Rick Perry May Run After All

[Joe Republic]

I believe Perry already broke a record for most executions under one Governor.

Which has something to do with him breaking another record among Texas governors: length of service.

Incidentally, I find his signature amusing:



It's like he only just learned how to write his name in cursive.

We never saw the map, as I recall, but they did mention in passing how only a handful of states voted.

Rick Perry is quite a tempting candidate for Republicans to nominate, but I'm just concerned that the Democrats would launch a smear campaign reminding voters of how bad the last two presidents from Texas were (although they weren't actual native born Texans but from Connecticut ).

Because stereotyping a state will definitely make independents vote democrat. That is the dumbest comment I have ever read on here.

Kind of like in 2004 when Bush insisted on referring to his opponent as 'the senator from Massachusetts', you mean?

I seriously think we need like a board devoted to United States History, because, myself included, many here don't know as much as they think they do.

I agree.  If only there was a board around here for such a purpose.
