In reply to the discussion: BOOM!!- Ron Paul and Michele Bachmann Are UNDER FBI INVESTIGATION For Several Federal CRIMES [View all]rocktivity

Michele Bachmann read this statement in response to her Iowa campaign co-chairmans defection to the Ron Paul campaign:
And I guess it's going to reflect badly on Sorenson's business sense, too. If he HAD turned in a resignation, he could have claimed that he was simply "hired" by the Paul camp -- I KNEW this would come back to haunt him!

...Kent Sorenson personally told me he was offered a large sum of money to go to work for the Paul campaign...Kent said to me yesterday that everyone sells out in Iowa, why shouldnt I, then he told me he would stay with our campaign...Kent campaigned with us earlier this afternoon and went immediately afterward to a Ron Paul event and announced he is changing teams. The Ron Paul campaign has to answer for its actions."
Uh-huh -- it's Ron Paul's fault that Michele doesn't know how to take a hint.
Sorenson either wanted more money or decided to jump off a sinking ship. And since Bachmann neither offered a raise nor fired him, he didn't even do her the courtesy of handing in a resignation -- which reflects as poorly upon her leadership skills as it does upon his character.

I'm wondering if somehow we can find out if his dear darling son the Kentucky Pipsqueak is involved.

Perry and Bachmann will just find a way to blame Iowa corn dogs for their problems!

It'll just endear them to the Teabagger Republicans that much more! 10 point bounce!

I worry that things like this and McDonnell convictions might influence voters.

Rand Paul was going to use the campaign structure that his father used the past two times?
