Santorum To Run In 2012?

Politico.com reports that former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum has formed a Political Action Committee in Iowa to help candidates running in that state.

Though Santorum has not officially thrown in his hat for a 2012 presidential run, many are taking notice at the formation of this committee because it is often an early sign.  The creation of a PAC in Iowa gets people in the caucus state interested in the candidates and there are no limits on monetary contributions.

Santorum has made several visits to Iowa in the past year and will return next week for more events.
