Michele Bachmann to leave Congress, insisting departure has nothing to do with ongoing ethics invest

27. As with most

descisions to vacate elective office, the reasons seem many, generally, it may be mostly based on the major issue or issues at hand, e.g. family issues, redistricting, etc. In Bachman's case, I find the Federal investigation being the most significant, regardless how those investigations seem more window dressing with little accomplished. Another reason may be the potential loss in the next election, if she steps down in not seeking reelection, she preserves her brand. Don't laugh. Anyway, if she is beaten and rejected by the voters, that is a hard fact that lasts for ever until she fades into irrelevance.
