With GOP presidential frontrunner Mitt Romney just moments away from a rally in Eagan with former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, the Democratic National Committee helpfully chimed in with a 2,400-word document (image courtesy of Politico) highlighting all of Pawlenty's attacks on the former Massachusetts governor while Pawlenty was still in the hunt for the GOP presidential nomination. One of the lead quotes is "I don't think we can have a nominee that was involved in the development and construction of Obama-Care." This theme has been one of Romney's chief hurdles in the GOP primary race, and, to the GOP's chagrin, does not appear to be going away anytime soon.
