Because At Least Two People Have Claimed This Stupid Thing

Pawlenty is a phony. I dont believe a word he says. He is exactly the kind of guy who would say a bunch of bold stuff and then once elected, back off it all and do nothing. Be warned. The guy isnt a conservative, no matter what he says....cap and trade? No serious conservative thinker would ever give a seconds thought to that scam and we know Pawlenty backed it at one point. Dont like him....dont trust him....his words wont change that.

So your theory is that T-Paw is making the difficult, vote-losing, support-losing, caucus-losing statement up front, but he's lying, he actually intends to keep the ethanol gravy train rolling, but instead of saying that (which could win him Iowa), he actually writes off a state and gives up support from that state...

...so that he can then, later, when he owes nothing to Iowa farmers (because they voted against him), give them everything they wanted from him in the first place?

This passes as a sound theory now?

Yes, two people wrote this. At least two I saw.

If it had just been one, I would have skipped it.

Two.

Two people figure that Pawlenty is probably planning on bribing Iowans to vote for him, except later, after they have voted against him already and his bribe is therefore pointless.

I kinda get the feeling some people aren't really analyzing this rationally and with an open mind.
