Gov. Tim Pawlenty has the "largest and most formal" political organization in Iowa among the 2012 GOP presidential contenders, according to an analysis by the web site IowaPolitics.com. Pawlenty has at least six Iowans on the payroll as he seeks to enhance his name recognition and lay the groundwork for a likely presidential campaign.
