Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty said he is co-chairing a committee that will explore the possible presidential candidacy of U.S. Sen. John McCain of Arizona.
Pawlenty told Fox News that McCain is a once-in-a-generation leader who can bring the country together.
The second-term GOP governor has been mentioned as a possible vice presidential running mate. But he told Fox News that he is "very happy being the governor of Minnesota."
