Everything's Bigger In Texas, Even Sarah Palin

So, 6 days after her announcement of resignation in Alaska, Sarah Palin is on the campaign trail -- in Texas, again. Palin is back on the stump for incumbent Governor Rick Perry in his re-election campaign, facing what some think will be a tough primary fight against the more moderate U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX). Perry is gearing his campaign toward an anti-Washington candidacy, right down Palin's alley. This is not Palin's first trip for Perry, as I reported here, she began campaigning from Perry back in March, coinciding with the launch of SarahPAC. (And the next day the FEC listed Sarah Palin as a 2012 presidential candidate, then quickly denied it, although the listing still exists...)

So, Palin is testing her political capital in Texas, a good place to do it. We'll see. She didn't waste any time getting back on the campaign trail, that's for sure.
