He had to be pressed to say anything bad about Bachmann. However saying her record was NON EXISTENT was quite accurate
MB MIGHT have had a chance if only 2 things happened..First that Palin would not run, and secondly that she had not attacked Palin.
So if by some reason (GOD FORBID) Sarah does not run, Bachmann has already committed political suicide by attacking Palin.
MB does not have the character/judgment to be President, she proved that when she Okay-ed Rollins for the Palin attacks...not only that but her own comments ...such as...Refusing to answer Christian Post interviewer...If you do not run, could you support a Palin run for President? She would not answer
also comments like...Sarah Palin has nothing to do with me etc etc
Just think of the lost opportunity MB put on herself if Gov Palin does not run, she has totally lost a good portion of Palin supporters, and she only has herself to blame.
I am just glad that the truth about MB character has come out early. I have 210% written her off
As far as Bachmann not having done much in congress, she was first elected in 2006. The GOP didn't take over congress until 2011. How much, realistically, could she accomplish with the Dems controlling congress? Besides, accomplishing things in DC usually means bad things for the country. I do know how she's voted on major issues and that's what is important to me.
Of course Bachmann is going to get hammered on the lack of 'executive experience'. That's fair. But for Pawlenty to be doing it now just shows what a weak candidate he is. He's the one with 'executive experience' and can't get above 6% in the polls and is well behind Bachmann in Iowa. If 'executive experience' was so important to voters wouldn't he be cleaning her clock in Iowa? Especially when he's spent so much time there in the last two months?
