Perry Stay in Race After Iowa Bedlam Debate
Rick Perry, after a fifth place Iowa finish, said he would stay in the Republican race despite expectations he would quit. He toured New Hampshire but planned no further primary bid there. Analysts cite reasons from party strategy to PAC spending and possible deals with Mitt Romney, while Perry defends his record and questions Congress. Reports note Perry draws a large security detail and faces scrutiny over retirement pay while campaigning. He filed a federal suit against Virginia ballot requirements after failing to meet signatures. Contact details accompany local coverage.

Constitution vs gridlock clashes over watchdogs and appointments
