Capitol View

Pawlenty headed to VA for more politicking.

Posted at 11:56 AM on September 8, 2009 by Tom Scheck

AP is reporting that Gov. Pawlenty is headed to Virginia on Wednesday to campaign for a GOP candidate for governor. Who's taking wagers on whether Pawlenty also appears on cable TV to rebut President Obama's speech on health care? (Update: Pawlenty said he may appear on some TV programs to rebut Obama's health address. He would not say which shows).

Pawlenty, who won't say whether he's running for president but is making all of the moves of a 2012 hopeful, will also hold a conference call with GOP supporters on health care on Thursday morning. That call is sponsored by the Republican Governor's Association.
