					<description><![CDATA[Time Pawlenty has become famous for his ability to be extraordinarily vague. Now we are seeing this in relation to the expected Minnesota State Supreme Court decision on the Franken-Coleman Senate election contest. For the most part, Pawlenty has signaled that he will only sign the election certificate if he is instructed to do so &#8230; <a href="https://gregladen.com/blog/2009/06/29/pawlenty-vague-on-singing-fran/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Pawlenty Vague on Signing Franken Into Senate</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
