I told you that we were in early days on the Republican nomination. I've linked to a story in the LA Times (which is a decidedly left of centre rag), but they included one very important piece of information:
"With his fiscal (and reportedly personal) stinginess, no-new taxes and pro-business climate, Perry's state has created more new American jobs in the last four years alone than all the other 49 states combined."

That is strong. In the current environment, VERY strong.
Newt has imploded, and from other sources on the web, 12 of his top operatives have jumped to Perry even though he hasn't declared yet.
People may want to brush up on their Perry info. He is a State's rights conservative with a libertarian bent that can actually get elected.
Still early days, but things are looking more interesting.
