I suppose Pawlenty thinks he is funny. It is time for him to take his smug and dishonest face off of my TV--hopefully never to be seen again. The sooner he goes into retirement, the better off we will all be.

Pawlenty carrying water for the merry band of GOP miscreants. Gotta love the irony there.

If a Pawlenty falls in the forest, does anyone hear it or care? His "barbs" mean nothing. He could not even garner 50% percent of the vote against some weak Democratic and a 3rd party candidate in his races. I'm guessing the vast majority of the GOP delegates either were daydreaming, went out for a smoke, or grabbed a ham sandwich at a sidewalk cafe when little Timmy took the stage.

Pawlenty is a phony windbag, whose tenure as governor of this state was a disaster. Fortunatley, Romney will lose the election so we won't have to see Pawlenty in a cabinet position.

He is too good of a match for Romney, they are almost indistinguishable A blind pursuit for power, for power's sake, with absolutely no vision except the blind pursuit of power itself. These are not leaders, nor are they particularity interesting at all. Wait a second, Mitt thinks he can be President, and then rule a planet as a god. Please, if you are Republican and actually think that this man should be leader of the free world, educate yourself about Mormonism. Just do it.

T-paws speech seemed forced to me. I guess that's what happens when you are trying to schill for a job if your nominee wins. He's sold his soul to the devil so he can play his tired song for the world to hear.

Hey Pawlenty you weren't very funny. So don't quit your day job. Oh that's right. You don't have a day job.

And here's a real knee slapper.... If our friend Tim were to come face to face with President Obama, he would fold like a cheap suit - like he did with big bad Romney.

Oh how I wish Pawlenty would attack me. I would wear that as a badge of honor.

The worst part about this person, is that he left Minnesota a mess, will have a pension for life and health insurance too. These are things he denied union members in this state. What a hypocrite.
