Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty (R) has enlisted a number of GOP strategists from John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign, another sign that he’s planning a run for president in 2012.
Pawlenty has snagged a stable of well-known Republicans to help host his first fundraiser for the Freedom First PAC, his new political action committee, according to an invitation to the kickoff event in Washington obtained by The Hill.

“Lots of folks want to learn more about how Gov. Pawlenty successfully governed as a conservative in a traditionally liberal-leaning state,” said Alex Conant, Pawlenty’s spokesman. “His innovative, conservative leadership is drawing a broad spectrum of people eager to help.”
Among those interested in getting to know Pawlenty are Douglas Holtz-Eakin and Randy Scheunemann, two top policy advisers from the McCain presidential campaign who have joined the Minnesota governor’s host committee.

He’s a wuss.
mcstupid and his fellow rinos are really afraid of a real female conservative.
Poor Timmy.
I’ll be leery of anyone that McCain backs.

OOOH! ME! CALL ON ME! I KNOW THIS ONE!!!
‘cause he’s another fricking RINO, just like John McCain.
Sorry, anyone who takes on the McCain persona, the McCain advisors, and the McCain squishy middle platform, is a capital L Loser in my book.
Not interested.
Kiss of death.

Yeah, they’ll give him good advice like “don’t say anything bad about your opponent”.
Can any real conservative come from Minnesota?
You got it, Norm.
Can any real conservative come from Minnesota?
I live in Minnesota, but my real home is the Texas Hill Country. So don’t call me a Minnesotan.
Exactamundo!
Buh-bye, Pawlenty.
None for me, thanks.
>>>Can any real conservative come from Minnesota?
Possibly. Chances that one will be in the running for President any time soon: none to slim.
What a fool.
Congresswoman Michele Bachmann
What the heck is THAT?
(Do I really want to know?)
Any Republican who dares to work with this scumbag deserves to have their careers wrecked and be blacklisted.
With McCain for a friend , he doesnt need any enemies.
Whatever his qualities or lack thereof, I will invoke the “bad names lose” rule to suggest that Mr. Pawlenty doesn’t stand a chance. “Pawlenty?” The SNL and Jon Stewart skits just write themselves.
