Some gamblers have placed a bet that the Committee handpicked Rick Perry to win the 2012 election.

The folks at Salon, who are savvy about the way voters turn when times get bad, have waffled between picking Bachmann or Perry for U.S. President in 2012.

It’s all a matter of which likely voters are convinced to go to the polls.

We’ll keep you informed of how we’re convincing* “the people” to select the political candidate who will lead the U.S. to greatness again.

Anyone want to wager on a Perry/Bachmann ticket?

*HINT: It starts with manipulating the economy and then causing riots in the right demographic neighbourhoods, but of course you already knew that.  It’s time for me to stock up on canned goods before it gets real ugly out there in the marketplace of ideas.
