PoliCHARTZ - Thread of U.S. Politics & the Presidential Election

[Final-Fan]

I can't see steven787's video, so here's another:  [edit:  I see it now, but I'll leave my "short version" up unless a mod feels like deleting it.  I won't mind if they do. This video shows the climactic ending of the interview.]

I'm ashamed that this person could get elected to Congress in MY STATE.  Fortunately, she's probably about to get beaten.  The Democratic challenger got like half a million dollars in contributions in the 24 hours after this aired.  

The REPUBLICAN who ran in the primary against her had this to say:  "Thank you for your support in helping me lead the charge in Minnesota’s 6th Congressional District against the destructive neocon ideology that has mired the United States in an unnecessary war in Iraq at a cost of thousands of American lives, hundreds of billions in taxpayer dollars, and untold damage to the international stature of the United States of America. And, as if incumbent Rep. Michele Bachmann’s enthusiastic support for these policies is not damaging enough, she now appears to be calling for a witch hunt to 'find out [which members of Congress] are pro-America or anti-America.' We cannot tolerate this festering brand of neo-McCarthyism in our midst."

More and more I expect a schism between Republicans who embrace this kind of politics and those who reject it.  The struggle between these two factions is what is tearing McCain apart.
