Santorum: Prez Bid Launch in June

Washington Post reports:

Former senator Rick Santorum will officially enter the GOP presidential primary on June 6, according to two sources close to the former senator.

The sources said the announcement will take place in Pennsylvania, where Santorum was a two-term senator, in the city of Johnstown, near where his father moved from Italy to work in the coal mines.

It had previously been reported that Santorum would announce sometime during that week. Santorum has long been expected to run and opened an exploratory committee earlier this month so that he could participate in a debate in South Carolina.
