Bachman is an excellent candidate but she has been annihilated by the left/msm for her “shrillness” Even Republicans have bashed her on it, which is ridiculous. She’s the closest (along with Santorum) to a TP candidate and some conservative detractors can’t even get past the decibels of her voice inflections. Sheesh.
I chalk up the left/msm’s rabid aversion to MB to misogyny, not sure why the right has rejected her. Because “she can’t win” against zero?? Anyone can win against him. I think now is the time for a woman presidential candidate, and MB should be it.
The issue in Michigan might be the Dems that vote in our “Closed Primary”. Will they vote for Mitts, or RuPaul?
If Santorum is still running, I’ll vote for him. At least he knows hockey. When he’s been on local talk radio, it always seems the last few minutes turn into hockey talk.
And that's wierd. It's not as if Minnesota doesn't have a long standing tradition in hockey. The University Of Minnesota has a fine tradition in collegiate hockey.
Bachmann used to drive my wife and mother-n-law crazy. First, it was hair. Then it was her make-up. Then it was her voice. But now...finally, they're seeing the light as the Gingrichgasms have started to fade. LOL!

As for the voice, they need to put on their big boy pants and big girl panties, and realize that Bachmann isn't going to be making appearances on the Tonight Show.

That, and there's no way the left wants the first female POTUS to be a conservative. That would destroy their Republicans hate women rhetoric.
Anyone can win against him.
Yes they can. And first, I'll vote my princples. When I'm given no other choice, I'll vote RINO and then take a long hot bath. LOL!
not sure why the right has rejected her.
I think it has to do with the stupid label. I think people have been snookered into believing that she just isn't smart enough to be Obama. An eggplant is smarting than Obama. But somehow, Michele apparently doesn't "sound" smart enough.
And once again we're back to princples. Bachmann and Santorum's records are far more conservative than anyone else in the race. It's that simple. I will support the most conservative candidates until there is simply no other alternative. It's a shame that others are already doing the yeah, but I can overlook that.
Here's an idea. How about all the candidates that aren't principally conservative drop out, and let's see what happens then.
Maybe it is because of such blatant Romney attack style lies that Gingrich is pro-partial birth abortion. She said exactly that during a debate.
I am a Santorum supporter, and I really do like Bachmann, but that lame stupid ignorant attack sunk her for me.
You will not find a more conservative Christian than me, but she permanently destroyed her own candidacy with that attack on nation wide TV. So many things to attack Gingrich on, and she chose one that was so far from the truth that she made herself look stupid.
We need someone who will win against Obama. Not someone who will be proven to have lied just to score points during a 2 hour debate that cannot ever be backed up with facts. I liked her until then, and that is when she she lost me.
Now I am a Santorum man, and I pray his work in Iowa pays off, and pays off big. If not then it looks like we will all have to chose between Romney and Gingrich.
If it does come down to Newt and Willard, then I will be supporting Gingrich. If Willard wins the nomination, then this is one evangelical Christian who vote next November.
Thought you might enjoy this one ping!
She’s walked the walk.
But when push comes to shove, a lot of “conservatives” who post gibberish on the internet want to back the biggest blowhard “wannabee conservative” they can find who, despite a lifetime record of supporting only big business and big capital and wavering on key conservative issues, says “Reagan” enough inspire them to post said gibberish.
A lot of “conservatives” we read on the internet are conservatives in image only (CIIO), so they undoubtedly will not click through and read an article that gives a factual summary of a candidates record.
IMHO, perhaps America needs immorality/cronyism/socialism/communism/islamic appeasement/statism to really start hurting people, even more than it is, for enough people to get angry enough to vote for a REAL conservative (one whose actions match conservative principles).
Hey! I can hear you ya know!
:-)
It takes more than flowery debate speech to get my vote. I completely understand.
LOL! Thanks for the Morrie link.
It was a poke at your typo “toops” hehehe...
Oh...I see that now. And of course you might make me cry like Gingrich. Stop it, Clint. LOL!
Thanks for the ping. Bachmann and Santorum are the last hope for conservatives in the race and I hope enough people see that over the coming weeks to derail Myth from farther to his right.
Meaning, EVERYONE is to Myth’s right. Except for Zero. Maybe.
If she makes it to the Pa. primary, she’ll have my vote.
Yes, sir. Everyone is to the right of Myth. Gingrich only by a couple of nose hairs.
Yes, ma'am. Same here for Texas.
Just noticed.....
LOL!
Good stuff. I hope she has her chance. I’d vote for her in a heartbeat. :)
