What's with the hatred of Michele Bachmann at Free Republic?

Posted on 06/19/2011 1:04:04 PM PDT by EveningStar

What's with the hatred of Michele Bachmann at Free Republic lately?

I've seen some psychotic paranoid drivel about her secretly working for Mitt Romney, but apparently there's more to it than that.

Please help me out here, folks.

Can you tell me what I said there that is incorrect? I think it’s quite obvious the majority who knock Bachmann on this site (and places like HotAir) are Palin supporters.

The Bachmann supporters are getting panicky and it's showing. They kept telling us the MSM was going to destroy Palin, but look at the bus tour and email success.

Their stress levels are rising each day.

That in no way diminishes your sickening case of PDS.

Really? I think just the opposite. It's Palin supporters that are going after Bachmann on this site.

Yeah the emails blew up in the MSM's face, but what was so successful about her bus tour. The country is going to hell and we're supposed to applaud Palin for jerking the media's chain for a week? What did the bus tour accomplish exactly?

Neither is Palin. See “bridge to nowhere”, she was before it before she was against it.

Try again, huckleberry...

#PalinEmails Prove that Governor Palin Opposed the Bridge to Nowhere

Wow, dishonest as well.

You PDSers never cease to amaze.

Why feign ignorance, in between trolling against Palin, haven’t you read about Bachmann hiring Ed Rollins and revealing a campaign strategy of attacking Governor Palin, and staying away from Mitt criticism?
///
you nailed it.

i would ask the original poster,
After Jim Robinson made his recent big post about Romney,
who did all the Romney supporters here switch to?
(surely they wouldn’t switch to someone so opposite of moderate Romney?)

...and, if you search old posts, you will find almost universal praise for Bachmann here on FR, until she hired Rollins.
She hired him, knowing he had already attacked Palin repeatedly. He continued to do so after being hired.
Yet Bachmann didn’t fire him or even rebuke him.

(and, Rollins did NOT attack the Rhino front-runner, who was a declared candidate, and who would be the logical target of ANY true Tea Party leader like Bachmann.)

Many people here, had even donated money to Bachmann before.
and they were calling her campaign, to tell them they never would again. Those people certainly didn’t “hate” Bachmann.

Bachmann was my FIRST choice among declared candidates before.

None of us were attacking Bachmann. we were reacting to what we considered to be poor decisions by a true conservative “Tea Party” candidate.
...the executive decisions that a candidate makes, DO matter, in selecting a nominee...

I used to want to blame sunspots.. but now, I am suspect of genetically modified foods.

It could be subliminal suggestion too, spread thru social networking.

or it could be we have a plethora of PR folks for many sides passing thru the gut of FR and making it a bit upsetting occasionally. the comforting thought, in the end, they too shall all pass.

Romney support comes in many forms.

I definitely do not support Mitt Romney.

Well, I’m sickened by a “conservative” throwing half her supporters in the tea party under the bus over the birther issue, then turning around and hiring a RINO to run her campaign.

A sense of outrage coming from you is laughable.

This thread is a classic class of Irony. :)

Sorry. Palin can enter this race right now. She can compete and if she is meant to be she will win.

Conspiracies by the delusional are just that. There may be a stop Bachmann camp. I think it is centered right here.

Many Palinistas would trash Reagan these days if he were running now.
