Better Bachman than Mittwit. That said I think Ron won all of them last time and it didn't mean squat. Happy to see Romney getting curb stomped.

I had to lol when they released the results... and the guy only announced the first place and abruptly walked off the stage... even all the reporters were like "was that it?!"

Of course if Ron Paul would have gotten first they would have also mention 2nd and 3rd place like they did 4 years ago.

In the spring of 2009, during what appeared to be the beginnings of a swine-flu epidemic, Bachmann said, “I find it interesting that it was back in the nineteen-seventies that the swine flu broke out then under another Democrat President, Jimmy Carter. And I’m not blaming this on President Obama—I just think it’s an interesting coincidence.”

She is an ex IRS agent and voted just a few months ago to KEEP the patriot act. Pardon me if I don't jump for joy.

Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot is going on with our media?

I saw where RP (Ron Paul) was within less then one percent of beating MB, A VIRTUAL TIE, but the media just ignores that, like he wasn't even there.

It didn't get by Jon Stewart though.

Ron Paul Interview With Piers Morgan 08\15/2011
Discusses media blackout.
Fwiw, doesn't sound like he'd consider Bachmann as a running mate should he win the nomination.

I think that's an excellent interview!

at approx 4:45 into the video:
"I'm virtually running on George Bush's foreign policy of the year 2000. He was very critical of Clinton, the intervention, the nation-building. He said we don't need to be in nation-building, we don't to be intervening, we don't need to be the policemen of the world. That's George Bush. I'm just running on his foreign policy so why is it so strange now? You know why? 'Cause I'm serious about it. I'm just not pandering to the people. The peace candidate is always a very strong candidate. Obama was the peace candidate in the last go-around because he was going to start bringing out troops home and ending those wars and here we are in more wars than ever."

Amen Dr. Paul! You tell 'em.

Hmmm....

Here's Fox's fox. I stand corrected, she spells it "Megyn."
