Can we capitalize on Bachmann's departure?

SANDY’S LIGHTHOUSE EDITION |by Sandy Gresak

 Up Hill Battle for the Democrats??

Bachmann’s out...

Tea Party favorite, Michele Bachmann (R-Minn) announced on Wednesday she will not run for re-election for her fifth term. In July 2010, Michele launched the House Tea Party Caucus, but declared “I am not the head of the tea party.”

The GOP Conservative, well known for opposing the Obama Healthcare Bill. Also, is facing multiple investigations of her failed presidential finances, insisted this was not a consideration in her decision.

 

Even though Bachmann squeaked in a win against Democrat businessman Jim Graves, doesn’t mean it will give the Democrats a upper hand. It just became a whole lot harder. Minnesota’s Sixth District, represented by Bachmann, leans Republican. It is one of the most conservative districts in the state. Although, it isn’t a tea party haven, a moderate Republican could cause a real challenge for Graves.

 

So as I end this, let me leave you with one of the more memorable quotes of Michele Bachmann...

 

”Before we get started, let’s all say “Happy Birthday to Elvis Presley today.” Rep. Michele  Bachmann, while campaigning for president in South Carolina on what was actually the anniversary of Elvis’s death, August 16, 2011...Note Elvis was born on January 8.
