Michele Bachmann is running (or so her insiders say) so don’t count your chickens. Michele will kill Palin in the debates. In fact, I can’t wait to see it. Michele is the adult that will take over the white House. Although Sarah will continue to assist on Fox News which is seriously very helpful.

I love Michele Bachmann.

But America doesn’t get it’s presidents from the House of Representatives.

The Presidency is an executive position and legislators tend to make poor executives unless they have some experience making hard decisions that they alone are responsible for. Members of the House are just one vote out of hundreds, and if you’re in a safe district it is easy to remain ideologically pure.

I’d like you to name a policy issue that Palin and Bachmann disagree on, because they are ideologically nearly identical. If it comes down to choosing between them, I would rather go with the one with almost 20 years of executive experience and has a history of rooting out corruption in both parties and balancing budgets while reducing taxes and cutting spending, thanks anyway.

Some have suggested Bachmann is only floating her name to take some of the heat off Sarah, as they are also very close friends. I guess the sophisticated term is ‘stalking horse.’ We’ll see.

I seriously doubt they both run.
