The Washington Times ran an article this morning where they hinted at a Presidential Run for current Governor Bob Riley.
Mr. Riley plans another solo motorcycle ride across America and Canada all the way to Alaska next year. When asked whether he will contemplate a presidential campaign on that trip, Mr. Riley downplayed the idea. Nevertheless, when pushed, he added that he has "never ruled out anything in my life."
The question now: Will the Republican establishment take notice?
I said in 2006 that if we had a republican Lt.Gov (i.e. Luther Strange) that Gov. Riley would be a very viable VP candidate. Now, with no real front runner coming to the state in 2012 I think his name will come up on the national circuit. There is alot of time between now and then so we will have to wait and see what happens.
