I just watched the reply of the interview, I thought Pawlenty did well. I like what I’m seeing and hearing from him, serious proposals to deal with the economy, taxes, spending, entitlements, etc. For right now he is my top choice, but I want to hear more from him and several other candidates over the coming months.
I am getting tired of hearing that Mittens in the front-runner and basically the heir apparent and the "next guy in line" with the old Republican guard. This has to stop. We have had slick, soaring rhetoric, phony Roman pillars, and promises of the receding seas. Let's get real and get people back to work, get them contributing to society and their own retirement plans, and paying taxes. I want more common sense, more concrete plans, less "progressive" crap, and less razz-ma-tazz. If Pawlenty is boring or "plain vanilla", I'll take a double-dose. BUT, let's keep looking and evaluating the candidates.
