Shameless Bachmann on El: “He is more line with President Bush’s policies than I am."

[Faygo Kid]

Speaking of her opponent El Tinklenberg, of course. She is utterly shameless; amoral.

This woman is a clear and present danger to this nation, and to my sanity:

ST. CLOUD, Minn. (AP) — Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann — who has never been shy when it comes to praising President George W. Bush — used a debate on Thursday to distance herself from the unpopular president.

Bachmann even tried to link her Democratic challenger, former state transportation chief Elwyn Tinklenberg, to the GOP president.

“He is more line with President Bush’s policies than I am,” said Bachmann, ticking off issues where she has disagreed with Bush, including the $700 billion financial services bailout. Bachmann voted against the bill twice. Tinklenberg has said he would have voted for it.

“I’ve been willing to be a strong reformer in Washington, D.C., and take on my own party, including the bailout,” Bachmann said.

Asked about her statements after the forum at the St. Cloud Public Library, Bachmann denied that she was distancing herself from Bush. She said she has “taken on the president” before and since being elected to Congress two years ago.

11. R + 5 district, and..

...an opponent who had never served in government (Patty Wetterling).

Michele Bachmann was a State Senator.
