Rybak: Pawlenty “is going to get his butt kicked by Barack Obama…”
There has been plenty of discussion about whether Gov. Pawlenty will make a run for the White House in 2012. Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak, a Democrat, doesn't seem to concerned.
On Fox Business this morning, Rybak said Pawlenty will "get his butt kicked by Barack Obama."
Rybak also sidestepped a question on whether he'll run for governor ("We'll figure that out tomorrow," he said.)
The quote is about 5:00 in. One clarification: The host is incorrect in her statement that Pawlenty says "he's going to go for the White House."
