Tea Party 2012: Will Michele Bachmann Steal Sarah Palin's Thunder?
National Journal ^ | 3/5/11 | Lyndsey Boerma

Posted on 03/05/2011 11:46:22 AM PST by pissant

It's looking increasingly likely that tea party maven and Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., will dive into the 2012 presidential waters.

Among the evidence is a packed schedule for this weekend, including two suspiciously stump-like stops in Florida on Friday and a Sunday appearance on NBC’s Meet the Press, where she’ll be asked about how “the campaign against President Obama’s reelection should be framed,” according to network previews.

Most notable is Bachmann's involvement in the conservative Club for Growth’s annual winter meeting on Friday, where her name shared a guest list with those of Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour and former Govs. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota and Mitt Romney of Massachusetts—all rumored White House contenders.

Hey, nothing gets by FR moderators. Admin Moderator even stops by the Texas State board from time to time (like this morning).

Now there are Freepers that think some of us on the Texas board are a little crazy, but that’s just jealousy. Don’t they know that there’s no such thing as ‘little’ in Texas? Heheh.

;^D

Are you saying Bachmann does not have experience?

they don’t let me post on the TEX board, just lurk.
I guess I better not go sightseeing in west Texas. Northern panhandle is better bet.

I’d be happy with either of them as president. They’re pretty much the same as far as conservative beliefs go.

How can anyone pushing Bachmann cause you to dislike her? That doesn’t make any sense. No one is forcing you to read these threads and Bachmann is not a threat to anyone, except liberals. Palin and Bachmann are conservatives and along with Herman Cain and a few others, would be good candidates for 2012. Palin is the only one that’s been vetted and has withstood, without apology, all that the media can throw at her.

First of all, I am astonished. I thought someone was forcing me to read these reads. Woo hoo, free at last.

Seriously, I did not say I disliked Bachman. I like her very much.

I simply pointed out that pissant has been so obnoxious to everyone who likes Palin ... his favorite among his many insults is ‘cultists.’ Anyway, pissant pushing Michele is a negative for her and people dislike him so much that they might transfer that to her, since he’s adopted her as a candidate (which I think is fake, by the way, he hasn’t withdrawn his head from Duncan Hunter’s butt in years)

Again, I like Michelle. She would be my 3rd or 4th favorite candidate and I understand she did a great job on Meet the Press today.

Try not to misunderstand. Bless your heart.

I think most people are smarter than that.
