Today's Unfortunate Analogy

Coming on the day of Tiger Woods' mea culpa speech, I think this was probably an unfortunate choice of words by Gov. Tim Pawlenty:

Gov. Tim Pawlenty (R., Minn.) says the GOP’s model for 2010 is . . . Elin Nordegren, Tiger Woods’s wife. Republicans can “learn a lot” from her, he said. “Let’s take a page out of her playbook and take a 9-iron” to “smash” the Obama agenda.

I'm sure somebody told him that was a funny line, but I don't think it will play all that well.
