South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson is endorsing Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty for president, Pawlenty’s campaign announced Thursday.
Wilson, first elected to Congress in 2001, famously yelled “you lie!” during Barack Obama’s speech to a joint session of Congress ... is the first member of Congress outside of Minnesota to endorse Pawlenty.
The second was from today's Times article about the implosion of Newt Gingrich's campaign:
Former Gov. Sonny Perdue of Georgia, a national co-chairman of the Gingrich campaign, withdrew his endorsement and said he would support Tim Pawlenty, a former governor of Minnesota.
The Republican establishment may be making its move. Looks like they've given up on a White Knight entering the race and are now coalescing around T-Paw as the un-Romney. Even the Wall Street Journal is on board.
