Former Bachmann IA Chair Endorses Ron Paul (State Sen. Kent Sorenson)

I have as much sympathy for Bachmann as she has for the Iranians and other Muslims she wants to bomb back into the Stone Age: none.

It would be epic if Sorenson actually decided to join the campaign for the next five days for no money.

That's what he's doing, apparently. So yeah: epic! I think it helps a lot because it torpedoes the media narrative of only (crazy people / pot smokers / dirty hippies / racists / whatever ) supporting Ron Paul. Conservative Iowa state senator... that good enough credentials for you, MSM?

Then it would be good for the RP campaign to definitively answer the charge. Something along the lines of "From vaccines, to foreign policy, true to form has continued to fumble with the facts of the story......".
 
History being made?

Two Dean moments on the same day.

Time for a third yet if they hurry.:D
 
Call me a little skeptic, but I have this feeling this was a intentional move and not for Paul's benefit. Here's why. Earlier today there was talk the evangelicals were trying to talk Santorum or Bachmann to drop out because they were diluting the christian vote. Now, what if those talks broke down between the two candidates, but they were able to talk to Sorenson in secret to leave Bachmann for Paul as a strategic move to make her campaign look weak in the eyes of voters in hopes of those voters jumping ship to Santorum since his numbers are going up and he could possibly make a run for 3rd place.

I think all along the GOP has been hoping for a Santorum bump that never materialized until now and they need another anti-Romney choice to dilute Ron's surge. Since Gingrich is losing steam, they need Santorum now more than ever. I'm just smelling a rat in all of this and I just can't buy into this fully that it was a sincere move on Sorenson's part without strings.
 
Where did Bachmann's supporters go?

Why wouldn't these people at this secret meeting just have him defect to Santorum's campaign?
 
Who is this joker and why do we care.

Maybe he's a troll who Bachmann told to do this so she could claim something bogus.
 
This was political suicide for Sorenson. The establishment will look very harshly upon him and Sorenson knew this before making his announcement. It insults ones intelligence to think that a person would throw away their whole future for 40 pieces of silver. Therefore, for him to do that sort of thing, he had to know in his heart that he was doing the right thing. Bachman is just trying to make him look like Judas Iscariot...she is pandering off of this to the evangelicals.

The writing is on the wall. Those not supporting RP at this point is committing political suicide in the near future.

Reactions: Cap
It's a major boost to Paul's campaign, which has been dogged by criticism from establishment Republicans that his support here was largely among Democrats and independents.

Regardless of whether this is true or not. Doesn't the republican party care to expand the base? Doesn't this solidify he'd have the best chance to take out Obama?

Don't these guys want a small government conservative? It is obvious the establishment does not.
