Basically, yup. A clod in the bottom echelon of our current Governors. He wouldn’t have won reelection had the bubble-headed RINO apostate that Pawlenty’s Dem opponent chose as a running mate hadn’t opened her mouth.

None of those four, I hope. Maybe it’s deliberate that McCain would want an unaccomplished non-entity who doesn’t overshadow him. In which case, we’re probably going to get someone really crappy.

Yeah, but that’s like taking home a serious date to meet the parents, and they’ve been informed he’s done a stint in prison, but instead of being a multiple-murderer, he only robbed a bank and permanently crippled a guard. :-\

You Romney supporters are so cute when you pretend to be conservative.

Romney is a drug that takes the sycophant on a Magical Mystery Tour and causes them to actually believe that Flip is a conservative. Yup, they believe that with their whole mind, body and soul.

Hopefully nObama does not find out what the formulation for that drug is because these same folks will be spewing the conservative virtues of nObama if he does.

One minor augmentation of that visual...

All because he wanted to get to have a long lunch at...

Hope the steak was worth it, Slick Willard.

Ignore them...

We would have lost with TWO old rich white guys...

Especially Romney born with a silver spoon in his mouth...

Obama is given a speech to combat Romney...

Its more of the poor humble beginnings...American Dream..hard work led to success story...

Pawlenty comes from regular working folk...

And is YOUNG...47

Pawlenty was born on November 27, 1960, in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and raised in nearby South St. Paul, one of five children of a milk truck driver and a housewife.[2] When he was 16, his mother died of cancer. Pawlenty took to hockey and played on his high school’s junior varsity squad.[3]

In 1983, Pawlenty received a degree in Political Science at the University of Minnesota College of Liberal Arts.[4] In 1986, he graduated with a law degree from the University of Minnesota Law School.[5] In law school, he met fellow student Mary Anderson and one year later they married, settling in Eagan, Minnesota.

As a practicing attorney, Pawlenty’s first job was as a labor law attorney at the firm Rider Bennett, where he had interned during school.[6] Later he was Vice President for the internet company Wizmo Consulting Group.[7]

In 1994, his wife Mary was appointed as a judge of the Dakota County District Court in Hastings, Minnesota and the two began raising their two daughters, Anna and Mara. After he was elected in 2002, the family remained at their Eagan home instead of moving into the Governor’s Residence because of Mary’s requirement to stay in her judicial district.[8] In 2007, she left her judicial position to become General Counsel of the National Arbitration Forum, a dispute resolution company based in Minneapolis.[9] She stayed on only briefly before departing for another dispute resolution company, the Gilbert Mediation Center.[10]

Of Polish and German heritage, Pawlenty was raised a Roman Catholic. His conversion to an Evangelical Christian faith is largely attributed to his wife Mary, who is a regular member of Wooddale Church in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.[11] The church is part of the Minnesota Baptist Conference, and the senior pastor, Leith Anderson, is the president of the National Association of Evangelicals.[12][1]

Check post #79 for my opinion on that. Always remember that I judge ALL those with “R’s” with the same ruler. They’ve either succeeded, or they’ve failed.

The judge in the picture you posted looks a lot like the woman who was counting the roll call votes at the Dem convention last night.

Well, Sean Hannity did tell me that it’s 100% corn fed beef cooked in a 1500 degree oven. That’s a lot to pass up.

Two for the price of one.

It’s a small world and Lord knows that the Dems give promotions to people like her, so it could have been her. Never know...
