PORTSMOUTH, N.H. -- Tennessee Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn will consider running for president in 2016 -- if she sees an opportunity to do so, an aide to the 7th District Republican told RealClearPolitics. Blackburn is scheduled to be one of the speakers at a New Hampshire Republican rally this weekend but was not previously known to be mulling a White House bid.
"If there's a door to kick down, she's willing to kick it down," the aide, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said. "These are the kinds of events you go to -- test the waters, and see what the reaction is."

Why would anyone in their right mind want to be President of the U.S.?.....unless they’re just looking for the perks - a la Zer0.

Given that, all of us KNOW that she’s much better than the Hillabeast or Fauxahantas. She’s gotta be, since those first two wenches have the combined IQ of a cumquat.

She's a good one. And I think it would be good for the GOP to field more women in the primaries.

Marsha, please do us a favor and run for the Senate.
Tennessee has 2 complete idiots that need to be removed.

She’s great. If you like Michele Bachmann you’ll like her. The two are very close.
To: BarnacleCenturion
Hate to see her speaking in Soviet Red Hampshire...she is a great conservative (I met her in East Tennessee), and she won’t receive the best of welcomes here in blue country. I hope that doesn’t discourage her.

I would be very pleased with a Cruz/Blackburn ticket in 2016.

They are very similar in their depth and breadth of knowledge, and both are bulldogs. Cruz/Blackburn sounds delicious!
