Pawlenty in MN-6

Public Policy Polling releases some more numbers (pdf) on MN-6, Michele Bachmannn's district.

Tim Pawlenty's approval rating is +13% (52-39), but only 32% want him to run for President in 2012. 50% don't.

Again, this is a Republican district -- Obama's approval rating there is 39%, and he lost the district to John McCain.

Pawlenty isn't running for governor again, so this isn't a case of Minnesotans being greedy and wanting to keep Pawlenty for themselves.

What is it?
