Michele Bachmann probably won’t win for a number of reasons. The deck was stacked for her to lose. Some people promoting Rick Perry. The race is a bit messy. No matter what she did she was getting attacked. So I don’t know how thing will shake out, but ofr one reason or another she floundered. The media is dead set against her so that was a obstacle. yet, there is still a chance. But, I am more curious, how everything shakes out. Since I am not sold on most of the field then I can’t say this is going great. Herman Cain is doing the opposite of Bachmann. Still going nowhere. So the media is making us think and the polling. So it is what it is. Meaning, If Cain gets out and Bachmann is out and Palin is not in. I really don’t have a horse in the race to pull for.

You've stumbled upon the GOP's game plan. If they can marginalize the Tea Party candidates, or convince them not to run, their man sits in the Whitehouse; Obama has defeated himself. He will not win in 2012. The GOP prefers to have one of their own replace him. And if they can remove our horses from the race, they figure we'll get our collective "ass in line" and support their man. Many here on FR would do just that ... and chastise those who resist doing so. Mark my words, there will be a whole lot of "wasting your vote" and "handing a vote to Obama" tripe thrown around on this forum in the election to come.
