Tim Palwenty has done it again. Readers will remember Pawlenty's Obomneycare witticism. It was a funny on the Sunday talk shows but when Pawlenty was given a chance to say it to Romney's face on the CNN debate he punted. Now he has a headache after his attack on Michele Bachmann. Pawlenty was probably behind the Daily Caller article that broke the news of Bachmann's migraine headaches. Then Pawlenty and Pawlenty alone questioned Bachmann's ability to serve as President. No other candidate took up the issue.
When New Hampshire State Rep. Win Hutchinson, a Pawlenty supporter, called the attack "lowest form of gutter politics" a Pawlenty aide was dispatched to sooth the Senator's ruffled feathers. The senator, apparently somewhat mollified by visit declared he is “with Pawlenty, for now.”
Does anyone wonder why this guy's campaign has fizzled so fast?
In addition to the fact that he just seems so....squishy. I just get the feeling that Pawlenty, who's admired by many, is sort of a good looking, younger, nicer, virile version of ....the undertaker Harry Reid.

I ran across an article I can't find again by a long time acquaintance who says Pawlenty is really just a diminutive, snarky lawyer who likes wearing dark suits.
