Is Pawlenty the One?

We're not sure if Pawlenty will be McCain's running mate but we know he's going to sign a Proclamation on Wednesday morning making Minnesota a 'ONE State.' DFL Sen. Amy Klobuchar will also be present for the signing.

Pawlenty is sticking around Minnesota over the next few days. He has two public events on his schedule today. He's holding a fundraiser for GOP Sen. Norm Coleman tomorrow morning (closed press -- Grrr!) and is also signing the proclamation. On Thursday night, he's attending the Future Leaders for McCain Reception at the Eagle Street Grille.

Pawlenty will rack up some more of those frequent flyer miles this weekend. He says he'll campaign for McCain in Pennsylvania and Ohio.

NOTE: Thanks to everyone who is sending along fundraising letters, e-mail and other campaign literature. This is a reminder to keep sending the stuff to tscheck@mpr.org or fax them to 651 227 5238.
