Rick Perry’s campaign has been facing mounting woes — most notably, a series of debate gaffes, including one on Wednesday, that have contributed to tanking poll numbers.

But Perry’s not giving up. According to the Times’ Jim Rutenberg, his campaign has bought nearly a million dollars worth of advertising time on Fox News in an attempt to reverse his campaign’s fading fortunes.

The massive ad buy means Perry’s ads will be seen up to seven times every day. The campaign has spent enough to esnure that Perry’s ads will bombard the network until Thanksgiving.
