KEYWORD

Schock Potential GOP Gubernatorial Candidate



Add another name to the mix of potential GOP candidates for governor in 2014.  Congressman Aaron Schock has hinted he may be interested in the job.  His name has appeared on several recent polls asking delegates and voters who'd be best for the job. 

Schock didn't top either list but he did manage to garner some support.  He won't say directly if he plans to run but says party leaders should rally behind the strongest candidate and fund that campaign.
