Oh well she served her purpose... Right Mitt?

If that was the case, wouldn't this person be jumping ship for Mittens?

What does any of this have to do with Michelle Bachmann?

A crackpot who had worked for her leaves to reveal his inner Paulian; and a PAC which had supported her no longer does.

Why do either of these things make Bachmann a worse candidate from a policy perspective?

He probably couldn’t take hearing about her twenty-three foster children one more time. What a leap from Bachman to Paul, lol.

She has lost her inner circle more than once.

One must ask WHY?

This is just further evidence that these second tier candidates are not going to make it. They only serve to keep the Not Romney’s fractured.

I know some won’t like it, but that goes for Rick Perry too (who I actually like). Right now he’s competing with Bachmann for 5th in Iowa. Down state he barely registers. They say he had big bank at one time. Does he still today? He’s been spending big in Iowa. Perry’s last stand may come on Jan 3rd - especially if he performs as he is currently polling.

It doesn't. It raises questions about organization, viability, leadership, etc. You know, some Bachmann folks might want to understand that there is more to life than just "policy."

Ah, the old ‘somebody did somebody wrong’ thingie. At lease he didn’t drool on her.
Michelle can dish it out but sometimes I still feel sorry for her, lol.

I should have copy and pasted the article so others don’t have to go there.

Candidates, who don’t have a chance, typically aren’t running for the actual position. They are usually running to create interest for themselves so they get a better deal in the House or Senate or wherever they do end up running.

What I don't understand is why Bachmann hasn't caught on. I think she is great. She is anti abortion, anti illegals, anti tax and for strong military. She is a woman for goodness sakes, think of the womens vote she will draw in.

I really don't understand it. I thought she was very well spoken, looked good, spoke well and has been a good person in her personal life, she would be one tough girl to beat in the general.

It is looking more and more that Mitt is out foxing people who should have been able to do better. If Mitt wins the nomination I hope he will at least pull Michelle Bachmann into his close circle of advisors. She has the right answer for nearly any question. She sure would have been great against Hitlary.

So much for any credibility that Kent Sorenson had. He was the one starting unfounded rumors about Cain.

Selling one’s self to the highest bidder. There is term for that.

That is the last thing in the world that I would support.

Some of us have thought that was the Bachmann motive for a while now....

Substantiating a bad rumor using the blatherings of a Ron Paul supporter isn’t very wise.

Really? Stick around FR or a while and you'll find out. I've not the energy to splain it.

I haven’t seen many women that were enthralled with Bachmann. Some were a little queasy.
