“Good grief, I really like Perry and think it would be great if he ran for President - but its long past time for these waffling potential candidates to either get in the race or announce that they arent running this time around. All this dropping endless trial balloons, hinting they might run, teasing about future decisions, etc, is just tiring and annoying. This country is near bankrupt and spiraling down the crapper - we dont have time for a bunch of political games. Get in the race or shut up about it.”
Why?
You ask why politicians (Palin, Perry) waiting so long to get in?
Money!
The shorter the campaign is the less it costs. Obama has oodles from shady sources so it is better to swamp the airwaves when they have enough $ to fight Obama’s ads.
Plus, it gives the MSM less time to put a target on their back.
