Tim Pawlenty: Is He Too Nice?

A recent charge against the 2012 Republican presidential contender is that he may be too nice. He responded recently to this by saying that it is possible to be nice and strong, and that this is his style. But is it such a good idea for him to try this tactic? I don’t think so!

If I were his political strategist, I’d suggest this strategy instead: He should deny he’s nice, and say he’s a jerk! Then he should prove it by making fun of a fat person, telling dirty and racist jokes, acting like the laws don’t apply to him because he’s a rich politician, and then simply flipping-off the audience and mooning everyone. Then he could drink too much, hit on Michele Bachmann, and throw up on Mitt Romney in the next debate. Then he’d solve that problem of nobody knowing who he is! Right?

So, am I hired?
