I see no evidence that Pawlenty has anything to do with Steve Schmidt. Pawlenty has picked some McCain advisers, yes, but they include Randy Scheunemann, who I read is a vigorous Palin defender.

I can find no story that ties Schmidt to Pawlenty (or anybody else).

I was not aware that Scheunemann had officially joined Pawlenty. I know he participated in a DC fundraiser for Pawlenty. According to Politico (I think), Scheunemann called it a "get acquainted" event.

Has there been an announcement of Scheunemann officially joining Pawlenty?

Thanks for checking. I amy be mistaken. I hope so, actually.
