RIP, Rick Perry's Presidential Campaign

Poor Rick Perry, he looks so ponderous and careworn. Photo from Gawker
Time to include Rick Perry in the list of casualties from the Republican race. The Texas governor dropped his presidential campaign and opted to support Newt Gingrich so...the race is down to Mitt Romney, a Massachusetts "conservative" (as if anyone from that state can be conservative) none of GOP bigwigs seem to like, and Newt Gingrich, an adulterer. Looks like things are really looking up for this country. Oh wait, no they aren't.

Besides, it's too early for me to be hearing about campaigning crap anyway. 2012 has barely begun, let's start the race around then. And limit the amount candidates can spend so that our TVs aren't plugged up with negative ads all the time.
