Bachmann prepping to swing at Perry

Last-ditch effort for relevance in a two-man race. I like Bachmann, but Romney and Bachmann are both getting off their game plan by focusing on Perry instead of Obama. It’s a mistake that will work in Perry’s favor.
Rick Perry killed off Bachman’s Momentum the same way Sarah Palin will kill off Rick Perry’s if she jumps into the ring.
It would also help if she actually accomplished something before running for president.
I hate to say it, because I liked Palin, but she’s not going to kill anybody’s momentum if she steps in. Her fans have been dwindling because, like Obama, she has made this all about her...but without the Obama propaganda machine.
In any case, I’d be really surprised if she runs and I have thought - practically since she quit as governor - that she really doesn’t want to run but wants to be a pundit. Which is fine, if that’s what she wants to do...and in that case she should release her “delegates” to somebody else.
Personally, I think Romney is odious and detestable and he’s the only one of the major candidates I simply wouldn’t work for or vote for.
I don’t like Perry a lot (TV preacher hair and manner) but I’d vote for him. If push came to shove, I’d work for him (phone calls, poll watcher, etc.).
On the list right now, there’s nobody who really grabs me. I think Bachmann is great, but the powers that be have obviously decided that she’s not going to be the candidate and they won’t support her. I’d love to work for her, but it’s not going to happen.
Let me fix that for you.

We’re having a special guest at Monday’s debate. Those who correctly guess who it is by tomorrow at 6PM CT receive a bumper sticker! Make your guess below.
I don't have a clue. This was posted on another thread pinged to me.
For someone who was muted, she managed to correct Romney and Perry by pointing out they can't reverse Obamacare on their own because it's a federal law. And, she was the ONLY one there to point out that we need to be sure we're not supporting terrorists when we jump into other nations' conflicts.
It wasn’t until 14 minutes into the debate that Mrs. Bachmann got to speak.
As if that was her fault.
It would definitely be a game changer if Palin jumped in, but she’s not getting in.
Sarah Palin of course!
Who is “we,” I wonder? Perry or the debaters? Might be Palin.
Or maybe Gov. Perry’s mother, Amelia!
She’ll get questions this time.
CNN would like her to go after Gov. Perry.
It will be interesting to see how she initiates it.
Amelia wouldn’t show up alone, and he said “guest” singular. But that would be nice to see her there.
Well, you’re no fun.
So, maybe Gov. Rick Scott (big Perry fan)?
Exactly, Venturer.
LOL.
Dubya —— - no
Rove —— - - no
Hutchison — NO
Gore ——— no
Benjamin Netanyahu — maybe!
Netanyahu! Netanyahu!!
She is on the intelligence committee and she is on the front line fighting Obama and the rats.She is a tax attorney that wants to abolish the IRS and EPA.She took great courage back when it wasn’t as cool as it is now to head the tea party caucus.She is very, very intelligent and is briefed on foreign affairs .Bachmann is very accomplished why would you say such a thing?She has the economy,jobs,energy and foreign policy down pact what is it you don’t like about her?Her chances of being the front runner right now are as good as they will get (about the same if not more than Palin’s.) Maybe because women conservatives are hated with a passion.But like Newt she adds a lot to the debate.While Newt calls the MSM to the carpet very well.Palin is a good advocate keeping the GOP from not straying. Bachmann as head of the tea party caucus represents us well.
