Perhaps the best thing that he could do right now is keep quiet and let the attention stay on Herman Cain and his issues. That being said, perhaps the best thing the other Republicans could do for their own chances is let Rick Perry keep committing these gaffes and knock himself out of the race.

Is Rick Perry His Own Worst Enemy?
So if you all were watching the debate tonight, you would have seen this little piece of political gaffe. It seems that despite everything, Rick Perry seems to be the one who does the most damage to himself. Between flip-flopping on the question of appearing on debates, and appearing to be in an altered mental state at the New Hampshire event, Rick Perry seems to be digging his own political grave.

It seems that Perry is caught in a catch-22. Due to his earlier failures, he must be aggressive (since Romney does not make many gaffes); however, he seems unable to act without making a costly gaffe which kills his chances to win the nomination. Get siked for for a Romney nomination (though it seems no one is).
The most interesting thing is that dispite Perry, Cain and Bachmann's rise and fall in the polls, Romney's numbers have not increased at all. Who will get those votes if candidates (like Perry or Bachmann) drop out.
