BREAKING NEWS: Perry to make BIG announcement next week

Email from Perry’s support group:

“Howdy Friends”

perry 2016“Please save the date.”

“Governor Rick Perry, Aggie, the longest-serving Governor of the great state of Texas and friend, will be making an announcement around mid day in San Antonio concerning his exciting future plans!,” the email continues. “Please join his family and closest friends on July 8th.”

“details to follow.”

I would not rule out an early bid for the 2016 Presidency.  Folks I have talked with in Texas tell me that the bumbler we saw on TV was not the real Rick Perry.  His is, they tell me, quite bright and ambitious.  He bumbled on TV because of inexperience with the format.

If so, a 2016 race makes sense.  In a field with wierd Repricans … Ran Paul, Ted Cruz, maybe Bachman, there are few credible adults running.  Rubio vs Perry, is likely to go to Perry because of Rubio’s race problem .. I doubt many white old men are going to vote for the Cubano convert from Mormonisms! Bush vs Perry?  I think Jeb is too liberal to run in his party and the Bush fatigue factor is not going away.  Chrsitie ??  He, like me is obese .. Repubs wnat a cowboy not a fatty.
