If I were Bachmann, Rollins would be gone TODAY. Whatever else he might bring to the table is more than offset with this horrific start.

bachmen is officiall finished.

the ONLY reason for her in race is to be the “cat fight” distractor from the issues.

I hope we hear the sound of wallets closing in the face of backman.

Truly sad. Add Mrs Bachmann to the rota of egocentric, fork-tongued politicians.

Additionally, she was not dismissive of other Bachmann qualities as Rollins is of Gov Palin.

She needs to straighten this out quick, the stupid woman. I’ve been defending her and now she does this?

Palin was specifically asked if there were differences between them after she had spoken well of Bachmann, and though Palin said she had the executive experience (very true and pertinent!), she also volunteered that Bachmann had her strengths as well.

“She must repudiate the idiot, and probably fire him.”
/// YES. ...not just “explain”, etc.
if she keeps him, she endorses those remarks.
just as Palin endorsed her.

i liked Bachmann very much before. her Foster care work alone, was very impressive.
but hiring Rollins, shows poor judgment. which we can’t afford in 2012, in fixing the countries real and growing problems.

If Bachmann doesn’t fire Rolling today, she has no chance of getting the nomination.

Bachmann had better dump Rollins by week’s end. I find it hard to believe she’d give him the green light to say these things, which suggests he’s a loose cannon. He has been on Kilmeade’s show before and always sounds contemptuous and angry.

Michelle, time to get a new "top consultant". Sarah isn't even running yet, and this guy is having a hissy fit.

Michelle isn't going to do herself any favors by allowing her staff to attack Sarah.

Ed Rollins. Well there goes the argument that Bachmann is a more savvy political player. Palin has been conspicuously nice to everyone except obummer.

Did we not tell him that Rollins job was to attack other candidates? Which means Palin who he has consistently attack? Rollins is going to damage MB more than actually help her! It’s her fault

I’d be happier even if she was a Senator. At least that would prove that an entire state supported her and not just one congressional district.

What we don’t need is Ed Rollins. Michelle Bachmann doesn’t need him either. He is a hack loser of a political consultant. Picking him showed really bad judgement on her part.

Right you are - executive experience.

Palin gave Bachmann a shot yesterday saying that Bachmann had no management experience.

Well yea, Sarah did say "Game ON" did she not? And she took the first shot! So not surprising Bachmans team to fire back.

LET THE GAMES BEGIN! Going to be a great ride!
