Perry Will Likely Announce in Late August
Texas Gov. Rick Perry is all but certain to launch a presidential campaign and is nearing an announcement set for the second half of August, Real Clear Politics reports.
Potential donors to Perry’s presidential effort met Tuesday in Austin and were told he will announce a campaign between Aug. 15 and Aug. 31. Perry himself said on Friday that he’ll at least make his intentions known within the next three to four weeks.
Palin Documentary Bombs
“With its Sarah Palin documentary The Undefeated increasing its playdates by 40% this weekend, only to watch box office revenue decline by more than 63 percent, distributor Arc Entertainment announced Sunday that the film will soon be available on pay per view,” Reuters reports.
“The movie played in 14 Tea Party-friendly locations this weekend — up from the 10 in which it opened last week — but grossed just $24,000.”
