The Iowa Caucus votes are in...and Bachmann has finished last with only 5%. If it were a caucus anywhere else, it wouldn't have been a surprise, but Iowa is the candidate's home state. She should have at least been in the top three. Admitting defeat, Bachmann stated: "there are many more chapters to be written on the path to our party's nomination."
At least she is staying positive, looking forward to caucuses in the Carolinas as well as other states.
She did make some mistakes in her losing speech, saying: "I'd prefer to let the people of the COUNTRY decide who will represent us." With that quote, she offended the Iowans who did support her, as well as make an idiotic remark. The people of Iowa are still the people of America, aren't they? We all know Bachmann is a beautiful woman, but she's not the brightest. She attended several mediocre universities, and her campaign has reflected that.
People still dislike her. There isn't even press for Bachmann as a woman, as her being possibly the first woman president...maybe because no one truly thinks she'll win the election. The question really is, can she afford to continue?
