Gov. Pawlenty is headed to Iowa later this week and has several campaign stops on his schedule.

On Wednesday night, he's scheduled to raise money for Iowa state Rep. Erik Helland.

He will also hold a breakfast fundraiser for Terry Branstad on Thursday morning. Pawlenty will then visit the Iowa State Fair where he'll do several radio interviews. He wraps up his trip by holding a fundraiser for Brad Zaun's bid for Congress.

This is Pawlenty's second trip to Iowa this month. Pawlenty is ramping up a possible run for the White House. He said he won't make a final decision on his future until early next year.

I wonder if Governor Pawlenty get an advice from Brad Zaun on how to handle questions on ethanol subsidies ... Zaun opposed them during the Republican primary, but now it's general election time, he has changed his mind.
