thinkprogress.org — Boehner and Cantor ‘wary of the possible damage inflicted on the party’s reputation’ by Bachmann. Bachmann has previously said that she’s been “labeled a kook” throughout her entire political career. Apparently, House Republicans are concerned that she’ll make that label stick to them as well.

She will hurt them. She's now just as nuts as Ron Paul.

Bachmann's not their biggest problem. Ironically, FOX is: <a class="user" href="http://obamesque.wordpress.com/2009/09/16/is-murdochs-fox-actually-undermining-the-gop/" rel="nofollow">http://obamesque.wordpress.com/2009/09/16/is-murdo ...</a>

One quick question: what took them so long?

Foaming at the mouth, many may become aggressive, combative, and highly sensitive to touch and other kinds of stimulation. And they can be vicious. This is the "furious" form of rabies, the kind traditionally associated with mad dogs, or republicans.

Even stranger, Bachmann's town hall was carefully scripted, BUT her wingman was so good he made her look bad, and she ended up saying we needed reform and a safety net (please, please, don't think of this as endorsing that nasty ol' "public option" though, she really does cling to the anti-Obama cloak with pride!) <a class="user" href="http://wp.me/pjYZO-3w" rel="nofollow">http://wp.me/pjYZO-3w</a> The GOP may have to change their name to the Ironic Old Party soon.

Maybe Boehner and Cantor should be concerned about how they're hurting the GOP. They sure say some stupid things too.

Perhaps they need to be worried a bit more about the BIGGER problem. Those in the party that "voted" for her... as well as those in their party that both agree with her bats**t crazy ramblings and believe them to be true.
