Rick Perry Tweet: "Here We Come South Carolina!!!"

Texas Governor Rick Perry tweeted, "And the next leg of the marathon is the Palmetto State...Here we come South Carolina!!!" He also posted of a picture of himself in a jogging outfit.

It looks like Perry is staying in the race.

Bachmann and Perry Out?

After yesterday's less than stellar showing by Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry at the Iowa Caucuses, each are facing tough decisions today.

Perry will be returning to Texas to evaluate his campaign and whether or not he will continue. Bachmann has canceled her trip to South Carolina and is planning a news conference this morning. The thought is that Bachmann would announce that she is dropping out of the GOP race.

Each, at one time, were at the top of the list as the Republican candidate that would run against President Obama in this year's election.

Romney's $10,000 Bet

During the Republican debate in Des Moines, Iowa, last night, Mitt Romney challenged Rick Perry on his assertions regarding Romney's health care record.

"I'm just saying, you're for individual mandates, my friend," Perry said to Romney.

"You've raised that before, Rick, and you're simply wrong," Romney responded, extending his hand toward Perry. "Rick, I'll tell you what: 10,000 bucks?"

Perry laughed it off: "I'm not in the betting business."

Romney is now drawing more fire for his privileged life and personal wealth. The Democratic National Committee has already created an ad stating that $10,000 is almost three times more than what an average family spends on groceries in a year and more than a year's worth of mortgage payments for the typical American home purchased today.
