is she a little obnoxious, dumb about small facts, and acts batshit crazy?
Sure!
Has she consistently been a voice of smaller govt, less spending, and all that good stuff, for the last decade, even when it wasn't popular?
Yes!
I'll take her any day over a Mitt or Palin, who were RINOs all the way, spending like drunken sailors IN THEIR OWN STATES, then suddenly deciding they like tea party non-spending in 2009 when that's popular.
You know what you're getting with bachmann. She's nutty, but she will help economy greatly, and actually stick to the tea party ideals. Closest thing to a libertarian you're gonna get, unless RPaul runs. I'd pick her over Mitt or palin or rudy or even huck any day in a primary.
