NY GOP says Rep. King should make White House run in 2012

GARDEN CITY, N.Y. — Rep. Peter King’s national profile has soared as head of the House Homeland Security panel. But he’s taking a wait-and-see approach to a suggestion by a powerful hometown Republican that he run for president.

King told The Associated Press on Wednesday: “Let’s see what happens.”

For the moment, he insists that he’s focused on another run for Congress in 2012.

The chairman of the Nassau County Republican Committee reportedly drew widespread applause from 1,100 fellow Republicans at a dinner Tuesday night when he suggested King run as a favorite son candidate.

In a press release from the county GOP, Joseph Mondello says King could garner widespread support.

He said King doesn’t speak from a pollster’s cue card and understands the debt and the ongoing war on terror.

Fine by me, he won't draw any votes from Ron, that's for sure.
