Minnesota’s two potential presidential contenders continue with plans to travel the nation. At CPAC, Rep. Michele Bachmann said she’s planning a trip to New Hampshire, while former Gov. Tim Pawlenty announced an upcoming trip to Florida. Both have been touring the country — Pawlenty hawking his new book and Bachmann assisting Republican candidates and party units with fundraising.
According to the Union Leader, Bachmann said on Friday she was planning a trip to New Hampshire.
“The Minnesota congresswoman made the announcement to reporters this afternoon at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington, D.C.,” wrote John Distaso. “According to a source who is attending the conference and witnessed the exchange, Bachmann gave no time frame for the visit to the first-in-the-nation primary state.”
Pawlenty is headed to Florida on Wednesday to speak to state legislators on the invitation of state Senate President Mike Haridopolos. Haridopolos is running for U.S. Senate in 2012 and is bringing in a number of presidential candidates because “if a person is seeking the presidency, I think they should come to Florida and let us know what they think.”

Let Romney win it and crush him everywhere else works for me.
