Last week, following Michele Bachmann’s win at the Iowa straw poll and Gov. Rick Perry’s official presidential announcement, the pair were compared to biblical figures: King Saul, the people’s choice, and King David, God’s choice.

Peter Waldron, who does outreach for Bachmann’s campaign, said on his Facebook page: “From afar and in prayer I see a Saul and David scenario between Perry and Bachmann. One looks everything like a king while the other is anointed.”

The CBO's mid-year assessment reduces projected 2011 economic growth rate from 3.1 percent to 2.3 percent, and estimates the jobless rate will remain above 8% until 2014.

President Obama is on vacation, but when he returns he will surely tell us for the umpteenth time that he is going to focus like a laser on jobs.

As Rachel Maddow put it last night, the only thing Perry really adds to the Bachman package is that he isn't a woman. And Republicans appear to be grabbing for that like gangbusters.
