Infighting! Bachmann To Run For House Leadership

[Generic Other]

Conservative Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) -- founder of the Tea Party Caucus -- will make a bid to be part of House leadership next Congress, likely touching off a tough intra-GOP battle for influence over the new majority.

In a message to her supporters on Facebook, Bachmann writes, "I am pleased to announce that I am running for Chairman of the House Republican Conference! Constitutional Conservatives deserve a loud and clear voice in leadership!"

1. I'm telling you guys

we need to foster distrust within the ranks of the republican party, make them tear themselves apart.

3. it is destined - we can use our efforts on other things

this one will take care of itself - and it's going to be a great show.

[calimary]

10. I wouldn't be so trusting.

Don't make the mistake of assuming that it'll just take care of itself. BIG mistake and can be extremely naive considering the craven bunch we're dealing with here. That's like trusting the American people to know what the truth is, when all they really know is what they're force-fed 24/7 on the wrong-wing media machinery.

You don't dare! I'm against leaving ANYTHING to chance.

DESTABILIZE THE ENEMY! PRIORITY ONE!!!!!

[KILL THE WISE ONE]

12. Does this mean that all of us should go out on the internet and cheer her on?
