Former U.S. Attorney Matt Whitaker (R) “is taking steps to run for the U.S. Senate, saying he would vote only for legislation that’s constitutional and would pattern himself after tea party favorite U.S. Sen. Rand Paul,” the Des Moines Register reports.
“Republicans have been struggling to find someone willing to take on
the challenge of running to replace U.S. Sen. Tom Harkin, a veteran
Democrat who is retiring in 2014.”
