Thomas Sowell "Gov. Pawlenty fought Minnesota's transit unions over runaway pensions and hung tough during a long strike. "Today," he says, "we have a transit system that gives commuters a ride, without taking the taxpayers for a ride."
"Some fear that Gov. Pawlenty doesn't have the charisma and fireworks rhetoric that they would like to see in a candidate. Charisma and rhetoric are what gave us the current disastrous administration in Washington. .....*
"Politicians and the media may want a candidate with verbal fireworks, but the people want jobs. As Pawlenty put it: "Fluffy promises of hope and change don't buy our groceries, make our mortgage payments, put gas in our cars, or pay for our children's clothes.""
* Deleted a reference to Hitler. Sorry; I couldn't handle another one of those, not even from Mr. Sowell.
