Michele Bachmann's Presidential Ambitions Take Her To New Hampshire, With Husband And Kids In Tow
ABC ^ | 3/11/11 | Amy Walter

ABC News’ Amy Walter and Michael Falcone report:

Rep. Michele Bachmann, the leader of the House Tea Party caucus and a favorite of conservatives, is wading deeper into presidential waters this weekend with a multi-stop trip to the first-in-the-nation primary state of New Hampshire.

Bachmann’s main event in the Granite State will be a Saturday speech at a fundraising brunch organized by the New Hampshire Republican State Committee.

A source close to Bachmann said the Minnesota Republican “will be talking about how beating Obama starts with defunding ObamaCare and the need for a constitutional conservative to be the Republican nominee.”

Whether Bachmann wants a shot at becoming that nominee remains an open question, but she’s certainly not shying away from the speculation nor is she shunning all the media attention. Not only will C-SPAN cameras be present for her speech in Nashua but Bachmann announced on Friday that she would be streaming it live on her Facebook page. (She invited supporters to tune in at about 11:25 a.m. ET.)

And Bachmann won’t be flying solo in New Hampshire either. She will be accompanied by at least three of her children and her husband, Marcus. The Bachmanns have five children and have provided foster care to 23 others.

DeMint and Bachmann would be a dream team.

Not to turn this into a beauty contest or anything, but Michelle is WAY hotter than, well, that beauty queen.

That may be the overarching sentiment. We’ll see. But I’ll take a black, a woman, a pygmy or a transvestite IF they are genuinely dedicated to our constitution and the restoration of our Republic. Nothing else matters to me. Personalties, pedigrees, resumes matter not in the least if you do not have an unshakable belief about what’s needed for the restoration. We have reached critical mass.

Michele Bachmann has more spine and guts that 99% of the politicians in DC.

She gave a speech at the Rightonline conference last year. Went way overtime but no one cared because it was a great speech from the heart and mind (no telepromter)
