University of Virginia political guru Larry Sabato thinks that former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney's potential BFF in the race for the GOP presidential nomination could be no other than Rep. Michele Bachmann, the hard-charging conservative from Minnesota. The reasoning is that Mrs. Bachmann's possible entrance into the race could throw a serious roadblock on former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty's perceived path to victory, which starts with a win or — at the very least — a strong showing in Iowa. Mrs. Bachmann "could torpedo Pawlenty's chances," Mr. Sabato writes in his latest rundown of the GOP field. "Bachmann has a good shot to connect with the born-again Christians who make up roughly three of every five GOP caucus goers in calendar-leading Iowa and could effectively knock out Pawlenty if she defeats him in Iowa. "In that, Bachmann might end up being Romney's best friend," he said, alluding to the fact that Mr. Pawlenty is the perceived No. 2 in the field. "After all, winning Iowa is not a required stop on the way to the Republican nomination.

BFF?!
Romney-Bachmann 2012? Please, an entire package of clothespins.
Yes.
best friend forever (not best f’ing friend)
Will not support.
(RINO GOP-backstabber and poser, Ms. Bachmann):
" Mission accomplished, Mitt.
Rollins whacked (Gov.) Palin (who helped little old hypocrite me) for you
and Pawlenty is next. For you. For you.
Oh, how I love you, Mitt - your support of Global Warming
and your love of ethanol supports AND death panels.
Now, if you won’t take me to Kolob,
how about you just ignore me like Kerry Healy.
And then abuse me like Seamus.
And then just send the democrats after me like the Maucks."
the long knives are going to have to be a whole hell of a lot sharper than that.
hiring that goofy bastidge Ed Rollins pretty much torpedoed her own chances in my book
Huntsman should be running as a Democrat. He’s way to the left of practically everyone, a hippie retard who flunked out of school. Just the sort of guy Obama would pick to be his Ambassador to China.
MB can’t possibly think Mittens will pick her as VP choice . The old bum Rollins may have convinced her , if she believes it she is a fool.
' Not just her words, her actual record.
I just don’t see how she has a chance to win. I am going to support Pawlenty as I see him as the only one who can beat Romney and also Obama.
BFF may stand for:
Backup-file Format, a data archive format used by IBM AIX
Bangladesh Football Federation, the governing body of football in Bangladesh
Boston Film Festival, an annual film festival in Boston
and lots of really nasty stuff that start with Butt.
BFF means “Big Friendly Fathead”.
Actually he is pretty damn good at strategy and campaigns. His problem is he can not keep his damn mouth shut. I would never associate my campaign (if I were a politician) with Rollins for that reason. I would call him on the phone and ask for advice and analysis. He would never be an official part of my organization.
Right! Bachman is the best and shouldn’t even consider a VP slot. She’s presidential. Palin is a cheerleader. Bachman is articulate where Palin is not and can stand up for herself without looking like an idiot at times.
Once they’ve purged the RINOS, Palin would be best as cheerleader for the RNC
Oh you are going to get so flamed. You can’t say things like that about St. Sarah on this site. I am moving as far away as possible so as not to get singed :).
