Life is good.
So said Gov. Rick Perry this morning at the outset of his interview with Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski on MSNBCs Morning Joe, otherwise known as the show people watch in clips posted to the Internet. Perry wouldnt talk about his indictment, nor would he say whether hes running for president: Ill make a decision next year, he said. So no holding your breath until Christmas.

I think America needs a competent leader, he said. Well sort out who thats going to be

Maybe the highlight comes early in the chat, when Perry dissects his previous presidential run and the moment the wheels shot off. Said Perry, he just didnt prepare last time, simple as that. He wasnt prepared for all three phases: domestic policy, monetary policy, foreign policy. The reason, said the governor: I was a bit arrogrant. Id been elected governor three times. And that should have been good enough. But
it was not.
