From The State:
In a sure sign Andre Bauer is running for governor, the two-term, Republican lieutenant governor Thursday opened a campaign bank account and filed paperwork with the State Ethics Commission.
“He’s one of the most underestimated politicians in South Carolina, and he’s one of the most likable,” said former S.C. GOP chairman Katon Dawson, who has not endorsed a candidate. “This is a guy who’s always fought the odds. He’s a scrapper.
“I’d hate to run against him.”
Campaign consultant, Chris LaCivita said Bauer, who recently moved his legal residence to Greenville, will make a formal announcement soon.
