The media does not encourage me to follow what Bachmann is doing and support her. Her words out of her very own mouth do.
All those that have conspiracy theories on the media being kind to Bachmann because they are shaking in their boots over Palin are ridiculous; as well as they must have missed all of the hit pieces on Bachmann some even citing the competition.
The media is eating it up every time they call Bachmann a RINO as divided the media will conquer. The only people directly causing any ‘fracture of unity’ as you say, are the childish people that think that Bachmann is ‘stealing’ Palin’s podium; they even go as far as to say SARAH was there first.I understand them not posting any Bachmann favorable articles but they go out of their way to call Bachmann a RINO and I think they warped from DU or something.Someone needs to tell them that if they encourage Bachmann’s tea party responses and stances they are NOT betraying their self made Palin goddess.Their actions turn people off from Palin.
And the media is giving her all kinds of platforms in order to sway people like you.
You just don't get how they work. They'll deny her her platform when the time is right.
She says a lot of good things but when she can be used for their agenda (like now) they will definitely use her.
