Isn’t Bachmann oneof the GOP incumbents that the NRCCwanted to see lose? (At least, that’s the only wy I can interpret their withdrawal of any financial support.)

I suspect that they’re already recruiting a primary challneger.

Elwyn Twinklenbeg? Is that someone’s actual name?

Nice:-) Thanks Michelle, for having the guts to tell it like it is.

Now lets get Coleman elected and at least we’ll have those 2!

If there is a future for free speech in America and for the conservative movement, I hope Bachmann’s part of it.

Elwyn Tinklenberg

Was she running against a friggin' Hobbit?? Elwyn Tinklenberg??

Anyway, she's awesome and the type person we need to rebuild the party around.

She showed against Chrissy Matthews that she has fire and is a fighter.

That's what the Republican Party needs - good, honest, smart FIGHTERS!

Imagine that.

A conservative with guts won in a tough year for Republicans with the press and SOROS against her and the GOP trying to abandon her.

Think the GOP would learn from that? Not likely.

Sadly, it looks like we will lose conservative Rep. Tim Walberg here in Michigan. :( He’s down about 4200 votes with about 90% of the vote in. That’s after Rep. Joe Knollenberg was also beaten.
