He's a featherweight who won't make it through the caucuses much less the primaries.

Dear PP,
You can print this same article with different headings, but the message is the same. Pawlenty has about as much chance being our next President as Jessie Ventura does!

Pawlenty is starting to realize that whomever the GOP nominee is in 2012 will probably win, as 70% of the independents have already bailed on Obama.

And given the rest of the republican field, he has as much chance as anyone.

Even though I disagree with much of Pawlenty's politics, especially what he's done to education in MN, I hope that the GOP has enough common sense to take someone like Pawlenty more seriously than someone like Palin.
He's right. If the GOP wants to win, they better find a way to attract voters instead of shoving them out of the tent. Of course, just the week before Pawlenty said that in Iowa he shoved the GOP endorsed candidate out of the tent in NY.

It is politicians like this do nothing but flap his lips that leads to a dead end position for this State as well as this country. He hasn't made one significant advancement for this State and the only worthwhiled one would be to resign so he can try to improve upon his abysmal national ratings.

I thought the Guv. was out deer hunting in Thief River Falls Saturday or was that like everything else for Paw-lenty, All show!!!! He may talk Health Care reform, He has so little to show for that in Minnesota, The poor got smacked on that. He can't really talk of education reform unless it is cut spending to the poorer districts and pour it on to the richer districts. His tax cut for the suburban fatcats is all he cares about , "Let's not raise taxes, lets raise fees."

I wouldn't vote for him for dog catcher!?

The real news is that Pawlenty could only scare up 500 Republicans. He would be torn to pieces by President Obama. Tim Pawlenty would make a terrible President.
