CNN

The politcal thugs and liars he has chosen for his team tell me what to think of him. You are the staff you hire.

and are you going to serve Freedom Fries? jjajaaajaaa

Gov P, I got my $50.00, will get a job and great medical care? NOT! Pres Obama is my vote in 2012!

It wouldn't surprise me that he would run. He is not the best candidate that the Republicans have, but he is certainly better than Palin. Granted that isn't hard. What can he show for the time he served as governor?

I wish Pawlenty would remember that he is a sitting governor and that Minnesota is faced with a potentially crippling deficit over the next several years. Oh yes, he's already blown that off as "manageable" and even excoriated a former Republican governor for raising concerns.

Such an empty suit. Most people would not order off the dollar menu at McDonald's for his fundraiser.

Tim please investigate the voter fraud in your state. Al Franken and ACORN should not be allowed to fix this election.

After 2000, Democrat swore that they would never again lose a close election. Now, when it is close and a republican edges out a victory, the libs create fake votes out of thin air and claim victory. For the sake of Democrasy, we need to stop the libs from stealing our elections.

T-Paw has no backbone and doesn't even look presidential. He needs to stop wasting his time and work for the people of Minnesota.

Send in a check. We need to get the liberals out of D.C.

Pretzels & Pints...........a little something for the Po Folk.......sure GOP candidates take the cash by any means.......isn't there a recession going on in GOP country?

All I can say is lookout America. Pawlenty is a highly ineffective political weasel. Lots of double talk and no action. Lookout America.

Anything is better than what we have right now.

This has to be one of the goofiest men I have ever seen!

can this guy just go away already

For all us Minnesotans.....please, please please let Phewlenty stay in DC, and the 49 states...as long as he doesn't come back to Minnesota. Hip Hip Hooray......

I would'nt pay 50cents to see this low-brow. He was a leading voice in objecting to having our President give an inspiring talk to our school children, and is amongst those that have the temerity to say that the President SHOULD address SCHOOL CHILDREN in Chicago vis-a-vis violence in their schools. Make up your peanut little mind creep.

The man has more shady characters on his staff than any one of you can imagine.

He's is NOT president material.

A.B.B= Anybody But Barack is going to be the theme in 2012. This is what happens when we get fooled into electing a state senator who never ran anything in his life. I take Pawlenty over Obozo any day, at least the guy can run a state.

another confederate traitor...

...they're all alike, all our enemies...

pawlenty is no different than beck et al...

...deliver us from right wing traitors...

Is he raising money to fix that bridge that went down because of neglect under his watch on MN or is he collecting money to pay for that long recount in which he clearly made MN the laughing stock of America? Which one is it T Paw?

What is he raising money for? He will never be president. So why is this news?

Tim Pawlenty will make a great veep for Mitt Romney who is clearly the most qualified and pragmatic leader in America today. No one can dispute the great accomplishments of pragmatic Romney in public, private, and non-profits sectors of our economy. And after all it's the "economy" isn't it? Let's "hire" the best person in 2012 to manage the economy. That's Mitt...........!!!!!

What a joke he will be. OMG republicans please do better than him.
Check out who his high staff members are. All disgusting people.

the only thing good about this is that being from MN if by some freak accident he wins then maybe MN will get all the specail treatments like chicagpo has getting

If this dimwitted by-the-book conservative is the best the Republicans can do we can look forward to another term for Obama! Keep up the good work Tim! It's the best thing for America!

As long as they keep rolling out these out-of-touch stereotypical white male politicians America is set!

God forbid they actually tried moving to the center.

Who is running the state? Or will Pawlenty do a "Palin" and resign before the term is up to pursue a "higher calling?"

Or is he just leaving before any more bridges collapse ... gotta cut those taxes ya know .... why worry about the infrastructure!!!

super flake

don't do it GOP, you have suffered already with the Palin, Sanford, Wilson, etc., etc.

head this train off now, this guy is NOT your canidate

as a liberal I say this because I have endured what happened when you did not listen and Palin was chosen as your running mate

she will not go away, and now her dad is the latest in the line up of Palins to bestow his wisdom on us

Please, move to the next canidate

republicans say they are pro life yet support the death penalty, war and are avid hunters.
republicans want gun rights for all but not health care for all.
republicans say they want small gov yet want to tell you what to do with your body and whom you can and cannot marry.
repubicans say they are fiscally conservative yet broke this country with an illegal war and will bail out a bank in a minute.

This man is a joke!

He should resign or stay HOME and do the job we are paying you for instead of flying around the country on the tax payers dime

Give him your money!!!!Lots of luck.

Sorry Tim its all in vein. You dont stand a chance. Obama is for the People and you are for the Corporations. Corp's dont have a vote, so they use scare tactics. We know you are going to lie.... a lot. Repubs dont love America only money. OBAMA-BIDEN 2012

Poor Pawlenty. He was on the top of McCain's VP list until McCain sold his soul and went for Sugarskirt.

If Clinton would have won the Dem nomination, Pawlenty would have been chosen.

Either way, Obama would have crushed them. As he will in '12.
