Former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty has jumped into the 2012 Campaign, officially announcing that's he's running at an event today in Des Moines. Having lived in Minnesota for some of his tenure, I can honestly say that I'm fairly indifferent about him- and he scored big points in my personal playbook for having the balls to stand up- in Iowa no less and say that ethanol subsidies should be phased out.
Impressively ballsy. Hopefully it doesn't kill him in Iowa...
I'd have to learn a little more about his specific policy positions to be sure, but tentatively, I'd say I could tolerate a potential President Pawlenty. And potentially tolerating Republicans is a big step for me.
