Tancredo sets up Exploratory Committee

Tom Tancredo yesterday set up an exploratory committee to consider running for the GOP nomination for President.

Tancredo had spent the weekend in Iowa meeting with key Republicans, and while there yesterday, made his announcement. Tancredo also announced that he has employed prominent Iowan Republican Bill Salier to work on his campaign.

As an strong advocate for curbs of immigration, expect Tancredo to use this as his platform to attempt to secure GOP support in Iowa.

A formal announcement saying that Tancredo is running for President may only be weeks away.
