The decision from Rick Perry comes off the back of a report that suggests Republican donors are not willing to back Michele Bachmann or Mitt Romney and they want both Sarah Palin and Rick Perry to stand to give the Republican party the greatest chance of beating president Obama in 2012 as well as adding some life into a so far drab nomination campaign.

....Snip....

The field is largely set but for the two headline acts - Rick Perry and Sarah Plain. Both Palin and Perry have indicated over the past few days that they will run for the nomination but have yet to make a formal stand...

Look! In Libtard hackwriter land, every team gets a female conservative and a male RINO. Can't have any truely conservative tickets.

By the inventors of Glee!

I will pass on either of those steaming piles.

This would fly though:

...and which one is going to want to take the VP role? I see a major flaw in this idea.

My worry is too many conservatives spitting the vote, and thus losing the primary to a liberal or moderate.

If we’ve got to go with a RINO on the ticket—at least make him Palin’s veep!

A frog could fly if it had wings, maybe, possibly, almost maybe, could be, however, nothing fact based at this time.

They are assuming that from the recent Newsweek interview.

Nothing new here. Perry is also taking formal steps in preparing to enter the race. Look for Perry to enter it alone.

Remember, this comes from the UK.

Not really, from the body of the article it apppears to be a reference to her Newsweek interview where "she gave the biggest hint yet" that she intends to run.

Thanks for the clarification.

I assumed that the Newsweak article was the basis of their speculation.

At this point they’re all entering alone. No one signs on as a team.

Neither one; the article is speculating that both will seek the GOP presidential nomination.
