Just one more thing about Rick Perry’s future...

     The question of whether or not Rick Perry takes another shot at the White House is still up in the air. But after a sub-par performance in 2012 against considerably weak candidates does he stand a chance against an even more well versed competition in 2016? The frequently mentioned list of possible 2016 Republican candidates includes Marco Rubio, Chris Christi, Jeb Bush, Paul Ryan, Rand Paul, Bobby Jindal and, in the Republican version of the role Barack Obama played in the 2008 Democratic primary, Ted Cruz. A much harder hitting cast than Michelle Bachmann, Herman Cain and Rick Santorum in 2012. Christie and Bush however are distrusted by the majority of the Republican base, and Cruz appears to appeal across all bases. I can see that Republicans who might run in 2016 seem to be stronger candidates but each will have their own weaknesses. One person has to win the nomination obviously and who knows it very well may be a Republican candidate. However, the opponents that Perry would likely face may not be as strong as some are saying. As for the Democrats it seems Hillary Clinton is their only likely option. The author says that Rick Perry will likely not win the Republican nomination but says he has a chance.  

    I don't know anything about Jody Seaborn, the author of this article, but I am going to assume since he believes Perry would still have a chance even after his piss-poor performance in 2012 that he is in fact, an idiot. I assume Seaborn is a Republican living in Austin therefore, outnumbered greatly. He failed to bring up some of the events that prevented Rick Perry from being a powerful candidate including his poor ability of public speaking without making himself appear to be a complete jackass. Also, he blamed his disastrous presidential campaign on having undiagnosed sleep apnea. He's been governing the third largest state for over ten years with undiagnosed sleep apnea and now all the sudden when you have to answer questions this is a problem? We can assume his dog ate his homework as well.
