Michele Bachmann has dropped out of the Republican primary race.
It was the right thing for her to do.
From FOX News:
Following a sixth-place finish in the Iowa caucuses on Tuesday night, Michele Bachmann suspended her presidential campaign Wednesday morning.
“I have decided to stand aside,” she told a crowd of supporters in Des Moines, Iowa. “And I believe that if we are going to appeal Obamacare, turn our country around and take back our country, we must do so united, and I believe that we must rally around the person that our country, and our party and our people select to be that standard-bearer.”
“Make no mistake, I’ll continue to be a strong voice, I’ll continue to stand and fight for the country and for the American people and for our freedom,” she said.
Here's video:
I'm thankful there are people like Michele Bachmann, willing to suffer the slings and arrows of American politics in the 21st century.
She didn't achieve her goal, becoming the 2012 Republican nominee for president, but she should be proud.
She is a strong voice. I admire strong, conservative women like her.
MICHELE BACHMANN: I had just one message: To tell you that I mean what I say and I say what I mean. And I've told you the truth that our country is in very serious trouble, and that this might be the last election to turn the nation around before we go down the road to socialism, to a burden of debt too heavy for our children to bear. And I didn't tell you what the polls said that you wanted to hear. I didn't tell you what I knew to be false. I didn't try to spin you. I listened to the people of Iowa and all across America, and they agree that President Obama and his socialist policies must be stopped.
