Bachmann has made it quite clear that she is different from "Newt Romney" as she refered to both of them in the last debate. Bachmann called Romney the "frugal socialist" and added that label to Newt after that.

Rep. Michelle Bachmann, R-Minn., dismissed Republican frontrunners Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich as "great pretenders" to the conservative movement, calling both candidates "frugal socialists" who can't match her conviction as a conservative.

Gingrich, Bachmann said, "is the same as Mitt Romney." She explained, "You'd think these guys had been the standard bearer for the conservative movement and the Republican Party, but they're great pretenders -- they're frugal socialists," Bachmann said. "People want something that's very bold and very different, they won't get it in either Mitt Romney or Newt Gingrich."

The idea that Bachmann is supporting Romney is laughable and patently false.

Bachman did an excellent job last night, and deserves a second look. My guess is Newt supporters are afraid she might get that look, and so they are attacking her with this “working for Romney” stuff. Apparently now, anything you do to help YOUR candidate beat Newt is just “Helping Romney”.
