I understand. These threads can be contentious.

Glibness aside, Bachmann doesn’t have the political capital to win a primary. Therefore it’s highly unlikely I’d get to vote for her anyway.

You do realize that using that term legitimates his other half?

Well I don’t know that we are not ready for a woman POTUS but we just don’t currently have one of the necessary stature to be President.

After 8 years of Barack Obama what’s left of Amerika is probably going to want to see a good looking white man as President again.

I am sorry Megan. I just get so upset when I see any Michele Bachmann bashing. I just think she is one of the best conservatives we have. The fact that she is leaving the House is a shame. I cannot understand how a wonderful woman who is incredibly conservative is bashed so much. She is the one who warned us about Obamacare and everybody laughed at her during the debates...she was 100 percent accurate.

[MeganC]

If it makes you feel any better I absolutely WOULD support her as the VP on a Palin-Bachmann ticket. As a matter of fact, she’d be among my top three choices: Bachmann, Cruz, Paul.

Yes! Me too.

[MeganC]

Thank you but I’m not easily offended. If I were I’d stay off the internet. Naps is doing just fine and I respect his/her defense of Bachmann and Bachmann should be proud to have such a fervent supporter!

“who was also Sen. Ted Kennedy’s chief counsel in the Chappaquiddick affair.”

Now there’s a big RED flag!!!

““Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said “

If she could lie then..she can lie better now.....

If Bill O’Reilly was a real conservative, he would use this article for his talking points.

[trisham]

You two are the best. :)

[exit82]

LOL!

Or testicular cancer.

[dforest]

She is right. Next time we need to try to stay away from 1sts.

[Gumdrop]

Michele gets into a lot of trouble - - - for telling the truth!

[RichInOC]

If Hillary and Liz Warren are the best we can do for female presidents, we’re well and truly boned. Fortunately, they aren’t.

She's right. Americans first have to learn how to select competent qualified candidates and ones that are willing to serve all the people rather than just the fraction that suppled election funding or votes. Caring about one's country and its citizens past, present and future is also an important consideration.

She makes some good points here and shows more insight than she's been given credit for.

The response in the mainstream media focused on purported insults to Blacks and women that aren't there in what she actually said, and on the word "guilt."

Take the word a little more broadly than her attackers have -- take it as including all the "new day" feeling Obama voters had -- and Bachmann wasn't actually wrong about Obama's appeal and Hillary's lack of appeal.
