“New Orleans, Louisiana (CNN) - It’s 10 a.m. local time and it’s already 89 degrees outside.
Inside, presidential politics will be heating up in a few hours, when Rick Perry will take the stage here at the Republican Leadership Conference 2011.”
Presumably he already spoke by now.
Article also mentions that Perry is not on the ballot of the straw poll, but Palin is.
Last year Romney won the poll with one more vote than Ron Paul. So I am not sure how much does this mean anyway.
That right there tells you everything you need to know. It's a rhinoceros convention, and Rick is their new mascot.
Rick Perry, the new brass idol of the RiNOceri.
