Battle of the Goodbods

Michelle finally has her name up in lights. All America gazes at the marquee. "Bachman Rebuts!"

Meanwhile, Sarah reloads.

It's an American Idol spinoff. Swimsuit and complexion judges will be required to award the relatively elderly Mrs. Bachman an eight-year seniority handicap.

It's going to be a strange primary season.

Watch out for Bachmann. I'm telling ya', she's good.

She flawlessly hit her constituency's hot buttons. That will add to the momentum she gained last week in her first offical foray into Iowa where she wowed the theocrats. She'll be a caucus factor, and could even win. (See Huckabee, 2008.)

I don't disagree with much of her economic stance -- insofar as she has one other than a rote regurgitation of the lower taxes (good idea) and less regulation (likewise) mantras.

Her problem is an intellect limited to an us-them simplicity. If she ever comes to understand that the fight is less with Obama and more with the ideas he represents, then she'll have grounds for asking to be taken seriously.
