Republican presidential candidate Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn, speaks to supporters and media during a campaign stop, Monday, Jan. 2, 2012, in West Des Moines, Iowa.
I like Michele, but she's done, at least with this election.

I like her, too. I was a Cain supporter and I still don’t know who I’m going to vote for..

There comes a point where you have to put the good of the country above your own personal ambition. Apparently, Michele is not there yet.
“Bachmann said after addressing an assembly of suburban high school students...”
Bachmann is showing the world that she knows how to run a masterful campaign by targeting the most vital voting group in America, high school students.
I still believe in Santa, but I never did believe in the Easter bunny.
I suspect that Bachmann believes in the Easter bunny and that she also thinks it’s a tax lawyer.
It might take Paul’s straight jacket just to get her off the stage. LOL
She makes me think of every mans ex-wife.
Nope. Can’t count out anyone till the results come in and they figure out what to do. Fox news said last night she has been organizing for months. Today they are saying that it could be wide open because of the format of the caucuses. Anything is possible. Bachmann was the only one to go all 99 counties. I do understand Rick Santorum also visited nearly all counties, but the media didn’t say that. I read it somewhere. But I head on Fox News them say only Bachmann hit every county. Anything can happen. It is all about how one organizes and stops defections.
I believe she seriously shot herself in the foot when she seemed to dedicate her campaign for a week or so to the vaccination program in Texas. It didn’t really hurt Perry, but she sure as hell ‘deep sixed’ her own campaign.
I want to hear more from Dr. Bachmann on how vaccines cause autism.
Bachman is one of the current GOP candidates I would actually be pleased to vote for in the general election.
America wants a RINO NOT a conservative..
So.. they will get and deserve one..
The surprise will be she will have the chutzpah to continue to accept peoples’ money and campaign in a hopeless cause
well, maybe no surpise there
I think she has peaked at being in Congress
Hoping she is right. First woman president? I’d be happy with that.
I think so, too. Wasn't for lack of trying, but it's just not a "go" this time around.
Sorry Michele but you are getting second place behind Rick Santorum. Perhaps you can be his VP. I would die if we had this combo for President. Our country would be in such good condition that we might even have to cancel taking taxes from anybody because we wouldn’t need them. My goodness if this happens I would be so excited!!!! Santorum/Bachmann 2012!!!! Oh man I feel good now! Come on Iowa!!!!! Prayers for the Santorum family and Bachmann family as they keep their humility and conservative moral values after their first and second place in Iowa tonight.
” I like Michele, but she’s done, at least with this election.” <<<
What am I suppose to think about the candidate who does conservative speak to perfection on so many of the issues, but when the bell rings and the contest engages at last, they advantage the Establishment?
It is mind bending, for me anyway, to appreciate Bachmann sniping when she is intellegent enough to know who it advantages. She never talks about her targets being far more conservative than Romney, or comes clean about the results of sniping benefiting him, but just shows up and snipes at each of his nearest threats, one after another, just as the Establishment and Romney Super PAC would hope for, and she does it for free. (Unless he actually does pay off her campaign debt eventually.)
Same with Santorum. He is as pure on conservative speak as the wind driven snow, but in the contest there he goes, he endorses Snarlin’ Arlen and turns his back on the conservative Pat Toomey. His conservative fiscal positions led him eight times (according to Perry) to spend out the budget, and help create the red line of debt as far as the eye can see.
These candidates have records of irritating all of us at one time or another, but who among them, while on the job, has consistently done the most, *consistently*, for conservatism and for conservatives? I think I know. They are both HELL on wheels when it comes to actual results.
I would like for the contest to get down to them, and SOON.
the surprise will come when her checks start bouncing
I’m beginning to become very annoyed at her shrill voice. Sounds too much like scolding... I just want her to shut up.
