We're only a year away from the first caucuses/primaries (Iowa, New Hampshire) leading up to the 2012 U.S. presidential election.

Of the following rumored candidates, who forms an exploratory committee by July 4, 2011?

Clarification: if a listed candidate starts up a committee before 7/4 but somehow quits/disbands it before then, you'll still get credit.

Finally settled this. To my knowledge, Sarah Palin has not set up a presidential exploratory committee yet.
