Bachmann riles Tea Party in Missouri — and Joe the Plumber gets involved

In Missouri, it’s Rep. Michele Bachmann vs. Joe the Plumber and the Tea Party.

More than two dozen Missouri Tea Party groups are fuming this week after Bachmann announced she was coming to St. Louis to campaign for Rep. Roy Blunt.

Blunt, a Republican, is running for Senate in Missouri, but some Tea Party groups there have thrown their support behind state Sen. Chuck Purgason in the GOP primary.

Purgason’s campaign is definitely a long shot: he’s raised $32,000 to Blunt’s $8.2 million, according to Federal Election Commission filings.

1. Looks like the Queen of the Teabaggers is about to get

the Marie Antoinette treatment!

So sad, I thought for sure the looniness of Bachmann and the craziness of the Teaturds was a match made in wingnut heaven.

3. you're going to be seeing more of this

for all of her talk, palin understands that if, at the end of the day, she backs a bunch of candidates that lose, she's going to look weak. So, in order to improve her box score, she's going to back candidates with the greatest chance of winning whether they are the tea party's choice or not.
