Rick Perry a répondu calmement et fermement à une question sur les nombreuses exécutions capitales dans son état pendant le dernier débat entre les candidats républicains. La foule a applaudit à plusieurs reprises. L'auteur d'un blogue sur le site du NY Times croit que la réponse du gouverneur pourrait entraîner des retombées fâcheuses pour la suite de la campagne Perry. Voici l'extrait:
"For some — in this case, opponents of the death penalty — this was sort of a double whiplash moment, a gasp within a gasp that may have been more confusing than mobilizing. Because which was more disturbing (or heartening, depending on your political view)? Perry’s unbowed defense of the “thoughtful” trial process in Texas and the clear expression of his untroubled mind in the face of possible moral doubt and complexity (i.e., Have I facilitated the death of an innocent human?)? Or the audience applause that bracketed the exchange, the rousing audience cheers for an aggressively applied death penalty? In California, mind you, not Texas.
Let’s look at the applause, the “execution cheer,” if you will. Because any number of analysts might have expected Perry to say what he said, but the cheer was a surprise — a welcome sort for some, but unwelcome for others."
