T-Paw says he is not interested in being V-Paw

Yeah the article is from yesterday and it's a stupid topic, like Pawlenty would bring ANYTHING to the ticket.

But I am linking to it because the comments are hilarious. T-Paw is getting slammed up and down. LOL

. . . that Pawlenty would be the Republican's candidate for President this year.
I don't know why O'Donnell thought that the Republican/Tea Party coalition would recover their senses in time to nominate someone more genuine than Romney, but man, was he ever off the mark.
I really like O'Donnell, but I knew he was wrong when he said it.

I think he'd make a better president than Romney or any of the Repubs that fell by the wayside.

And that's not a compliment to Pawlenty.

My guess is a run at Franken's seat in '14 (unless Romney actually does ask him to run as VP, which seems so unlikely to me - it would be the "Insincere and More Insincere in '12" ticket).
