Perry Raises $75,000 At Maryland Breakfast

Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) met Maryland Republicans on Tuesday morning at a breakfast fundraiser in Baltimore.

Dozens laid out at least $2,500 to attend the meeting that marked the beginning of a fundraising swing through the D.C. region. Perry also drew some surprising endorsements and seemed able to split a Maryland state GOP that many expected would lean heavily toward a more moderate candidate, such as former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney.

According to several in attendance at the closed-door fundraiser, a crowd of nearly 50 that included former governor Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. (R), several state lawmakers and a who's who of Maryland business leaders applauded most loudly when Perry promised to repeal "Obama Care."

The only problem with Perry is that he would support a national version of the DREAM act - giving discount tuition to illegals.....
