Texas Governor Rick Perry, who has acknowledged his previous Republican presidential debate performances were subpar, had an embarrassing moment in last night's debate in Rochester, Michigan. "Commerce, Education and the – what's the third one there? Let's see," the Texas governor said during a debate Wednesday night.
