“„David Keating, executive director of the Club for Growth, said the group is eager to examine the details of Rubio’s report, including how much he’s spending, but, “We’re certainly going to a closer look at getting involved in this race…If he can sustain that rate, I think he’d have enough money to get his message out and have a good shot at winning,” said Keating, noting that a Club for Growth endorsement can bring more than $1 million to a campaign.
