Governor Perry and Harry Potter making headlines this weekend.

No, Texas Governor Rick Perry hasn't said whether he's running for President yet...but that hasn't stopped media from around the country from trying to find out everything they can about him.  And we here at Watching and Waiting certainly like letting you know what they're working on.

One Stop Perry Shopping

KUT's political reporting partner, The Texas Tribune, has compiled acurated home for data and information on Perry's political career, policy positions, campaign finances and personal history. The Tribune is calling it Perrypedia (and who are we to disagree). The Tribune hopes the site will help answer any questions people have on the possible presidential candidate, whether he runs or not.

"We'll continue to expand our Perrypedia features in the coming days and weeks. And if he doesn't run for president? Well, we'll have a very helpful compendium of information on the longest-serving governor of Texas, whatever he might do in the future."
