CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) -- Presidential candidate Michele Bachmann is dismissing concerns about the strength of her campaign, saying she's the Republican with the best conservative credentials and "the complete skill set" to become president.

She is 100 percent correct.

My order of candidates.

Palin
Cain
Santorum
Bachmann

And that is it. If one of those four patriotic conservative Americans are not our candidate then I am writing in Palin. I will repeat myself. If the American people don’t want a true conservative from one of those four patriotic conservative Americans than I want nothing to do with the party and will write in Palin. I am sick and tired of these RINOs that they true to force on us. I considered holding my nose again for Perry but his arrogance and sassy mouth calling me heartless because I refuse to give aliens free bennies is fine. He can think that way about me but I will not vote for him.

seriously, bachmann, santorum, huntsman, and the gay guy on the left (whoever that was) from the last debate need to give it up, and let those that actually have a chance duke it out.

She is 100 percent correct. Are you one of those RINO supporters? Why are you on this site if you don’t agree with her statement......very strange situation you are in. You don’t agree that we need a true conservative but yet you are here.....hummmmmmmmm.

Bachmann cannot answer a simple question. She lost me when she was asked what percentage of income someone should be allowed to keep and she said 100%.

Bachmann is, of course, correct. Whomever the nominee is, we need a true conservative now more than ever.

Nominating Romney or, less plausibly, Huntsman would be a disaster not only for the party but more importantly for the nation.

I originally was for Bachmann but she looked completely foolish in the last two debates. The one on fox she had a deer in headlights look the whole time and made no sense.

I am with Cain now until Sarah jumps in.

Sarah Palin or Herman Cain best fit the bill.

I agree with her.

She, Cain and Santorum are it.

I kinda agree with you....she was higher on my list a few weeks ago, but would not have to hold my nose to vote for her if she somehow ends up with it. I would walk in the voting booth proudly and pull the lever for her. She has made some errors in this campaign but one thing she is, is passionate and her voting record is dang good so I still would give her 100 percent support if she were the nominee.

The correct answer is that the premise of the queston is wrong. "Allowed to keep," as if the money belongs to the government and they are allowing people to keep some.

The correct question is: "How much money should the government be allowed to take for the people that earned it?"

Bachmann: GOP nominee must be true conservative

Me: GOP nominee must be much more specific than just bumper sticker slogans.

Isn’t Bachmann the lady that raised 1000 children and later rented a grandpa, Ed Rollins?

Sarah Palin will most likely not run as long as Bachmann is in it. Bachmann needs to step down. Besides, governors and former governors have a much better chance to win the Presidency than reps in congress.

Any other answer would have given critics a number to beat her with.

Perry was the one who couldn't spit out a clear answer to a simple question at the third debate.
