Rick Perry hangs out with Glenn Beck, plans NYC fundraising trip on Astini News

Rick Perry hung out with former FOX News host Glenn Beck over the weekend. The two spent time together during the Lone Survivors Foundation Gala in Houston. The Republican presidential candidate is a favorite for Tea Partiers, and he seemed to make a quick friend with Beck. The two exchanged Twitter posts about their visit, each calling the other "great."

The weekend gala is just a tiny break for Perry as he begins a week of schmoozing with Big Apple big wigs about his bid for the Oval office.

According to Business Insider, Perry will be in New York City this week for fundraising receptions thrown by Arthur Zeckendorf of Zeckendorf Realty, and former AIG head Maurice "Hank" Greenberg, whose reception will cost you $2,500-a-head.

Banking firm founder Charles Glazer, who served as U.S. ambassador to El Salvador under George H.W. Bush, and New Jersey real estate developer Cheryl Halpern are expected to attend the events.
