“It makes absolutely no sense.”
Yeah it actually does make sense.
The people who are most pissed are the party activists who like to be schmoozed by the candidates. Pawlenty didn’t do that.
Yes, he said bad things about Trump. I don’t agree with that.
What Pawlenty had was name recognition (not all of it bad) and money. He did have volunteers too. I saw them out during the primary.
Walz will do better than expected - especially in southern Minnesota. He represents a good chunk of that area in Congress. Southern Minnesota is an area where Walz could easily undercut Johnson.
My choice, whether people like it or not, was based on practicalities. I decided that Pawlenty, for all of his issues, gave the GOP at least a chance at winning the Governors office. Based on his past performances, I remain unconvinced he can.
Having said that, I’d very much like to proven wrong in November.
I have been out of the state for seven years. What I know about Tim Walz was he isn’t a Twin Cities lunatic barking moonbat. Or has that changed?
