To much thinking in the article....Labor Day....the kids are back to school and the the second team can beat up on each other for three more weeks.... the press can savage Perry for a while... How much will she raise in the first week????

It is between Mitt, Perry and Palin...I see a Palin/Perry or Perry/Palin....

She should head the energy department and create a two million jobs drilling for oil and building pipelines and refining..

Texas Governor by Texas constitution is a weak position with very few powers , mostly just the power of veto. The power in Texas is in the legislature and various elected secretaries. When Bush ran , it was thrown up a lot that he didn't have the experience to be President , being Gov of Texas , basically a figurehead. And looking back at Bush , looking at the many mistakes he made and his entire second term , I guess being Gov of Texas as a figurehead didn't prepare him for the WH. Texas Gov is mostly a cheerleading job.

HELLO???

Texas governorship is considered to be a "weak governor" office. Texas Governors do not have the authority or responsibility of other governors.

Really.
