Michele Bachmann on running for president: "There's a chance"

[mota bhai 2,675]

Though set to retire from the U.S. House after her term expires at the end of this year, Michele Bachmann may not be done with electoral politics.

The Minnesota congresswoman and 2012 Republican presidential candidate told RealClearPolitics on Tuesday that she is considering a second White House run.

Bachmann made the revelation during an interview, in which she was asked for her view on whether any Republican women might seek the Oval Office in 2016.

"The only thing that the media has speculated on is that it's going to be various men that are running," she replied. "They haven't speculated, for instance, that I'm going to run. What if I decide to run? And there's a chance I could run."

Oh yes, please. Let her run. Please.

I'd rather she not. For once, I want to see two credible candidates vying for the office and not one Democrat and one candidate spit out of a crazy clown car.

Oh lighten up. She'd never win the nomination but her trying to would be very entertaining. Michelle and Rick could outcrazy each other for a few months. Instant comedy.

Michele (one l, not two) and Rick aren't remotely comparable. Rick is Presidential material. Michele is not.

Aside from that, what good does it do the nation to encourage this type of person to run? We already have diehard palinites who think that Palin would have made not only a good VP but a good president and can't see anything wrong with her intellect and capacity to think critically, do we really need more of the same?

Yes. I like to have that real life validation of my firm belief that the Republican Party is built largely on the support of imbeciles.

Of course, because the master plan to destroy America has run this country to the ground... The Teas will have to make do with whatever they find still standing. The country is all but ruined...
