Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) dismissed the idea of a Republican war on women Tuesday morning because she won the Iowa straw poll during her failed presidential campaign.
Bachmann appeared on Fox & Friends to fire back at the accusations against her partys policies regarding reproductive rights, saying they have come about because President Barack Obama cant talk about his record.
A recent CNN/Time Magazine poll of Florida voters shows Obama leading presumptive Republican candidate Mitt Romney by eight percentage points among women voters, and four points among all likely voters.
Without offering policy specifics, Bachmann told Gretchen Carlson that Obama was trying to create a phony narrative in order to win over female voters, and pointed to South Carolina Governors Nikki Haleys upcoming appearance at the GOP convention as a sign the party is friendly to women.
