Michele Bachmann Michele Bachmann at Last Tea Party Bus Tour Rally in Des Moines - lots of video

After being introduced by her Iowa State Co-Chair, State Senator Brad Zaun (R-Urbandale), she took to the stage and gave a standard stump speech. Advocating for a strong dollar, reducing the deficit, standing up for Israel, etc. It was a good speech, and I like the Congresswoman, but I would like to hear more details from her on how she would reduce the deficit, how would she make the dollar strong, etc.

The sponsors of the tour were told they were going to get a chance to ask the Congresswoman specific questions about topics such as the gold standard and whether or not she’d work to reverse the federal takeover of education through Race to the Top and the national common core curriculum, but that never materialized.

All hat, no cattle.
 
Disappointed that Zaun went to the Bachmann camp, but he comes with his own baggage.
 
The bus, by the way, was driven by Craig Bergman. (He refers to driving it in his Sarah Palin conversion manifesto on Facebook.)
 
It looks like it was poorly attended. I bet they wish they had Ron Paul there to double or triple the crowd size.
