Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) has stopped paying his presidential campaign staff, the Texas Tribune and Washington Post reported late Monday night.

The lack of paid labor was initially thought to affect Perry staffers in South Carolina. However, the two newspapers cited an anonymous source saying that the issue has spread to the former governor’s offices in Iowa and New Hampshire, as well as his campaign headquarters in Austin, Texas.

Katon Dawson, the chair of Perry’s efforts in South Carolina, confirmed that he and his five fellow staff members there had “moved to volunteer status.”

According to the Tribune, aides for the former governor and a PAC supporting him vowed to carry on, with Perry scheduled to appear in South Carolina on Thursday and Iowa next week.

Time for Perry to bow out.

Wow! Not only is Perry owned by the PAC's, his staff is now owned by them. Wonder when his wife will start getting grocery money from them.....

Perry said to be Wiki-prepping his " I shall not seek, nor will I accept" speech

I don't think he is dropping out. He is just not getting enough donated to the campaign....his PAC is still doing pretty good. His donors don't want anyone to know they support him.

He took his fake glasses off and they realized who he was.

His campaign is most likely going to fold within the next 6 months or so.
