She was my first choice followed by Cain and then Santorum but after listening to Santorum it would be a toss up between Bachmann and Santorum.

Santorum is saying the right things these days and Bachmann is doing her job.

RE: Bachmann is doing her job.

She barely escaped by the skin of her teeth last November. Meanwhile, her fellow Tea Party conservatives were all VOTED OUT of office ( see: Col. Allen West and Connie Mack ).

She’s a good conservative. One I trust. It’s a shame she has been smeared so horrifically by the left. Disgusting that anyone in her district would ever consider voting for that twerp Graves.

Bachmann has more authority on foreign affairs than morons like McCain ever will.

Santorum was my guy. I like a lot of Michelle’s positions on issues but I question her ability to actually be President. Yeah that’s a bit amorphous I know. Certainly better than what we have now and better than Feckless Mitt.

I met Michelle, talked to her and she IS the real deal.

Happy to have voted for her!

Were right in hindsight?

I saw them as right from the very moment they left her mouth.

Because Conservatives in her state and others need to be reminded of what THEY DID NOT DO.

Just because one dislikes Mitt Romney is no reason to stay home and allow this disaster to come to us for the next 4 years.

Sounds to me like you’re headed for a very unhappy future as you decide you want to tolerate some filthy tea partiers or just join the democrats.

Out of the multitude of possible choices out there you pick ONLY THESE TWO?

You’re the one making it very clear that everything is the fault of the conservatives. Romney lost because he sucked.

If you think a moderate will have a better chance again next time, you better get used to disappointment.

Too Little too late. Something happened in 2011-12 that caused a infighting on the right and it crumbled a bit. First, Bachmann had a chance to win the presidency and nobody was listening. Secondly, the left aimed to take down five people..Mia Love, Allen West, Michelle Bachmann, Todd Akin and Richard Murdock and on Michelle won. So it is late in the hour to be lamenting the past. We have to fight harder next time and not implode into infighting.

Correction: IT WAS THE FAULT OF THE CONSERVATIVES WHO STAYED HOME.

AS for Romney, yes he’s no conservative, but the alternative is what we have now.

RE: If you think a moderate will have a better chance again next time, you better get used to disappointment

And you bet I’d still vote for the lesser of two evils if only to prevent the greater evil from occurring.

And yeah, why stay home when you can leave the presidency blank and still vote for someone like Bachmann and West?

Has it not occurred to you that there are not as many Tea Party voters as we thought there would be?
