I think she has the ability to be dangerous, and she is not only misinformed, but has a weak grasp of everything from history, to politics to geography. She's good at selling herself.
Now, I feel she's been given enough rope to hang herself. Michelle Bachman is on her way there. Being given enough rope to hang herself. Just let her keep talking and saying stupid racist, classist things. Good. Can't stand her either, and I think she's even more dangerous to our personal freedoms than Palin. Bachman thinks that the recent weather disasters are "punishments from G*d" for letting Obama into the White House.
Neither of them believe in the fact of evolution. HOW can someone like run a country that requires rational thought to properly run? I have no idea.
