Bachmann to defend her seat in Congress

WASHINGTON - Talking for the first time about her political future since she dropped out of the presidential race, Minnesota Republican Michele Bachmann said Wednesday that she is in the race to defend her seat in Congress.

"I am very thrilled to be in the position that I am today, and I am looking forward to continuing," Bachmann, now in her third term, told the Star Tribune. "Obviously we'll see what happens with these [redistricting] maps... But I do intend to run again."

~~~~~~~~

But even as she announced her plans to run again, Bachmann bristled at questions about her political ambitions, the presidential race, and her place in Congress. At one point a press aide interrupted the interview to say Bachmann wanted to talk only about President Obama's State of the Union address and district topics like the proposed St. Croix River crossing.

~~~~~~~~

"Michele Bachmann has done absolutely nothing for the people of Minnesota's Sixth District in the last year," Minnesota DFL Chairman Ken Martin said Wednesday. "Since September 2011, she has missed over 90 percent of the votes in Congress. Instead, she was flying around the country and catering to her Tea Party friends as part of her failed bid for president."

I do not remember once while she was running for president did she mention Minnesota and all the things she did for her district.


edit: The last paragraph of the article might be the best.

I am Itching to Vote

I refuse to vote for a person that thinks it is okay to ban contraceptives.
I refuse to vote for a person that takes orders from a cult.
I refuse to vote for a racist and denies that they are a racist.
I refuse to vote for a person that thinks it is okay to shut down the government because they had to sit in the back of the plane.
I can not in good conscious vote for a person without knowing where they stand on abortion.

Who do I have left to vote for??
