Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli today spoke candidly about already preparing for a reelection bid in 2013, saying that he knows his office’s challenge to the Obama administration is attracting national attention.

In an interview on MSNBC’s Daily Rundown this morning, Cuccinelli (R) said the lawsuits against environmental regulations and health care reform and a ruling that police can check immigration status means he’s getting on the radar.

“I’m not a fool, I’m becoming a target, and I know I’m going to get a bigger target,” he said.

Cuccinelli also said he is raising money for his political action committee off his higher profile because there is a “presumption I’m running for reelection.”
