Indeed, the obvious strategy is for Democrats and liberal GOP strategists to praise Bachmann to the hilt NOW, and pretend that they fear her, so maybe Sarah will think that there is already a good, strong candidate in the race, so there is little point to her candidacy.
I think that Sarah has decided to run, but I predict that Michele’s candidacy will collapse faster than Donald Trump’s, when she becomes expendable. Michele does not express herself half as well as Sarah, is often careless in expressing herself and has never been under intense national fire. She will NOTTT be the nominee; in fact, she will be paving the way for a Milt Romney coronation, unless she takes a dive quickly. Maybe her quest is really a VP slot. I like Michele, but when I hear her speak, I like what she says but she is not in the Presidential league. Bob
Right on!
