Recall Pawlenty?

The University of Minnesota "boosters" were in the Rotunda today spreading their enthusiasm throughout the Capitol. I had a nice chat with one of the boosters from Morris, MN who happened to be gay. He was admiring my rainbow gear and wanted to know where to get some so I steered him to Rainbow Road.

I thanked Senator, Sandy Pappas on the Senate stairs today for her work on the Domestic Partner Benefits bill. She was gracious and commented, "This is just main stream now," meaning the existence of domestic partner benefits. When I mentioned Pawlenty's veto threat she said, "He'll be vetoing many of our bills." After all their work, and I can that these legislators work hard, the knowledge of these impending vetoes must be a total downer for them. Perhaps a Pawlenty recall campaign is in order.

Tomorrow, Thursday, it's the House at 10:00 and the Senate at Noon.
