This is the smartest thing I have seen Bachmann do. Why should she take the bait to bash another conservative, let alone answer a hypothetical within hypothetical?

Smart? You gotta be kidding me. She knows she has no shot and has exposed herself as someone else's water carrier.

Smart is Gov Palin, the more the better.

One major thing wrong with your comment, the question didn't call for her to bash Palin, it called for an opinion on a Palin run if Bachman didn't run. Why would she have to bash palin? She wouldn't. She didn't answer because she didn't want to say anything good about Palin and if she did it would have been a lie.

The woman is two faced and not the person she would have tea partiers believe she is.
