On Michele Bachmann, briefly

"As a state legislator, she was filmed hiding in the bushes at a rally against her same-sex marriage amendment. She once brought people into the Minnesota Capitol to pray over the desks of lawmakers who opposed her. Highlights of her time in Congress include the uncomfortably long embrace of George W. Bush after a state of the union address. More recently, her opposition to energy-efficient lightbulbs garnered jeers and notoriety."

This is from a Star Tribune article from 2008, just before the presidential election. We knew these things about her two years ago...so how did she get re-elected in District 6 yesterday? SERIOUSLY? Seriously.
