I’m sure we haven’t heard the last from her. Too bad her district forced her to retire.

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?

I believe Michele Bachmann said from the beginning that she would only serve a few terms.

I dont know. Perhaps she was threatened by the regime?

She was probably tired of it all, especially being attacked, her and her husband (the faggots really went after her husband).

She always underperformed in her seat (the most GOP in MN). She ran behind the top of the GOP ticket (Governor in 06/10, POTUS in 08/12) in all of her elections, nearly losing in 2012 even as Romney easily took the district with 56.5% of the vote.

I'd like to know, too.

I don't agree with everything she has said and done but I do like her courage.
