Governor Goodhair for President

I just caught a quick video of Sarah Palin at the Governor's Conference today. She was doing a news conference with Rick Perry, Governor of Texas. I wonder why Rick Perry isn't in the game for the presidency. It seems that Republicans are all about appearances - at least appearances that match up to the old Ozzie and Harriet archetypes that the older generation has encoded in their brain cells.

Rick Perry has a movie star persona. The late Mollie Ivins used to call him Governor Goodhair. He has that macho demeanor with sort of a James Bond look about him. Since the party is supposed to be drifting without a leader now, other than Palin, I think he would be a great choice. Can you just imagine him with Palin in 2012. It would be like Ken and Barbie. It would be like watching the Academy Awards for a couple of years. Let's start a draft Perry movement. All that beauty would be dazzling!
