Title: Hmmmm, Rick Perry to announce in late August

For months, Republican activists, donors, elected officials, and even voters have dithered about their choices in the 2012 presidential primary contest. This is especially true of grass-roots conservatives who have clamored for someone else to enter the fray, only to be disappointed by the likes of Indiana Rep. Mike Pence, South Dakota Sen. John Thune, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee -- all of whom declared this year they would not be candidates, in that order.

But they may have their man in Rick Perry, a telegenic and booming political presence who boasts executive experience as the nation's longest serving governor, as well as a healthy level of support from the tea party faithful. The governor's wife, Anita, has given him her blessing for a national campaign, and now that anticipation of a Perry candidacy is reaching a fever pitch, he is poised to jump into the race next month.

Why wait?

He's getting the hair stylist lined up. (There's a waiting list, evidently.)

Well, the Breck girl will be giving up his spot at the salon soon enough. Maybe the hairdresser can fit Perry in then. :tongue:
I think it's a good thing to see successful governors run for President. Governor ClownBoy from CA, on the other hand, geez louise, how in the heck did he get elected TWICE? :banghead:

Never trust a man that spends more than a woman on his hairdo.
