Repub fires up write in vote against Bachmann

Aubrey Immelman, 52, is a psychology professor at St. John's University in Collegeville, Minn., who ran against Bachmann in the Republican primary. He finished second, with just 14 percent of the vote, but he got his campaign off the ground again Saturday by announcing he will run as a write-in candidate on Nov. 4 in the hope of knocking Bachmann out.

A South African immigrant to the United States who chose Minnesota for the great walleye fishing and the great colleges, Immelman has taught at St. John's since 1991. He calls himself a moderate Republican and says he supported Bob Dole in 1996 and George W. Bush in 2000, but opposes the disastrous turn in U.S. foreign policy that followed the Iraq war.

"I gave up everything to come here, which is why I feel so strongly about the direction my country has been taking," he said Monday. "I'm a proud, patriotic American. And I cannot tolerate this festering brand of neo-McCarthyism Michele Bachmann is pushing."

in donations since Bachmann showed her ass.

It would be great if a Dem picked up this seat, and Bachmann was sent packing!

(say that 10 times fast...I DARE ya'!)

:) Lovely move! I saw that the other day - it's perfect. I like this guy for doing that.

Bye-bye Bachmann. :hi: Been a bitch knowing you.
