Perry Watch: Rumor de jour — Laura Ingraham says she’s been told that Rick Perry’s going to run for
Houston Chronicle ^ | May 25, 2011 | Chronicle Blog

Conservative radio talk show host and best-selling author Laura Ingraham got tongues wagging in Texas today when she declared that Rick Perry is running for president in 2012.

Ingraham was doing an interview with conservative Indiana congressman Mike Pence when she let loose with her Perry “scoop.” According to the conservative blog Ace of Spades HQ, Ingraham revealed that “she knows someone very connected to Perry, and that guy says he’s in.”

OK, no named sources here. And this is third hand gossip, at best. But what the hay? Ingraham has been a big Perry fan for a long time. He appeared on her show to bash President Obama, federal immigration policy, perceived federal “Texas-bashing” and the federal response to Texas wildfires.

We had to replaced the title you created

"Laura Ingraham: Rick Perry is Running for President"

with the title found above the blog article at the linked source.

Please do not alter titles nor create your own to prevent duplication and pulled threads. Thanks.

Tell me why. I don’t remember why so many Freepers don’t like Perry. Rush seems to like the idea of a Perry candidacy.

he did a few dumb things many years ago (tried to push some sort of vaccine on kids, and some toll way crap) but other than that he has governed about as conservatively as W did.

Some people want perfection, I will settle for zeros defeat by a 90% conservative.

We don’t need another RINO/G.W.Bush type in the White House. Enough is enough.

Palin/Cain OR Cain/Palin in 2012.

Rush seems to like the idea of a Perry candidacy.

Is this the same Rush that made Debra Medina appear to be a truther during her bid for the governors seat?

Perry has his faults, but he’s electable, articulate (albeit with a Texas accent)and a proven campaigner.

The rest of the present field doesn’t have a snowball’s chance, IMO.

RE: "Rush seems to like the idea of a Perry candidacy."

I got the impression Mark Levin (in one of his radio broadcasts a week or two ago) was interested Perry running for president too... I didn't hear the whole segment though.

So far, there is only one person against illegal immigration and amnesty. That would be Michele Bachmann. The rest of them aren’t good on the issue.

Interesting. So everyone here much prefers Mitt Romney to Rick Perry who is helming a vital state with low unemployment and no PerryCare. Everyone agrees that it’s Mittens’ turn. Or is it that Tim Pawlenty is so very exciting?
