My Governor, the Lezbo

There is a chance that, even if you don't live in Minnesota, you know who Tim Pawlenty is. You might not know him as the Governor of this state; you may know him as that skeezy slightly-too-slick man on the television that speaks with an easy, flat tone. You may know him as ex-top cheerleader for the 2004 Bush Campaign, where his pom-pons waved so hard it has been said that the wind they generated was able to power all of Minnesota's wind energy supply from September-November 2004 (this is Minnesota, after all, where weird shit like a large man creating all our lakes and the amazing collapso-bridge happen). Or you may know him simply as a prime yet unsung candidate for Men who Look Like old Lesbians.




Yeah, that's right. The last two governors we've had have either resembled lesbians or been pro wrestlers. We're on the verge of possibly electing a professional comedian as Senator (something I am terribly in favor of). This is all old news. What isn't old news is the possibility of Tim Pawlenty being named the Veep candidate on the McCain ticket. He might have cut his trademark mullet, but there is a chance that this will suddenly become the face of Minnesota on a national level:



Fuck close enough.
