Putting all his eggs in the South Carolina basket, Texas Gov. Rick Perry talks to a small crowd of about 40 people at a local Lizard's Thicket in Blythewood.

Perry stayed on course discussing his views on border security, eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and the Internal Revenue Service, and limiting the federal government.

Perry even weighed in on the U.S. Department of Justice involvement with South Carolina and the state's Voter ID law.

Perry said he thinks the decision should be left up to the states and asked why not require a valid state-approved photo ID in order to cast a ballot.

Guests of Thursday's event was mixed with strong supporters and those still making their decision on the candidate of their choice.

"I’m looking for a true leader, which Perry has proven great leadership as a governor, and I’m looking for someone who can mix things up a bit and have new ideas," said Blythewood resident Lauren Wells.

"I do have concerns about some of his stance on things. I’m not sold on him. I’m not 100 percent sold on anybody."
