Bachmann for President

Oh happy day! Let this be true:

Fresh off winning reelection and proving she can raise massive amounts of campaign cash, Rep. Michele Bachmann is beginning to consider a presidential run, according to close congressional aides.

As part of that effort, the Minnesota Republican will travel to the early caucus state of Iowa on Jan. 21 to confer with state GOP leaders and address a group of conservative tax activists.

Yesterday, Ed Schultz insisted -- seriously -- that Bachmann could get the nomination. Not a chance in hell. But watching her try, along with the Palin White Trash Word Salad Express 2012 campaign, will be the gift that keeps on giving the whole year.
