God can't be wrong. The miracle is coming. God is just tempting her. She still believes. Maybe because there was no snow God got confused as to where he was suppose to be tonight.

the sane and leadership proven Tarryl Clark is baffling. Clark runs circles around Bachmann when leadership qualities are considered.

knows the one who gives them out!
Some notable quotes:


“I think there’s a lot of silent support that’s going to come out tonight,” she said. “We think people are going to be very surprised with what the vote is tonight. We’re confident.”

“We’re moving on and we’re moving forward,” she added. “This election is far from over.”

"The poll that we saw is the one we saw in the last 99 counties, and it was overwhelming," she said.

"It was like an electric light switch was flipped on .... We saw literally thousands of people make their decision on the spot. They're our best advocates."

"Tomorrow night we are going to see a miracle, because we know the one who gives miracles," Bachmann said Monday night at a rally outside her headquarters in Urbandale.

Face it crazy woman. You suck. And you lost. Go away.

rule of thumb:
"The saner they seem, the farther they fall".

Edit: Although, using this metric, we'd have to consider Bachmann's results as an outlier fluke!

How could her god and Earthly Master Marcus do this to her in the state of her begoteness. She was promised a miracle, and there must have been a big screw up somewhere in their system.
