Contrary to the blame heaped on Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota after the Minneapolis bridge collapse, the people of Minnesota have never been more favorable toward their governor.
In the wake of the Minneapolis bridge collapse, Gov. Tim Pawlenty’s approval rating has climbed to its highest level recorded during his tenure in office, a new poll shows.The poll, conducted by SurveyUSA over the last weekend, found that 59 percent of Minnesotans approve of the job Pawlenty is doing at a time when the aftermath of the collapse has thrust him into the national spotlight.
Perhaps the people of Minnesota have a more sophisticated view of the tragedy in Minneapolis than the "Pawlenty opposed a tax increase and therefore a bridge collapsed" view one read in some quarters.
