Perry has said, repeatedly, on the record, that he's not running for president in 2012.  Just thought I'd mention this.

Perry is also going to be attending the Reagan 100th birthday celebration in Chicago next month, along with potential 2012ers John Bolton, Newt Gingrich, Mike Pence, and Rick Santorum:

UPDATE: Perry advisor Dave Carney denies that they're doing polling outside of Texas:

He's already denied interest in 2012 though, hasn't he?

Yes, as I said in my post.  But of course there have been numerous cases in which a potential candidate denied interest publicly, yet privately put out feelers to gauge interest in a campaign.
