Tim Pawlenty heads to Iowa.

[saltpoint]

Further fueling expectation that he is interested in a White House run in 2012, Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty visits Iowa, site of the nation's first presidential caucus:

But I'm sure Gov. Pawlenty is just down in Iowa on a run for sweet corn.

Politics? Perish the thought.

1. They certainly have a sterling list of potentials, don't they.

Palin, Pawlenty, Thune, Barber, hell, can Tancredo jump in, too?

:D


'Morning, saltpoint!

:hi:

2. you missed the Grinch who stole christmas

Newt is taking aim on his own place in history.

[saltpoint]

3. Hey babylonsister. And good morning to you too.

Yep. The GOP 2008 field was monstrous, but they're going to do even worse this time!

A pack of yahoos and ne'er-do-wells.

:hi:

4. We Minnesotans say STAY STAY STAY

Phewlenty smells of the GOP way more than any of the bunch of republicans stampeding toward running for president.

Gee what a bunch of crooks and idiots.

[saltpoint]

6. No kidding. I am hoping the whole pack of

Puke hopefuls winds up slicing each other to shreds on the sidewalk.

I wouldn't miss any one of them.

5. I don't think the people in Iowa want a Pawlenty burger

He has been down there several times and has come up almost empty on the campaign donations.

[saltpoint]

7. LOL!

Excellent!

8. Let the Rethug cage match begin!

Many go in, one comes out...bloody, battered & weakened. I love it!

Hiya Saltpoint! :hi:

12. Hey there, JNelson. A howdy-do right back, and

yep -- here's to the GOP 2012 primary race.

May it be a battering and extended affair!

:hi:

10. Mmmm....corn.

14. I think it's fucking hilarious that he thinks he has a chance. Unless, of course, he's already

running for veep. Because who the hell wants to vote for a guy who let this happen?

[saltpoint]

15. I'm still having trouble seeing him as presidential

material, definitely.

Maybe he sees it differently, but he just doesn't resonate as a person of vision.

16. Never sweat this one. Not hot enough to be President in the 21st century --

Plus that name sounds mad awkward, and can remind one only of some weird Italian-style grits or something.

17. One blogger last year appropriated, "I got Pawlenty of

nothin' and nothin's got Pawlenty of me."
