Why is this loser running as a Republican?

Former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who is seeking to boost his flagging campaign, instead went after Minnesota Rep. Michelle Bachmann in the debate, dismissing her record of accomplishments and results in Congress as “nonexistent.”

“That’s not going to be good enough for our candidate for president of the United States,” he said. “The American people are going to expect more and demand more. And in fact we need somebody who can contrast with Barack Obama on results.”
