MN Gov. Pawlenty endorses Tea Party movement & Michele Bachman

[qb]

Pawlenty endorsed the Tea Party movement and one of its top enthusiasts, U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., whom he called "a powerful, strong, clear voice for the conservative movement in this country."

I guess he sees crazies as his only hope of advancing on the national political front.

He also, of course, bashed President Obama.

ST. PAUL, Minn. – Here's something Target Corp. isn't advertising in its Sunday circular: The discount retailer is now a major donor to a group backing the Republican candidate for Minnesota governor.
And that's not sitting well with every Target shopper.

Under new laws allowing corporations to spend company money on election campaigns, the Minneapolis-based chain gave $150,000 to a Republican-friendly political fund staffed by insiders from departing GOP Gov. Tim Pawlenty's administration. The group, MN Forward, is running TV ads supporting state legislator Tom Emmer, the presumptive GOP nominee.

2. Desperation Time, Timmy?

Thin Polenta apparently licked his finger and stuck it up in the air before making this statement. He has no chance at political success on the national level, and is now trying desperation moves. A little birdy, or a crazy-eyed woman, has convinced him that "The Merkin People" want a teabagger as a candidate, so, Presto-Changeo, Thin Polenta spins around three times and emerges as a teabagger.

Psst...Psst...Timmy...the teabaggers won't buy it. For them, you are, and will always be, a RINO.

Better start looking for work.

5. Pawlenty has already sold his soul to the Devil.

So now the ultimate decision: Would Tim Pawlenty's ambition to get to Washington accept the Vice Presidential position on the Sara Palin ticket?

I believe he would.

6. We have been telling peple for the last eight years that

Phewlenty is as nuts as Bachmann. So he proved it.
