NYC Mayor….Anthony Weiner is still having issues with photography and technology. His campaign website was erected with a photo of the Pittsburgh skyline instead of a photo of the New York skyline. The misplaced photograph failed to excite New Yorkers and caused a limp reaction.

David Carney, who was Perry’s top adviser during his 2012 presidential bid, tells me that “there’s no question” that Perry is seriously weighing the prospect of a 2016 run; it’s not just talk.
