I would suggest a much closer look at Bachman. You will find her "closet is full" so to speak, if you look. Frankly, I'm not impressed with her in the least, primarily because of a lack of specificity, aside from certain things in her past. She, much like Rubio, Brown and most of the others emerging now are saying the things a lot of people want to hear, but are very short on specifics. It takes a lot more to get my attention than being mildly attractive and being able to talk louder than anyone else in the room. Deeds speak louder than words.....
She is a tax attorney for the fair tax with independents liking her. So she is in poli talk; light years ahead of Palin.
