Bachmann Campaign Manager: She's Not Running For Governor
It looks like Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) will not be running for governor, in the wake of GOP Gov. Tim Pawlenty's announcement that he is not seeking a third term.
"I don't think so," Bachmann campaign manager Michelle Marston told Minnesota Public Radio. "I think she's very happy where she is."
Bachmann's name had come up in various media reports as a possible candidate for governor in case of an open seat. For some strange reason, liberal bloggers were especially fond of the idea.

Nothing to do with Bachmann being unable to get elected dog-catcher outside her insane-asylum district.

Aw, c'mon, Michelle. You can do it. The people of MN would be mesmerized by your tales from the Michelle Bachmann Nebula.
It's the alternative perspective from your parallel universe that the media is suppressing and MN voters deserve to hear. You owe it to them. Stand up for real-American patriotism!

You're missing the big picture here folks. She needs to keep her powder dry for the big Palin/Bachmann 2012 run.

Btw, how is it possible that we've been deprived of the pleasure of an incredibly inappropriate and batshit insane Bachmann or Palin comment on Dr. Tiller's murder? Is it possible that the ladies who, not so long ago, were going on and on about pallin' around with terrorists and Homeland Security's nefarious plans to keep an eye on heavily armed right wing extremists are feeling the need for some unaccustomed discretion?
