Gov. Pawlenty sat down with Michigan Radio's Kaomi Goetz during his time in Michigan. Kaomi sent along her interview which you can listen to here.
Pawlenty denied to address the rising speculation that he could be John McCain's running mate:
"I've stopped engaging in all of the back and forth regarding the vice-presidential questions. Each day I get asked about it for many weeks and months and just every word I change in any answer somebody thinks is significant and it just fuels more speculation so I just stopped engaging in it because I think it just fuels more speculation."
He added that the VP choice "is just going to have to be decided by Senator McCain."
Pawlenty is in Michigan to address the Kent County GOP Lincoln Day Dinner.
Pawlenty will also be speaking to the National Press Club in a few weeks.
