Michele Bachmann: People want to see me 'mud-wrestling' with Sarah Palin
Politico ^ | June 29, 2011 | JAMES HOHMANN

Posted on 06/29/2011 10:41:50 AM PDT by Second Amendment First

CHARLESTON, S.C.—Michele Bachmann downplayed tensions with Sarah Palin here Wednesday morning.

“They want to see two girls come together and have a mud wrestling fight,” the Minnesota congresswoman said. “And I’m not going to give it to ‘em.”

The first question at a morning rally came from a woman who wanted to know if media reports of divisions between the two tea party darlings are true.

She said she has “great respect” for Palin.

“This race is wide open,” Bachmann told the crowd of more than 200. “We can accommodate all the candidates who want to come in. We’re going to stick together, and we’re going to see this thing through.”

Jell-O would be good enough.

Jell-O gets my vote. It would drive those with Bachmann derangement syndrome on this board over the edge.

Partial quote from Waterloo...

Outside a sun-splashed historic mansion in Waterloo, Bachmann told a crowd of more than 100 family members, friends, supporters and others that she is waging her campaign “not for vanity,

Now this. I think she has some self perception issues.

She needs to shut up. Every time she opens her mouth she screws up.

crowd of more than 200

Mrs. Palin would draw ten times that if she announced she was going outside her house to water and weed the garden.

Of course, 200 of that number would be press waiting to report that she cut back the roses in a savage and sadistic manner.

I used to think “Man, I wish we had some serious candidates.” Then I realized the serious candidates would never poll out of single digits. There’s a reason that arguably the greatest President of the last 100 years was a story telling actor. Thirty years later it’s who’s the most likable reality TV character.

Mud Wrestling would be a leftist dream since it would only denigrate them. Sarah Palin has already had a porn movie done about her. The motives of the producers were to humiliate and not honour her. These two are good looking which generally is a plus but the left can twist that around very quickly.

Bachmann seems to be working on being our Biden.

Not good, at all. All was needed is ‘the race is wide open’ What’s this mud wrestling and sticking together all about - sounds sophomoric.

One thing you will discover about Michele Bachmann (if you haven't already) is that she is far more gaffe-prone than Sarah Palin ... rumors of a Bachmann-Palin feud start[ed by] Ed Rollins.


That's the fact, Jack!

Looks like Bachmann is playing defense for Sarah. Perhaps she is just warming Sarah’s seat in this “fight to the death”.

Just my humble opinion.
