VIDEO: Iowa radio host asks Pawlenty about Bachmann dirt-digging
An Iowa radio host questioned former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty on a rumor that his campaign staff has been digging up dirt on Republican presidential rival U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann.
The WHO host, Simon Conway, said he had evidence, which he didn’t present, that former interns for Bachmann were being contacted and asked to “go on the record with dirt” on her campaign.
Pawlenty said he didn’t know anything of the practice and said the accusations probably weren’t based on the whole story.
Bloggers have previously blamed Pawlenty’s campaign for leaking a story that Bachmann suffers from migraines, which featured three anonymous sources, to the conservative Daily Caller. Pawlenty also denied the earlier accusations.
