Rick Santorum (google it), has said he has formed a presidential exploratory committee. The man-on-dog former Senator made the announcement on FOX News "On the Record", the NYT reports:
Mr. Santorum, who for months has been
introducing himself to voters in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina,
filed papers with the Internal Revenue Service that permit him to
solicit contributors. He is the fourth potential Republican candidate to
start raising money for a presidential bid.
“The test for me is whether we can raise
the money that’s necessary, so I’m going to set up a committee,” Mr.
Santorum said. “We’re going to determine over the next few weeks as to
whether the resources are going to be there to do it.”
Mr. Santorum has been aggressively
reaching out to social conservatives in early voting states. He received
an initial showing of support by winning a straw poll last week at a
Republican convention in Greenville County, the largest county in South
Carolina.
