2. Go New Hampshire! Same as the Old Hampshire!
Didn't Washington cross the Delaware to get to New Hampshire or was that Paul Revere?

11. I mean, let's face it, her campaign has been dead for some time now
she just hasn't laid down yet.

for that matter, there really are only 3 candidates at this point.......Santorum, Gingrich, Huntsman, Bachmann, Romer, ......all they're doing is pissing away money they probably don't have.

12. Nobody Wants to Be Tied to a Loser in NH GOP Politics
Everyone has an agenda beyond the election. Purity of politics has nothing to do with it.

24. Exactly.
The NH primary is a job fair for political staffers, among other things.

16. It is a jerry-mandered district
The Minnesota sixth - which Bachmann never won with more than 50 percent of the votes until the last election - is seriously jerry-mandered to be a conservative stronghold. It includes St. Cloud (long history of overt racism) and was carefully drawn to "horseshoe" around the Twin Cities, to include upper middle class Twin Cities suburbs to the north and east. Before the final numbers came out from the '10 census, it was considered the district that Minnesota would break up as the state would lose one rep in the U.S. House (turns out we didn't).

26. Sigh .. check the facts ...
She did not take more then 50 percent of the vote *UNTIL* the 2010 election, when the Republicans pretty much swept every House and Seante race in the nation. This was *after* she was the darling of the Tea Party movement, and tons of out-of-state money flowed in to her campaign

Hardly a "district full."

And most states have highly-biased districts drawn.

14. Damn.
I was really hoping Nutso could hang in it long enough to miss the '12 House election. If she flames out too early, she'll come back to Minnesota, regroup, work up the hate and run again. If she's still in the race in March, she may think it's time to take the circus nationally all-the-time and just move to FOX, vacating her seat.

18. She is well known for having high turnover of senior staff in her Congressional office
That is something that is usually a sign of something not being right.
