I supported Michelle Bachman for congress. She was doing a great job there, and deserved to be re-elected.

I never thought she had a chance at running for the White House, and I’m afraid she has proven me right.

Meantime, she has been thoroughly neglecting the job she was elected for. She could have organized the Tea Party freshman and spoken out against Boner’s constant cave-ins to Obama, which have now cost us another trillion dollars. Instead, she spent that time fund-raising in a vain pursuit of the White House.

And she’s pretty well wrecked any future chances of running again, when she has earned it. But if she would only go back to doing a good job in congress, it would certainly help.

It would be a huge gain to have a real conservative like Bachmann or Santorum elected President; the Republican party would benefit tremendously. So the run is well worth Michele's effort.

She did not have the clout in Congress to arm twist dozens of freshman. The leadership has much more power than she does; she's just the beginning any anything signifcantly changing in the halls of Congress. Most of the supposed "Tea Party" freshman were bought off with offers of "careers" so they can "get things done" "down the road".

This year in Congress was a complete waste because Obama has veto power and the Dems have the Senate.

Nothing could be passed that was a good conservative bill.

All the House could do is block things by not passing them.

Unless a bill hinged on a few votes, Michele's (and any other real conservative's) vote and limited arm-twisting power (not being a very senior member) had no way to bear much fruit this year.

A few times when it was a big deal she came back and voted.

She's the only candidate who has a real small business perspective. She would be the first such President in a VERY long time.

If she or Santorum is elected, it will be the first Christian in office that will give heathens a run for their money in a long time.

Without America ever taking the first step on the long road back to morality, we're financially doomed no matter what happens. Brains with no morals is just efficient evil.

2012 is shaping up to be the year of European disaster, so I guess we have to somehow get through that first.

IMHO...
