I actually think she's the rich man's Palin, but that just shows more of how utterly impoverished Palin's mind is than anything positive for Bachmann.

Crazy seems to be the perfect word to describe her.

*Called for McCarthy-like investigations into perceived anti-Americanism in members of Congress.
*Said the U.S. Census was too "intricate" and wouldn't complete it because the Constitution doesn't require that citizens do (when it does).
*Told supporters to be "armed and dangerous" to stop the cap and trade bill.
*Thinks global warming is a hoax.
*Thinks being gay is a sexual identity disorder and a sign of sexual dysfunction and that gay people are trying to recruit children to be gay.

I realize all these things are positives nowadays in the Republican/Tea Party, but I'm not sure how they'll pan out in a general election setting and how these comments will sift with independent and moderate voters.

I don't agree with her dwelling so much on homosexuality, but I do think there is an overly aggressive gay agenda in this country... and I'm a Democrat.

Yeah I can't imagine why gays would want people to treat them decently or have equal rights.

I mentioned the gay/lesbian/bisexual high schools that are popping up over here to some of my lefty European friends and they thought it was bizarre.  Being able to get a job and not have ugly slurs hurled at you is an admirable goal, but there are certain demands from that movement that are kind of out there.

She'd be a fun nominee. And with a gay husband, to boot!

Many middle of the road, hard working and law abiding American citizens would be rightly frightened to have her as President. It is for that reason she is entirely unsuitable.
