She is clearly a complete idiot and should never be reelected. She admits today that she had never before watched the "Hardball" show on which she appeared. She is an incompetent idiot.

Her statement to host Chris Matthews that Obama "may have anti-American views" drew condemnation and helped her opponent, Democrat Elwyn Tinklenberg, raise more than $1 million in just a few days.
During an interview with the Times' editorial board, Bachmann said she walked into a trap and did not bring up the term "anti-American." Still, she said, "I should not have used that phrase."
Earlier in the day, Bachmann told St. Cloud Rotary Club members she would like to "take back" the statement.
...Bachmann said Tuesday she probably should have watched "Hardball" to see what it was like before she went on it.

Default She shouldn't blame "Hardball" or Chris Matthews

He was basically letting her speak her mind. She's the one that f'd up and thought she was on Faux News.

Doh!

Somehow, it doesn't surprise me that this woman walked onto Matthews' show in a completely clueless condition. It's beautiful when Chris gives these fools enough rope to hang themselves.

She thought she was being cute and didn't think when challenged. She thought she was being tough. I watched it unfold.
