But are we sure she means President of the United States of America, maybe she means President of her local Garden Club or PTA, one never knows which fantasy she is living in at the moment she is sticking her hoof in her mouth once again. I say the GOP should nominate her, just think of all the fun we would all have every time she opens her mouth, just kidding, nominating her would be nothing less than the GOP announcing publically that they are no longer a viable Political Party in America.

The Iowa straw poll, like all straw polls are bought by the candidates. Most reasonable thinking people know this. You were referring to people on here""
BUT not exclusively.
""" and for the most part few were strongly behind Bachmann. yes, a few years ago, many were strong supporters of Palin, some still are, others have changed their minds.
As for Bachmann you may not like her ideas, I may not be a supporter but obviously the people from her district think she has good ideas.
It might surprise you to know, we all have opinions on C-D and your comments are just opinions, not facts.

So she has no contributors? Or they're all Democrats??? I don't think so. Most intelligent people would know she didn't get where she is(presidential candidate, debater) with no supporters.
I am from her district (where her SUPPORTERS elected her twice and she broke a contributions record with help from out-of-country contributors) and know MANY Republicans who wanted her to run for President although they can't seem to come up with any good ideas she's had......and she has done NOTHING for her district....
At least my opinions, unlike other's, are based on facts ....
And I don't lie about what others posted......unlike.....
and I would like you to show me where most Rrpublicans ever supported her? Thinking she makes some good points or is a good speaker isn't supporting her. Most fair minded people can find good in everyone and are willing to point out pros as well as cons. This does not mean they support the person. Only someone who is very narrow minded can't see this.

Didn't she just win the Iowa straw poll? A majority of Republicans must think pretty highly of her.

As most of us realize, straw polls are bought, not won. I have given her credit for standing up to what she beleives in and having firm beliefs. That is why I don't mind it when she makes the comment "When I am Pres" but she is about finished. What happens in Iowa, i will remind you usually has little if anything to do with what happens when primary season gets underway. Unless there is a huge swing, it is down to the 2 that got the attention last night: the media will see to that regardles how many might feel.
BTW, my comments were addressed to the response that said so many Republicans on CD supporter her and are now turning away, it has little to do with her national support or lack of same, but the polls do show her losing support daily.

must have a lot of bigoted folk in that district. Seriously, what kind of ppl elect such a person that campaigns on her social agenda first and foremost before all else?

That's got a lot of sane folks here scratching their heads... we'd liked to know who the idiots are who voted for this non-productive whackjob.
One "expert' put forth that there's UNfortunately a lot of Catholics in this district who vote One Issue...and that ONE stupid issue which they're willing to sacrifice all else for is abortion. Those who are anti-choice only have two brain cells....and stuck us with her..
This is why I can't take this woman seriously. The over use of the term Obamacare. Regardless if this was his policy stop calling it Obamacare it's not the politically correct term. I believe if you want to win votes and be taken seriously you have to be serious in how to walk the walk and talk the talk. Politically correct terms are a must when running for President. People are watching and LISTENING to EVERYTHING.

Why is it not the politically correct term? You need to tell the entire country that so they will use whatever term you think is acceptable.
NOw, I agree she overuses it and seems to be stuck on that and balancing the budget. Regardless of the questions asked she goes back to those 2 subjects. SHe drove me a little nuts last night (of courfse that wouldn't take much)
