What makes the incident even more bizarre is that Bachmann is in a close congressional race and just this past week offered warm words to the Illinois Democrat. "If the presidency would somehow go to Barack Obama, I would welcome him to the 6th District as well," she said after a debate. "As a matter of fact, I would put my hand on his shoulder and give him a kiss if he wanted to."

A Democratic campaign official emailed that Bachmann's Democratic opponent has raised at least $23,000 online since the Hardball segment aired.

10. I think the contributions made through his web page are

separate from Act Blue, which would mean over $50,000 between the two.

[parasim]

15. Well then, that's even better!

Awesome!

[thoughtcrime1984]

3. She is not allowed to touch the President to be, much less kiss him.

She won't be in the House to fight against, either. Her 4 point lead is going to vanish, I predict.

[Jennicut]

49. Ewww, why would Obama want to get a kiss from that thing called a woman.

Yuck.

[Faygo Kid]

4. Keep donating! Keep Barack from being kissed by Michelle Bachmann!

"Fredo, you broke my heart!"

"House Committee on Un-American Activities," "Joe McCarthy," and "McCarthyism."

She deserves it.

[Marsala]

37. Ah ha ha ha!

I wonder how long that will be there. What a nutcase.

[FVZA_Colonel]

51. It's gone, but I didn't think it would last.

Still, it was funny (and true) while it did.

[Thrill]

35. Sent 10 dollars. This feels special. How many ads can he run now?

[marsyl316]

36. A Virginia Republican donating to Tinklenberg

Bachmann makes me ill. I could not believe her rant on Chris
Matthews. I am a registered Republican and I just donated to
the Tinklenberg Campaign and the Obama/Biden campaign tonight.
The GOP is a mess and I seriously doubt I'll ever support them
again. Their true colors are coming out. Thank you so much for
posting the link to Tinklenberg's campaign. I'm voting
Democratic in November, no question. 

[Connie_Corleone]

38. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

I'm happy to see an intelligent Republican who puts country first.

more!!!
