Michele Bachmann had high hopes going into this Presidential campaign. She saw herself as the second coming of Sarah Palin. A new and improved version of Sarah Palin. Unfortunately, Bachmann is not a new Sarah Palin nor an improved Sarah Palin.
Michele Bachmann is in last place in most of the polling.
Every recent poll put Bachmann in last place heading into the caucuses, a far cry from her summer win in a state GOP straw poll. But top campaign advisers vowed she would prove the recent surveys wrong by activating a support network built through her visits to small towns and churches in every corner of Iowa...

...Bachmann vows to stay in the campaign, but that is not realistic and the fact is she will likely be the first to hold a press conference to announce the end of her campaign.
At that press conference Bachmann will say some nice things about Mitt Romney, because Bachmann has high hopes of being his Vice-Presidential nominee.
Yes, that Sarah Palin thing again. The good news (and for us Democrats the bad news) is that Mitt Romney is much too smart to name Bachmann as his nominee....

Perhaps a bit, but 2007-2011 seems to belay your argument, don’t you think? Was there anything they wouldn’t do or say to puff up Barry or attack Sarah? Example A: Tucson. Example B: 24,000 e-mails and “crowdsourcing” them.
Now, her approval or endorsement is null and void (for me). I know many of you hinge on every word or tweet she sends. Not me. If I think it SHOULD be Bachmann's time, I'll gladly write her in on the PA ballot. I will NOT EVER vote for Mittens. Not in the Primary and NOT in the General. The GOP can shove Mittens right up their collective asses! No more. No more money. No more votes! Period.
Didn't they have a dust up a couple of months ago when she said something catty about him and he shot back she had been calling him regularly for advice?
It used to be that the smug know-it-all who everyone figured out was full of crap would end up sitting by himself at the end of the bar. In the internet age he ends up blogging for The Examiner.
I don’t think that Bachmann has an interest in the VP slot. I believe that she is the head of the Tea Party Caucus in the House. She should campaign for House members and shore up Tea Party strength to battle Obama or Mitt, or if we can manage a conservative Whitehouse, she will be in a great position to push forward her agenda.
Sleeper cells?
heh yea. Must be crocodile tears.
Hey FrankR, I guess you then find Obambi’s mulatto strains soothing and easy to listen to???????????????????????? Her voice? Gee, you need to chill my friend.
Has she ever had a bill signed into law?
“She saw herself as the second coming of Sarah Palin”
There never was a ‘first’ coming of SP.
Really? So McCain picked Liebermann as his running mate in 2008? My memory must be out of whack...
Another pissant comment, newbie.
.
I think at the very least, we need to wait to see tonight’s results. Heck when did polls become important all of a sudden? I am thrilled that Santorum seems to be doing well, but again not one caucus vote given yet.
2008 Redux... Not Thank You
VP ain’t chit. Especially if your party loses.
and I’m referring to the current election cycle.
What has she done for me lately? The answer is NOTHING!
If not by the pressures then by falling off his high chair reaching across the aisle to make friends.
Why is that a pissant comment? Palin endorsed McCain for Senate. She’s proven that she’s “political” and will take the expedient route that politicians often do.
And whats with the “newbie” crack? Do you measure peoples opinions by how long they’ve been registered? How... mature.
Doesn't sound very conservative to me.
Neither does spending millions of other people's money in a mindless, futile pursuit of power. Boy Perry should set the conservative example and drop out.
