Perry in 2012?

With Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels out of the 2012 stakes, it appears that another governor may step into the ring, albeit reluctantly. There's talk that Texas Governor Rick Perry may attempt to seek the 2012 nomination.

Now there's talk that this is the perfect time for Perry, who has served since 2000.

Perry is a fierce partisan, and his brand of conservatism makes George W. Bush's look truly compassionate. But, for stout conservatives, he's got a good story to tell. It will go like this:

Under Rick Perry, the state’s longest-serving governor, Texas continues to lead the nation in job creation. And despite a record influx of job seekers from other states, the unemployment rate in the state continues to be below the national average. How did Texas become home to more Fortune 500 companies than any state in the nation? According to Perry: “Texas’ low taxes, reasonable and predictable regulatory climate, fair legal system, and skilled workforce have made the Lone Star State a beacon for job creation and economic growth.”

Hmmmm.
