More on the Minnesota gubernatorial

More on the Minnesota gubernatorial race: Republicans are breathing a sigh of relief after internal polling shows their candidate, Tim Pawlenty, maintaining his lead after the campaign-finance snafu that the Trunk blogged on last night. Curiously, Pawlenty enjoyed a bigger lead among people who knew about the campaign finance issue than among people who didn’t. Some credit this difference to Pawlenty’s rapid and decisive response to the problem; I think it reflects the fact that more Republicans than Democrats read newspapers.
