I don't think so, myself. He's too associated with the religious right, which arouses suspicion in the East Coast Republicans, and he's also got vulnerabilities on the illegal immigration issue: the Republicans are trying to woo Hispanics, but Perry has once more called out the National Guard to march on the border.
If Perry is on the ticket, the better for reasonable Americans: just like Palin, he will push centrists like me to another candidate.
