Chris Matthews To Bachmann: Did Someone Hypnotize You? (VIDEO)

Chris Matthews To Bachmann: Did Someone Hypnotize You? (VIDEO)

Well this was a bizarre interview:

Chris Matthews talked to Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) on MSNBC tonight, and got a bit frustrated when she wouldn’t answer his questions: “Congresswoman Bachmann — are you hypnotized tonight? Has someone hypnotized you? Because no matter what I ask you, you give the same answer. Are you hypnotized, has someone put you under a trance tonight?

Bachmann replied: “I think the American people are the ones that finally are speaking tonight. We’re coming out of our trance, really we’re coming out of our nightmare. I think that people are thrilled tonight. I imagine that thrill is probably not quite so tingly on your leg anymore.”
