GOP 'Dark Horse' Mike Pence Wooing Conservatives

He’s been called the 2016 GOP “dark horse” presidential candidate, but Indiana Gov. Mike Pence is receiving too much buzz to keep that title much longer.

Key Republican leaders and pollsters quizzed by the Examiner are cooing over Pence’s chance to be the GOP standard bearer. They cheer about his efforts to turn Indiana into a Midwest economic engine, his Reaganesque positive outlook and his leadership as the House Republican Conference chairman in 2010, the year the party took back control of the chamber.

Plus, some say that he will be able to raise millions of dollars because of his deep ties to both social and business conservatives and also because one of his former top aides runs a free-market group funded by the billionaire Koch brothers.

And according to reports from Indianapolis, Pence is moving to shore up support from conservatives and Tea Party members in his new state budget that focuses heavily on school choice, expanding charter schools and even letting students attend private schools with taxpayer support.
