I watched the event and I do believe that when Herman Cain was speaking, Michele Bachmann was entering from the back and stopped to shake hands along the way before taking her seat. (I may have the speaker mixed up but she did do that). Not so good. If she was late, she should have quietly taken her seat.
btw -- have you seen this?
I believe the author said the journalists were totally ignoring Representative Bachmann’s speech and presentation as they were bunched up in a frenzy trying to throw questions out to Herman Cain concerning his recent statements that have been in the news of late.
I had not realized Representative Bachmann had come in late.
