Will Rick Perry run for governor again?
Speculation is mounting that Gov. Rick Perry will run for yet another four-year term in 2010, which could give him an unprecedented 14 years in the highest state office. Sources tell PoliTex that Texas First Lady Anita Perry has given the guv a green light if he wants to run again. Meanwhile, watchful eyes have begun to notice a new bumper sticker on the automobiles of some of Perry's supporters. It sports Perry's trademark cattle brand-looking "R" and says: "Again in '10.''
"They are not ours, but we've seen a growing number of them around town,'' said Perry spokesman Robert Black, who remained coy about Perry's political destiny.
"The governor has not decided what his future plans would be, but if there is one thing everyone should know about Rick Perry by now, it's that you never underestimate him,'' Black said.

As my first post was censored, I'll try again.
Kinky! Kinky! Where are you when we need you? Ten years is enough! If Perry is elected again the Alamo will be up for sale.

God forbid we put up with him again. Why don't we just reinstate Dubya instead.

God, I hope he doesn't run again - as indicated by the carryings-on of his troglodyte appointment to the Chair of the State land board, Perry is an idiot in his dotage.

Please, not again. Just what we need, 4 more years of underhanded Perrymandering, Craddick-butt-kissing, sell-our-highways-abroad "government." If we're going to have a Republican, at least get an upstanding, conservative, honest one. The only worse likely choice for Texas would be to put Bush back in the Governor's Mansion.

If you're going to rip off Burka, at least give him some attribution.....

The people of Texas will laugh perry into obscurity if he even mentions running again in public. The Texas people will not be conned by him again. That is a concrete fact. Take all the fake polls you want. We Texans are done with slick rick!
