Bachmann to form exploratory committee in June, possibly earlier


Washington (CNN) – CNN has exclusively learned that Rep. Michele Bachmann will form a presidential exploratory committee. The Minnesota Republican plans to file papers for the committee in early June, with an announcement likely around that same time.

But a source close to the congresswoman said that Bachmann could form the exploratory committee even earlier than June so that she could participate in early Republican presidential debates.

"She's been telling everyone early summer," the source told CNN regarding Bachmann's planned June filing and announcement. But the source said that nothing is static.

"If you come to us and say, 'To be in our debates, you have to have an exploratory committee,' then we'll say, 'Okay, fine...I'll go file the forms.'"

1. Delusional thinking must be a symptom of something.
Unless she's planning to run for Laughing Stock in Chief, she's seriously deluded.

3. Ahh, I still love Forrest (Tom Hanks) Gump.....
In character (and certainly in real life), he is incomparable. Bachmann, on the other hand would make a slug look Presidential by comparison. ;)

10. These Royal Roaders piss me off.
Why does Bachmann think she can wait until a year before the election to decide to run?
