From CNN's Richard Allen Greene

ST. PAUL, Minnesota (CNN) – Republican National Committee co-chair Jo
Anne Davidson mistakenly referred to the party's presumptive vice-presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, as "Sarah Pawlenty" at the Republican National Convention Tuesday.

Palin, the governor of Alaska, was a surprise choice to join Sen. John McCain on the Republican ticket. Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty had been considered one of the front-runners for the slot.

1. I almost feel bad for ol' Tim right now

4. No need. He's a Republican and as crooked as they come.

2. Ouch. That hurt.

3. Sarah Pawlenty. Sarah Tancredo. Whatever.

5. D'oh.

That had to have been a little more salt rubbed in Timmy's wounds.

6. Makes me wonder if they'll pull out a 'Palin bows out to help her daughter' thing...

then they bring Pawlenty out.

It would give the repukes a do-over. Kinda looks like they need it now.

7. That was my first thought hearing that slip.
