I hadn't really paid any attention to Tim Pawlenty (Jesse Ventura's
successor :0), but perhaps I should..
Checking in on Tim and Mitt
Despite the thin rhetorical gruel, Pawlenty boasts a promising profile
for a potential nominee--a governor from the key swing region of the
country, young and attractive and without a lot of the social issue
baggage. He's raising eyebrows. Newt Gingrich recently called him a
"terrific talent...a very attractive guy [with] a good reform record."
Gingrich further told The Politico that Pawlenty will be a "player" in
2012 and that there "is every reason he should run, there is wide open
field right now." Politico's Jonathan Martin earlier reported that, in
addition to jetting around the country to raise dough, Pawlenty has
assembled a top-notch support team boasting a variety of people with
presidential-level experience, including advisers Terry Nelson, Sara
Taylor, Phil Musser, Freedom First co-chairmen William Strong and
former Rep. Vin Weber, and a corps of tech consultants.
