It will be interesting to see.  I would bet that Perry's people are already asking him if he is interested.  I know that they seem to be really good friends and have spoken highly of each other in the past.   The Republican Party has some folks that are worth running and would make a decent President, but I think the parties strongest lies within the newbies and young guns.  It may be a while yet before we see that guy that will knock our socks off.

I'm in agreeance with the first part of your comment above but I'm not so sure about the latter part; I heard Sen. Marco Rubio's (R-FL) speech at the Reagan Library this week and it pretty-much rocked to use the vernacular.

He is the next Reagan.

Yes, I said it.

He was one of the ones that I was thinking of.  I was thinking about age when I said it might be a while, but then again it might not matter.

Paul, Rubio, Jindal, Hunter, Ryan and some others have me a little less apprehensive about the party's future.

Age...and political seasoning.  I understand.

I think there's something exceptional about Rubio.  He's got the intelligence and charisma.  He's going to be a political force of nature.

The "word on da skreets" is that he will be the VP for whomever wins the nomination...and he'll be a phenomenal choice.

I'm going to make a prediction that we'll have Perry-Rubio running against The Pharaoh.  Of course there are a lot of debates and a few more months to go before the Iowa caucus and New Hampshire primary.

I like Rubio, hell, I like all those I listed.  Once again, they give me hope that the future of the party is in good hands.
