Today Michele Bachmanns spokesman, Ed Rollins, whom she recently hired, had some rather nasty things to say about Governor Palin. In order to give Bachmann the benefit of the doubt, we respectfully request that she either affirm her support for the long-time beltway fossils idiotic comments or refudiate them.
Update: (h/t Jim R) Via the Star Tribune, another of Bachmanns employees, Andy Parrish, attempted to rationalize the comments of her newest employee, Ed Rollins:
Bachmann aide Andy Parrish said Rollins was not speaking as a Bachmann adviser. The Congresswoman and Ms. Palin have an excellent relationship, Parrish said in an e-mail. Rollins was in his media analyst role.
People can judge for themselves whether this convenient excuse explanation is credible
or not.

Call 651-260-4648 to tell her what you think about Rollins!
BTW, Rollins doubled down on his attack against Palin with Chris Matthews today.
Ed Rollins: has been with a bad attitude.
On the topic of Michele Bachmann’s self immolation as a candidate, the latest in a long line of those who have attacked Sarah Palin and paid the price for it, I have only one word to say:
NEXT!!!!!

Representative Bachmann (R), has a narrow, short lived window of opportunity to set this right. Right now, her “spokesmen” are taking a very bad job and making it worse, and bigger.
Waiting for the seppuku of her wayward retainers.
In his roll as analyst, and not in roll as campaign advisor? Really? He’s a CNN analyst and this was not on CNN. Weak excuse IMO.
PING!!

She better fix this fast. Not happy with her choices so far. Ed Rollins is a putz
He trashed her again on Chrissy Matthews show, or so I hear(I refuse to watch that progressive network) if this is the kind of politics Michele wants to play I want no part of her..its not just because she sends her hired goons to trash Sarah, its the fact that she is proving what a backstabber she is(And I am saying this as someone who has always supported Michele Bachmann, I wanted them both to be on the same ticket for goodness sake!)..Sarah Palin campaigned for this woman, how can she turn around and allow this guy to trash her like this. Michele has to put an end to this or else all she is showing is that she is just like every other politician out there..a sleazy one
Heads will role?
LOL. DOA and some.
It would be so refreshing to see civilized, policy discussions during the GOP primary debates and keep the heavy artillery for Obama.
I called a different number earlier today, but thanks for posting this number, I called it too...
I question her judgement in having him as a consultant, trashing Palin..and I let her know it.
Not DOA, stillborn.
Touche. Got me.
People had a fit when I and others questioned her judgement over the birther issue. She isn’t helping her cause hiring one of the uber-RINOS to lead her campaign.
She has some excellent qualities. Too bad.
For some prime entertainment, this would be a great time to temporarily unban ‘pissant’.
Yeah, tell me about it. Note that I changed my tagline.
