MINNETONKA - Former Minnesota governor and TV actor Tim Pawlenty announced on Monday that he had formed an exploratory committee, effectively calling "dibs" on the 2012 Republican presidential nomination. While many Republican voters don't know Pawlenty they do know Gomer Pyle, the character he played on the The Andy Griffith Show and on Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C.. Pawlenty cites his faux Mayberry roots and pretend military experience as evidence of grassroots credentials. He often emphasizes his support for the military by saying "I'm not a marine, but I played one on TV."
