“her chances of being on the ticket will continue to grow”
Bachmann’s only chance of being on a ticket is if Mitt Romney is at the head of it. And that is a prospect that most conservatives and virtually all freepers find appalling.
2 little thingies of interest:
bachmann continues to state thet she RAISED 23 children.
Bachmann and her husband also provided foster care for 23 other children, all teenage girls. The Bachmanns were licensed from 1992 to 2000 to handle up to three foster children at a time; the last child arrived in 1998. The Bachmanns began by providing short-term care for girls with eating disorders who were patients in a program at the University of Minnesota. The Bachmann home was legally defined as a treatment home, with a daily reimbursement rate per child from the state. Some girls stayed a few months, others more than a year
bachmann has repeatedly stated that she received NO money from her “father-in-law’s” farm.
Bachmann also has an ownership stake in a family farm located in Waumandee, Wisconsin. Since the death of her father-in-law in 2009, the farm and its buildings have been rented out to a neighboring farmer who maintains a dairy herd on the farm. Although Bachmann said in June 2011 that “my husband and I have never gotten a penny of money from the farm”, personal financial disclosure reports showed that the farm produced income for Bachmann of at least $32,500 and as much as $105,000 from 2006 through 2009. From 1995 through 2010, the farm got about $260,000 in federal crop and disaster subsidies.

It seems to me that what michele bachmann has done is learn to play the system...very well...while saying the complete opposite.
