This video of Congresswoman Michele Bachmann is from 2006... this year, Minnesota Republicans are prohibiting mainstream media videographers from covering Michele Bachmann.

"We've just had too many issues with videotape of Congresswoman Bachmann on the Internet with funny music playing, and chopped up to make her look foolish,"

"Bachmann’s speech was neither broadcast nor recorded by the media.

Sixth District Republican officials, in an unusual move, prohibited reporters from using tape recorders or video cameras within the convention. Note taking and still photography was allowed."

Will the same media restrictions apply when the Minnesota GOP hosts the RNC in August?

3. They are afraid of the upcoming election

when her groping the president and making an issue about light bulbs and saying that there's not a jobs problem in her district, many folks work two or even three jobs!...will all be used against her.

I will be at the MN 6th Dist. DFL convention, I bet cameras are allowed!

4. Why does Minn seem to be trending red?

5. Minnesota is NOT trending red

Michele Bachmann is far out of the mainstream even in the most conservative congressional district, the 6th. She was elected thanks to the lazy local media that refused to take her lies head-on, but instead, dutifully reported them.

To the contrary, the Minnesota Legislature and congressional delegation became even more Democratic in 2006.
