Dems to Bachmann — bring it on
Sixth District Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, R-Stillwater, success at drawing thousands to Washington for a tea party rally yesterday was chronicled in the influential publication Politico.
The publication noted the strong feelings the throng had for the second term Republican, but also quoted a Democratic spokesman with a “bring it on” mentality.
“If Republicans want to make Michele Bachmann the voice of the party, that’s more than fine with us. We’ll help circulate the petition,” said Democratic National Committee spokesman Hari Sevugan. “It’s their extreme right-wing, rigid ideological agenda that has Americans leaving the Republican Party in droves — and so, if displays like today are what they think is a smart political strategy, all we can say is: Go for it.”
