Gov. Mitch Daniels says he will wait to announce decision

The State Column | Friday, April 29, 2011

Indiana governor Mitch Daniels said Thursday that supporters will have to wait through the weekend for his decision regarding the 2012 Republican presidential campaign.

The Indiana Republican says he will wait until next month to announce his decision.

Mr. Daniels told The Indianapolis Star that “it absolutely won’t be (announced this weekend) because you can’t announce a decision you haven’t made.”

The Indiana governor said he remains focused on the current legislative session, where he may face a decision concerning a controversial abortion measure that is making its way through the legislature.

Mr. Daniels acknowledged concerns over the timeline, noting that he “feels some responsibility not to just keep [supporters] dangling.”

The comment from Mr. Daniels comes as a number of potential Republican presidential candidates have already announced plans for presidential exploratory committees.
