It looks like the Fox 2012 primary is already beginning to heat up.

The Hill.com is reporting that Fox contributor Rick Santorum has concerns about facing Fox contributor Sarah Palin in the 2012 Republican primary. Santorum reportedly told an audience in early primary state South Carolina, “If [Palin] decides to get into the race, she will take a lot of air out of the room, that's for sure.”

He also said that “She is such a media star, I would think it's hard for her to have normal interactions” with voters and admitted that his major problem at this point is “getting the crowd.”
