“I think her quitting the Church was a bad move - it draws attention to it.”

That was my point as well. Bachmann resigned from the Church six days before she announced for President . If she is so quick to throw her Church of many years under the bus when it is politically expedient, why should anyone trust that she won’t throw Conservatives under the bus when it is expedient?

After all, when most of us were supporting Ronald Reagan, she was organizing and working for Jimmy Carter and even attending his Inauguration.

Wow, you have to know this unknown from California who had just begun to show an interest in national office (Jimmy Carter has just been elected for the first and only time) had a church that somehow just didn’t MATTER.

You left out part of the story, you lying hack -- Bachmann ended being disgusted with Carter and worked for the REAGAN campaign in 1980.

You can't even get your facts straight:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michele_Bachmann#cite_note-GOP-09-07-06-13

During Carter's presidency, Bachmann became disappointed with his liberal approach to public policy, support for legalized abortion and economic decisions she held responsible for increased gas prices. In the 1980 presidential election, she voted for Ronald Reagan and worked for his campaign.

Bachmann grew up in a Democratic family and worked on Jimmy Carter's campaign during college. But throughout Carter's presidency, Bachmann says she grew disappointed with his liberal approach to public policy, from support for legalized abortion to economic decisions that sent gas prices soaring. Next election she voted for Reagan.
