Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) said Friday that it's her sense that Republican voters are "very satisfied" with the field of presidential candidates.
Following Monday's debate in New Hampshire, Bachmann said voters were happier with their options.
"I think people, especially after the debate on Monday night, were very satisfied with what they saw with the candidates," she said on Fox News.
[...]
She passed, though, both at the debate and on Fox, at leveling tough criticism at former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney's (R) state healthcare law.
[...]
Rather, Bachmann suggested she's more likely to train her sights on President Obama than other Republicans.
"I think that's what you saw on Monday night and I think that's what you'll be seeing going forward," she said.

I just reported what she said and nothing else. If you don’t like it, take it up with her.

To me, taken as face-value stated, there is an implied statement she’s making “Republican voters don’t need anyone else [Sarah] to get in. We have enough choice with the existing list.”
To: jpsb
“Well, dud, what did anyone expect her to say?”
No kidding. Her mission, like that of every other candidate, is to win the nomination. What is she supposed to say?

She doesn’t need FR to do that. She will do it to herself.

Ms. Bachman, the cool aid you're drinking must be spiked.
To: Al B.
She’s taking a more nuanced approach, I think, so as not to give the media fodder for saying she’s against her own party.
And she’s NOT a stalking horse for Romney, that idea is a pantload.

They slammed Cain, and I like Cain. Now, I’m warming up to Bachmann, and they slam her too.
Makes a guy feel pretty annoyed at times.

Is this a trick question?
How about those who have voted Republican in the past, thinking Republicans were Conservatives?

The real Bachmann is a say or do anything politician who only coopted the Tea Party movement on the orders of Karl Rove who plucked her from the backbenches of the Minnesota state legislature and funded her campaign for the House in 06 and personally campaigned for her.
She supports ethanol subsidies and has recieved over 250k in farm subsidies through a family trust for a farm she owns with her family.
Michele Bachmann wrote several letters to Bush adm in 2007 advocating a presidential pardon for Frank Vennes who was a large donor to her , Norm Coleman and Tim Pawlenty. Vennes pleaded guilty and no contest to federal charges of money laundering, cocaine and firearms trafficking in 1987.
Bachmann , who used to be a liberal , organized for Jimmy Carter in 76. Now she has Ed "walking around money" Rollins managing her campaign.

Republican voters may be satisfied. Conservative Americans are not.
To: PSYCHO-FREEP
Imagine the whine when people end up with Romney. Conservatives out to take down conservative candidates is a RINO dream.

I’m somewhat satisfied with a very few.
RINOmney isn’t one of them.
Newt isn’t one of them.
Sarah,Michelle, and Herman Cain are.
To: Al B.
Bachmann, Santorum, Cain --- and maybe Palin, Perry, and Bolton. I've seen worse line ups. As long as we can steer clear of Romney, Giuliani, Graham, and the like, it will be a big improvement over Obama and the Establishment GOP.
