For those who may have missed it, Bachmann answered the questions posed by Chris Wallace today on "Fox News Sunday" without any spin or ambiguity. This presents a stark contrast with Romney who's opportunistically all over the map with his reversals and changing ideological positions. Like Kerry, he supported something before he was against it. RomneyCare anyone?

Good for Michelle! I see she is within one point of Romney in Iowa. She and Cain may be our best bet yet.
My brother is in from Texas and he and my sister in law, both conservatives, do not like Perry at all. I am beginning to believe Michelle may be the best for our nominee, but we all must keep praying.
Governor goodhair is a rino. He needs to stfu.

I liking her more and more...
I’ll be voting for Sarah Palin, Liberty, our Constitution and American Exceptionalism.
i’m trying to like her more. honestly. and Bachmann is a world better than Romney or Huntsman!!!
...but i still like Cain better, of current candidates.
i GREATLY praise and admire Bachmann’s bold stand here on the debt ceiling:

“Rep. Michele Bachmann said “scare tactics” are being used by those warning of an economic calamity unless Congress raises the government’s borrowing limit ... . “
...but seriously, this one is simply bizarre:

“... And my husband and I have never gotten a penny of money from the farm,” Bachmann said.
But her financial disclosures in 2009 and 2010 show her getting between $15,000 and $50,000 from the Bachmann Family Farm LP.
(i understand an honest mistake. but she “vehemently denied” it. and, she spent five years as a federal tax litigation attorney. ...i simply don’t understand this. i hope it gets explained.)
and that was the ONLY thing i had to criticize. her views on earmarks, gay marriage, etc., i strongly support her on.
I love Bachmann, and I believe Palin will endorse her.
Ah, yes voting for someone who is not yet a declared candidate. Reminds me of a classic Gershwin song: "I've got a crush on you...sweetie pie..."
That farm belongs to her in-laws. She never personally benefited from any government farm subsidy, which boiled down to about $6,000 a year for her in-laws.
She’s running, you’ll see.
She may have misspoken because she was asked about subsides and they may not have had farm income when the farm took them under her father-in-law's ownership.
There was an article in the Washington Times (June 19th by Kerry Picket) that described how Perry was supporting a Texas Dream Act and was very soft on illegal immigration. To me, that guy’s just another snake oil salesman who’s pretending to be a Reagan conservative. I like Cain but he’s too politically inexperienced - a conservative Obama in that sense.
