The Michele Bachmann Election Eve Show

more at http://www.theuptake.org
One of the undisputed stars of the Minnesota Republican Party was, and will remain to be, Michele Bachmann. Her penchant for outrageous comments coupled with a hard-right bent has earned her intense scrutiny from the media and strong support from Republican activists.

With the results of her race against DFL and Independent endorsed candidate Elwyn Tinklenberg still in doubt Bachmann entered the ballroom floor relatively early in the evening to talk with a select few members of the media.

Bachmann stopped to talk with former Minnesota Sen. Rudy Boschwitz and conservative talk show host Jason Lewis.

Lewis appeared to suggest that if Bachmann had tied her controversial comments about Barack Obama and some of her congressional coleagues holding "anti-American" views to the KKK and individuals such as the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) and Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney then more of the public would have understood.

Sometime after midnight, Tinklenberg conceded and Bachmann delivered her acceptance speech to roaring approval. Minnesota GOP Chair Ron Carey was particularly fired up for the occasion. Many late polls had Bachmann trailing Tinklenberg.

Bachmann has been sucking on the government titty for so many years. A vote for her is another vote for the good ole boys on the hill. She's just one of the same damned gang. She is bought and paid for.

She doesn't have a Minnesota accent, but I guess that means nothing.

@uyd No that is democracy in action. Oh why do I bother casting pearls before swine?

Like she had ANY ANY control over the cost of gasoline! The bailout of the auto industry saved it and many workers jobs. Good job Bachmann, you are the most ignorant member of Congress.
