Starting to look at a battleground state

Posted at 2:01 PM on April 10, 2006 by Bob Collins (3 Comments)

On the heels of rising "Senate star" Barak Obama's visit, Gov. Pawlenty announced today that Sen. John McCain (an already risen star) will be in town on Wednesday.

The press release said nothing, zero, nada about why McCain is here, only that there'll be media availability with McCain at the Capitol Wednesday. But the release was issued on the campaign stationery.

Pawlenty and McCain on the same podium. Hmmmm...

Polinaut is still chuckling about McCain's ability to completely disarm philosophical opponents, as he did on The Daily Show to Jon Stewart the other night, finally getting Stewart to say, "don't make me love you."

I got a fundraising invite. McCain is here for a high priced fundraiser for Tim Pawlenty.
