Tim Pawlenty and been to Iraq and as a vet of IOF I believe in him and MCcain

They don't believe in you. VFW and IAVA rate McCain a D or worse for his vets voting record. He opposed the GI bill because he said the incentives were too good and people would leave the military. Given everything you have done to serve our country, you deserve someone who will do better by you than that.
Ever since Gore ... ( 2 months ago by SW34R3NG3N)
Ever since Gore tried to steal the election in 2000 and failed the libs run around saying Bush stole the election. Then they said it should be one man, one vote because Gore won the popular vote. But when Bush won the popular vote by 3 million in 04 they're suddenly back on board with the electoral college and suggesting that Bush managed to steal 140,000 votes in Ohio. Anyway, Pawlenty looks good and speaks clearly and concisely. I prefer Romney but would support Tim.
What's that you say ... ( 2 months ago by HughMongoose)
What's that you say? HOW could Pawlenty be considered a good governor? I ask as a fellow Minnesotan who has seen nothing positive come out of his governorship. Isn't it great how he saved some greedy folks their tax dollars by cutting back on things like infrastructure inspections? I can't imagine a better metaphor for his governorship than the 35W collapse and Molnau's subsequent removal from her position of transportation chief.

SERIOUSLY. Cute? Please, do the general population a favor and don't reproduce. I'm not sure we can handle more people with scintillating intellect like yours.
It's Marshall, not ... ( 2 months ago by spynverzyon)
It's Marshall, not Pawlenty, who strikes that improbable combination of vapid, self-satisfied, and awkward in this vid. In the clips intended to expose Pawlenty's woodenness, it's at least clear that Pawlenty knows his stuff and can back up what he says. Marshall, by contrast, never really explains how the video evidence he offers supports his smug dismissal of Pawlenty, and the effect is that this little piece falls dead flat.

Pawlenty is one of ... ( 2 months ago by gloomyrival)
Pawlenty is one of the worst governors we have ever had in Minnesota. When Jesse Ventura left office we were in a surplus and now we are so far in the hole that we can't see daylight, but the Twins are getting a new stadium on our dime, but our bridges aren't safe. Pawlenty is a liar, crook, and cold and calculating businessman...in other words, perfect for John Mccain.
"Pawlenty is one of ... ( 2 months ago by usamericanz)
"Pawlenty is one of the worst governors we have ever had in Minnesota." Apparently your fellow Minnesotans don't think so. Pawlenty's approval ratings the last few years have been between 55-60%, which ain't bad for a Republican governor of a blue state.
BORING! Then again ... ( 2 months ago by RachellClark)
BORING! Then again, anyone but Romney! I personally hope he picks Palin.
Thank you for this ... ( 2 months ago by patrickmcintyre)
Thank you for this video - I learned a lot about Pawlenty. He didn't make any mistakes -seems to have a healthy self-deprecating sense of humor - seems to be humble and most importantly, knows his place. I didn't feel like sticking my finger down my throat even once.
That is true, I ... ( 2 months ago by noobreloaded)
That is true, I have done my research on him recently and he is well received.
During his first ... ( 2 months ago by zagerman)
During his first year as governor, Pawlenty balanced a deficit of $4.3 billion without raising taxes, primarily by reducing the rate of funding increases for state services, including funding for transportation, social services, and welfare. Umm... ok. Oh... and: "State finance officials say Minnesota will have a budget surplus that should top $2 billion over the next two-year budget cycle."

The "white noise" is not Pawlenty, it's the host of this blog who needs a shave and shower.
"Wow, here's a new idea: kiss Obama's butt online!"
It's been done, dumb bell!

John McCain went to ... ( 2 months ago by JcLaurentNYCD)
John McCain went to an unknown state and pick an unknown Governor with no experience of whatsoever as his VP when he could have chosen Mitt Romney who is well known and well qualifiied. If that doesn't tell you something about John McCain; I don't know what will. John McCain is really the one who puts politics before his country and who will do anything to get elected. Chosing Sarah Palin as his VP and assuming Hillary's Female Voters will join his party and vote for him - - just proved it.

Josh I'm not a conservative, but I think what you call bland is actually polish. He's very good on the talk show circuit: focused, knowledgeable, and well prepared. He's also good @ making a speech. I was hoping McCain did not pick Pawlenty. I think he was by far the best choice. Sarah Palin is charming
a better leader than McCain, but people will find that she's not to be trusted. You can take a girl out of Alaska, but you can't take Alaska out of the girl. Alaskan pols govern like the mafia.

That's awesome! Palin, the mafia Ice Queen of Alaska for President.
