Republican Congresswoman Michele Bachmann vowed again in her appearance on GMA this morning to repeal the “job-killer” known as “Obamacare.” Yet despite several valiant attempts by George Stephanopoulos to get Bachmann to say something, anything, critical about frontrunner Mitt Romney, she refused to get off message and ignored his question completely.
When Stephanopoulos asked whether Bachmann had any critique of “Romneycare” in Massachusetts, Bachmann instead repeated “Obamacare will steamroll over all the state laws” and suggested that what anyone else will do, or has done, is not relevant to her plans. .

Right on the money. Don’t play into the MSM hands.
She didn’t have to slam rommneycare, others did it for her. Besides, slamming his rino/democrat plan is only restating the obvious.
Bachmann is not a more serious or experienced candidate than Palin. She has less experience than Palin. Bachmann has no executive experience at all. She's never even run a town as an executive and she's going to run a country? Nor has she run a large campaign. And she picked a loser, Rollins, to work for her.
Palin did give up her Governship of Alaska.
Yup. The frivolous ethics complaints that Dems could file for free, cost Alaska $2million. Fighting them also cost man hours in searches for records. Palin was forced out. If she'd stayed critics would have attacked her for costing Alaska money.
Just more of you Palin fantics thin skin.
Insults aren't facts. And it won't silence the truth.
Newt wisely pointed out that there would need to be gains in the House and Senate in order to accomplish this.
exactly (on bachmann’s hypocrisy in letting Ed Rollins run his mouth while kissing up to Romney!)
Not quite. And he alienated the very voters that Bachmann needs. What genius!
When you hire dirty trickster who immediately starts attacking Sarah Palin don’t be surprised if you’ve made some enemies.
That doesn't mean your take is the right one. You ever hear the old adage 'you can't prove a negative'? That's what you're trying to do. You're putting words in her mouth based on you're own thoughts. You can't prove it, but you can sure believe it.
Me? I'll wait for something concrete before I buy into it.
What is she going to criticize Romney for? Saying that he would repeal Obamacare too. As much as many people want to believe the Old Media that Obamacare is a bigger Romneycare they are very wrong. Romney didn’t get the medical care plan as he envisioned it, but he still didn’t want to mandate people buying their own insurance. Romneycare is to Obamacare as Rap is to Music.
If it comes time for the used car salesman to pick a running mate,she’s hoping she’s it.

Romney would never pick a woman or a black man for VP
But then Romney is not going to get the GOP nomination
I see you are a good fit for the Bachmann campaign with your stupid name-calling against Palin supporters, jerk.
Amen....a pleasant change!
Michele is keeping it classy. And she was doing that because she was in unfriendly territory. Brave Lady.
Keep the heat on Obama.
Well of course not. Her focus on ‘attacking’ has been directed toward Gov Palin. I don’t care what Bachmann says or how she sounds, hiring a hit man and going after Palin and not distancing herself from those remarks (that I’ve seen) reveals more about Bachmann than all the things she “says”. Further, about 6 weeks ago when she was asked whether or not she was running for President, she made the comment that her and her husband were seeking a ‘higher power’s’ direction.
A congressman/woman would make a lousy president anyway. A legislator knows only one thing...how to make more laws.
Gee, WWPD?
Dirtboy is a good name for you.
As far as "name-calling against Palin supporters", I do no such thing. I insult Palin Worshipers. There is a difference.
Since Bachmann has said nothing of the sort, that is what will matter most to the voters. Rollins is still in charge of his own mouth and won't reflect much on Bachmann’s candidacy. Time will tell, but Bachmann gained volumes of support last night alone. (Being a true candidate has a tendency to do that.)
