He's a lightweight, who has accomplished nothing in this state. Unless you want to call starving our infrastructure to the point where bridges collapse and people die an accomplishment. He'll be a perfect VP candidate for McSame.

So if he by some act of god becomes our VP, who does that leave us with for governor? Oh yeah, she had something to do with that bridge incident too.

Pawlenty is missing almost as much work as his senile buddy, McClone. Neither one of them has put in the hours they're supposed to. McClone has missed more votes than any other senator... talk about not doing your job!

Oh! It's one of my Favorite Dreams!

I can just see the DFL running for the hills, after the way they dragged her through the mud!

Hey, Minnesota: apparently double standards are permissible if you're MN's Governor. State employees have been under a travel ban all year, regardless of the reason, or who's paying the travel bill. Nice, Timmy-

As long as he's not using the taxpayer's money, it shouldn't matter where he goes.

So whose money do you think he's using? No matter how you look at it, it's the taxpayers, whether they be Minn taxpayers or the rest of the nation. Travel ain't cheap, Timmie.

"He is clearly running for national office, and the proof is in his travel miles," Jacobs said. What's all the fuss about. The guys a politician. At least he doesn't censor comments the way this website does. Tim believes in freedom of speech but apparently twincities.com doesn't believe in the 1st Amendment. Anyone else getting censored for reasonable comments that might not be politically correct? Post.

Typical liberal, no-conscience response blaming Pawlenty and Molnau for the bridge. I literally despise ANY politician and hack like this who uses the death of people from an ACCIDENT for politicial purposes.

As to Molnau, want to see Steve Murphy pee his pants? Mention the possibility of GOVERNOR MOLNAU. Payback's a b*tch and I can't wait to see this happen.

Who is paying for his security and their overtime? I'm guessing we are.

If she would become governor she can't really do anything without the legislature. She would HAVE to work with them and perhaps she would learn how to effectively do a job!

Let's pay for a governor who actually governs - not runs for higher office.
Let's stop paying him for every day he's not in the state.
