Bachmann's troubles go from bad to worse
Political Animal —
... In the latest twist, Bachmann told voters yesterday that she'd never seen "Hardball" before, and is convinced that Chris Matthews had set a "trap" and she "stepped into it." As excuses go, this is pretty silly. Bachmann, a member of Congress, said some crazy things.

Besides, Bachmann was just as ridiculous yesterday when she told far-right blogger Hugh Hewitt, "Barack Obama's views are against America." I guess Hewitt ...

... Other endorsements-- and virtual withdrawals of endorsements-- were even more stunning.

She’s a deranged cus, isn’t she? I don’t know who earns more Pinocchios, but Michele Bachmann or Robin Hayes.

On Hugh Hewitt’s radio show yesterday, Bachmann declared that “Barack Obama’s views are against America”: BACHMANN: All I did on Chris Matthews is I questioned Chris Matthews and said, “look, if John McCain ...
