I reject the author's premise. The time to defend Bachmann is if she somehow wins the nomination. If she can't defend herself during the primaries, then she has no business running for President.

Sounds like NRO wants conservatives to come to Bachmann's aid NOW to save her so that she can continue to be the establishment's tool to stop Sarah from running. Sorry, not falling for this.

Where did you get that from this blog posting? Or is it just a narrative your pushing that you’ll attach to anything Bachmann related?

Then ,of course, we should do nothing to defend Palin who not only has not won the nomination but isn't even a candidate.

I disagree, triple E. I think the author is saying the attacks on a strong conservative woman are part of a slanderous mindset that must be resisted and attacked with ferocity. I agree....we saw under George W Bush what happens when you adopt a “new tone”. You get eaten alive.
