PJ Tatler is breaking the story: Texas Governor Rick Perry is announcing Saturday night that he is a candidate for the GOP nomination for president of the United States. My friend Cliff Stewart, who, like me, is a former Texas resident, has been touting a Perry candidacy to me for weeks, giving Perry credit for the robust Texas economy. Now we can get to know Mr. Perry better. Meanwhile, cagey Sarah Palin waits in the wings.
Update: Lefty sniping at Perry has begun. Mike Littwin, the Denver Post's "political junkie," refers to Perry as "secessionist Governor Rick "America Second" Perry." He also points out that although Perry listed his income as $182,318 in "one year," he gave only $626 to charity and "$400 of that came in non-cash gifts to (wink-wink) Goodwill."
