Republican presidential candidate Rep. Michele Bachmann said Thursday that she is the 'hombre-ette' to represent voters in Washington.

Mrs Bachmann cast herself as 'one little fighter' when she appeared before supporters in Columbia, South Carolina.

'We need one strong hombre or hombre-ette, and I'm the hombre-ette to go and stand for you in Washington D.C.,' Mrs Bachmann said.

Unless she was speaking to La Raza, I’m OK with it.

She also celebrates Elvis’s birthday on the anniversary of his Death. Yesterday she said we need to fear the rise of the Soviet Union which was disolved in 1991. She is beginning to look pretty ditzy.

Beautiful woman, but she just has intense eyes that sometimes photograph oddly. That second pic in the story is reminiscent of the famous Theresa Hines Kerry rum-soaked raisins photo.

Bachman is right on this one. The Soviet Union never died. Its been reorganized with a new name and an improved markteting campaign.

True enough. Its not the direct threat from Russia we need to be concerned about. As always its the threats by proxy.

Only this time we have China in the mix.

What an odd choice of words. Who talks like that? She seems to be trying just a bit TOO hard and it's beginning to seem unnatural and convoluted.

Compare and contrast with the sound bites from both Perry (and Palin).

Now, everyone who opens the mouth is going to flub up. It just seems that Michelle is exhibiting a troubling pattern. And continuing that is going to sink her. Is it fair? Probably not - but it is what it is.

Most of what was once the Soviet Union are now independent Republics with Russia being the big elephant in the room. Several of those Republics like the Balkan States, Georgia and few others have moved politically closer to Europe and away from Russia akthough they still rely on Russia for Oil and Gas. Instead of worrying about the “Soviet Union” she should be advising people to have their kids learn to speak “Mandarin”.

Palin’s strategery is working. She cajoled Perry into a race he did not want to be a foil that Bachman did not want. They are both faltering. This leaves a hugh and series gap in the middle of the race for the true ididerod champion to drive through.

Floundered his way into first place? LOL

Michelle needs to stop and re-consider employment of Rollins. These soundbites are not helping her.

All Michelle does is talk....about what a good "fighter" she is.
I think T-Paw had her figured out, down to a T.

Thanks to the left wing propaganda machine, Sarah is the most vetted woman in this country.

In my opinion, they have slit their own throat in an attempt to discredit her and she has smiled as she walked their gauntlet line.

She is the ONLY one, in the race, who will turn our Republic back to sanity.

Because she can't claim any 'ACCOMPLISHMENTS'!

Compare MB to SP in terms of "FIGHTING" and "ACCOMPLISHMENTS", and then you have to scratch your head and say 'what is she doing running for President'?
