Karger about to shift from "exploratory committee" to "'official' campaign"

[Mr. Morden]

Of course, the burning question is whether this will be enough to get people on this board to stop spelling it "Krager":

[Mr. Morden]

He's now filed the paperwork to make it official:

So yes, a 2012 presidential candidate has left the "exploratory" phase.

Of course, I don't expect that he'll be allowed in the debates or included in any polling questions, so don't get too excited.
