I’m sure we haven’t heard the last from her.
Too bad her district forced her to retire.
She’ll do something next…have any idea what that might be?
Most of us in her district still admire her a lot. I will also miss her as she spoke truth to power without flinching, a virtue largely lost in this generation.
We have elected Tom Emmer to replace Michele. I believer he will be a worthy successor to her. Already some newspaper editors are bemoaning the fact that he is adamantly conservative and they are ‘hoping’ he will be less caustic than Michele. I personally like Tom because he is steadfast and unapologetic in his Conservative beliefs. The fact that liberals are worried about him speaks volumes.
Minnesota’s 6th Congressional District remains staunchly conservative GOP.
Her district did not force Bachmann to retire. She did not lose an election. She announced she wasn't going to run for re-election many months ago.
Would anyone have any idea as to the real reason(s) Bachmann stepped down?
