(CNN) – Republican presidential candidate Tim Pawlenty said Sunday he remained uncertain over whether homosexuality is biological or a choice.

“As I understand the science, there’s no current conclusion that it’s genetic,” Pawlenty said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

“There’s no scientific conclusion that it's genetic. We don't know that. So, we don't know to what extent it's behavioral,” Pawlenty said. “That's something that has been debated by scientists for a long time.”

“I'm a supporter of traditional marriage between a man and a woman,” Pawlenty said. “I have not supported the issues of allowing gay couples to have the same benefits in public employment as traditional couples.”

1. Yeah, I saw him today

He knows that he only has a tiny bit of time between now and the Ames poll to pull his candidacy out of the toilet. If he doesn't come in first or second there, he's toast. That's especially true because Mittens doesn't want to piss away a few million dollars in Ames like he did four years ago, just to get trounced by the fundies who hate his religion.

It seemed curious to me that MTP tossed him this amount of free time to spar with Bachmann, they'd never give that to Herman Cain or Ron Paul. But maybe they were hoping for a little Republicon catfight.
