No shit, Sherlock. But the willfully ignorant won't ever know about this.

Former Bachmann Chief of Staff: She Isn't Electable, Not Qualified To Be President
Eric Kleefeld | February 9, 2011, 4:37PM


Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN), the Tea Party star who has been eyeing a possible run for President, is now being badmouthed by an unusual source: Ron Carey, a former chairman of the Minnesota GOP -- who also happens to be one of Bachmann's many ex-chiefs of staff!

The Associated Press reported on the potential conflict of two Minnesotans -- Bachmann and former Gov. Tim Pawlenty -- who are both moving towards a potential White House bid. And Carey, who served as Bachmann's fifth chief of staff for just five months -- she has had quite a few chiefs of staff during her mere four years in the House -- isn't about to support Bachmann:

"While she passes the conservative test, my opinion from my association with her is she's not going to be an electable candidate for us," said Carey. "And even if she were elected I don't believe she would be ready for the position of the president of the United States."

When asked by TPMDC, Bachmann's office declined to comment.

1. She's not qualified to be a member of Congress either

But that hasn't stopped her or the idiots that voted for her.

4. Michelle Bachmann sees things we don't.

5. Those voting for her are not qualied either...lol

6. "Not ready" is irrelevent, as she is simply not qualified and never will be.

I can't imagine how she slipped through the cracks, but the Repugs encouraged her and now they can deal with her. Don't slough her off on us.

7. I'd go as far and say she's not qualified

for the human race.

8. All the more reason for her to run!

If she can get the 5-10% of the tea party vote running as a third party candidate, it would definitely be enough to swing a presidential election in our favor. I say run Michele, run! Wouldn't it be lovely to see a Palin/Bachmann tea party ticket? I know I'd personally recommend that all my republican friends vote for them, and encourage the insanity that would ensue if they made it far enough to get into the debates. It would be like watching a train wreck over and over again!
