rick Perry does not believe that the United States Senate should not be voted on democratically, you put there that he calls Social Security, he says, a Ponzi scheme that causes, quote, violence to American values. You know, I’m kind of thinking, he might lose the middle. There’s some people out there [who say] Joe Scarborough’s not a real Republican. Which I guess, you can only define yourself as a real Republican in 2011 by supporting candidates that can not win. If that is your definition of a real Republican, I’m not a real Republican. Because, guess what? I like winning.
