Bachmann is clearly running to capture the evangelical space. That has to worry Pawlenty.

Bachmann ‘speaks our code’

So does Ed Rollins apparently.

Haley Barbour is a rather imperfect vehicle for the “message” about perfection in GOP candidates.

We should just do ourselves a favor when we take the reins of the gop and purge haley... send him to howie dean's camp.

“I am here to support Michele Bachmann,” said Phil Dacosta, a 42-year-old Southern Baptist from Atlanta. “I don’t care about anyone else.”

Brilliant guy. My only decision is going to be who to support if Palin announces. Right now Michele has 100 percent of my support. Palin would be number one if she announces. I have no issues with Bachmann at all.

Barbour, Cantor, McCain and someone else took down a web site the night of the 2010 election....about what the Repubs should do next. Progressives all.

They will ultimately be the reason for the destruction of this once great republic.

Haley Barbour does not impress me one bit. Glad he decided not to get in.

[chickadee]

I am already sick of the discussion about who the GOP candidate should be. As of right now, I don’t have a favorite among those who have announced.

I do have some questions/thoughts though:

1) What are these awful things that Sarah Palin is supposed to have done during the ‘08 campaign? I keep hearing talk show hosts reference her baggage from 2008 and I can’t think what it might be.

2) I, for one, have voted for my last lesser-of-two-evils candidate. The beltway GOP can either let the grass roots have the candidate of their choice in 2012, or they can do without my vote. I am sick of the McCains, Doles and Romneys.

3) One other comment I’d like to make. The next time that someone asks if there is “room” for Michele Bachmann if Sarah Palin announces, I would like someone from the GOP stand up and say - women comprise more than half the population, so why do men seem to think that only one woman at a time can run for the GOP presidential nomination?

Not true at all, the fall will be the big picture RINOs....you can support those types, but I will not in a million years. You and I both must stand before God and will be asked questions about keeping our principles. I want to ensure that there is no problem with my principles.....I hope you do the same.

[Bigtigermike]

So what happens when these people find out that Bachmann new campaign manager Ed Rollins has been trashing Sarah for a while?

[gov_bean_ counter]

I’ll be in good shape as I am sure you will be too.

Dacosta, wearing a blue Huck PAC T-shirt,

This guy is a jerk. Huckabee is a snakeoil salesman. He wouldn't know a real Christian if he tripped over her.

Well that settles it. Somebody needs to DO something about this.

[napscoordinator]

Thanks....It would be cool to have a FREEPER Friend area up there.

She speaks in tongues, tailored to pull the wool over the rubes’ eyes, and she just hired the serpent master RINO insider scumsucker Rollins to knead and mold the final touches on her flimflam snake oil roadshow.

This article is a direct assault on the intellectual abilities and mental faculties of evangelicals... it’s quite an interesting article for me to read, because I honestly don’t know enough (southern, western) Evangelicals to see how they themselves see the writings here, as the intended audience, of the motives of the author, and the motives of Bachmann...

[ejdrapes]

I’m assuming they’re concerned about issues, not what some campaign aid said about a potential rival candidate.

[truthfreedom]

2 high level female tea party candidates. If there was a RINO female, there wouldn’t be an apparent conflict, but Palin and Bachmann really go after the same basic supporters. It’s like if Ron and Rand Paul both ran.

In the country, Palin and Bachmann are the top 2 conservative women. They are pretty similar in a lot of ways.

[JerseyHighlander]

I better point out that Bachmann has led a life of good deeds, I’m just not sure how getting paid national strategy consultants like Rollins, and unpaid or contract state level consultants like Dacosta is going to jive, and this adds a very specific religious tint to the old song,

we’ve seen it so many times,

Play the good old-timey conservative on the campaign trail, get to DC and surround and consort oneself with the likes of Rollins and his morass of eels.
