The Romney campaign has made Gov. Perry their top target in the GOP primary.

Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney has staked his presidential campaign on the idea that as a job creator in the private sector, he's the most qualified candidate to turn the U.S. economy around.

To counter Texas Governor Rick Perry's claim of being the top job creator in the GOP field, the Romney campaign has launched a website dedicated to tearing down many of Perry's claims of success during his time in Texas.

Careerpolitician.com gives the Romney campaign's take on Perry's record on illegal immigration. It also looks at everything from the state's high rate of uninsured people to Perry's comments on Social Security to whether or not Perry can take credit for the state's jobs creation.

The site also houses all of Romney's Rick Perry attack videos...like this one:

So far no web-based rebuttal from the Perry campaign.
