He held the line

Governor Pawlenty in a fundraising E-mail informs us he held the line on taxes. While that’s great, but when he was holding on to that line taxes spending continued to escalate, and then this session they decided to spend a billion and a half, and that’s before we do anything around the Twins or Gophers stadium sites. I guess the justification is, yeah but the other guy is worse so hey send me a check to reelect me.

It begs the question why isn't Phil Krinke running for Governor? I think we all know that answer, it's because he isn't a professional liar, and Republican party leadership demands that of their candidates.
