I’ll admit I thought it was a joke when I read the news on a local blog.
I’m even a bit WTF? about it…

So far Tim Pawlenty seems to have the proper conservative response…”Congratulations”.

Folks can sit around discussing the “why” and “how” and say “WTF?”, but (and I hate to seem like a concern troll and I probably do) an “official” response from the Republicans that is anything but “congratulations, what an honor for our President and the American people” comes across as just, well, rude and a bit mean-spirited.
