Did Perry promise not to run for President if re-elected? Is he running for President? What does that make him?
No, he never promised not to run. He said he couldnt think of anything better than being gov of Texas. the rest of his comments on whether to run or not were after he had been re-elected, and his typical answer was “not at this time.”
People can change their mind on things like that, and unforeseen events can play an impact in those decisions.

I know I know it rhymes with flier. :)
LOL
Well, he’ll only quit if he wins, so you’ve got him in the “win” column apparently.
But seriously, I really wish y’all wouldn’t go there. It’s too easy to point out that the Alaskans who voted for Palin probably had a reasonable expectation that she’d serve out her full term when they elected her. Perhaps she didn’t specifically state she would fulfill her first and only term but it really doesn’t need to be said. She didn’t and I don’t really care what excuse she had. Perry has been Governor for 10 years!
I like you DJ. Perhaps when it becomes apparent that she’s not running you’ll join me on the Cain Train!
It makes him smart. Circumstances change - Obama has declared war on Texas. The best thing Perry can do now for Texas is defeat Obama. And he has the fire-in-the-belly hatred for Obama to really take him on and defeat him. I think with Perry, it’s personal with him and Obama because of the war the little tyrrant has declared on our state. And that’s what I want in a candidate - someone who takes the fight directly to Obama with a real fire-in-the-belly determination. He knows Texas will not survive 4 more years of Obama - and probably our country won’t either. But if The One wins, he will set his evil sights even more on Texas and do all he can to destroy our state.
