Received this article in a round-about way (via Facebook) and have not been able to locate it on the Internet. There are some other blogs noting that Shafer is hinting, that there are rumblings, but this is the first news article we've found. We've included a link to the Facebook page with the full article posted:

Trying to draw on the good omens of other candidates who have campaigned at Alvin Worley’s Outback and won — including Gov. Sonny Perdue — Republican state Sen. David Shafer, R-Duluth, a candidate for lieutenant governor, held his first official campaign event Thursday at the rustic meeting venue.
