Michele Bachmann continues to surge in the polls so what are the Republican power brokers going to do?  The Democrats dream candidate is Ms Bachmann for the Republican elites it’s a nightmare.  So what are they to do?  Call Tucker Carlson’s rag The Daily Caller and arrange a hit piece.

In late July 2010, Rep. Michele Bachmann’s then-communications director, Dave Dziok, told his boss that he planned to take a new job with the public relations firm Edelman.

Dziok had worked for Bachmann for two and a half years, a relatively long period by the standards of her office, and was leaving on good terms.

Staff turnover can frustrate any employer, but Bachmann responded more dramatically. Dziok’s departure triggered a debilitating medical episode that landed the congresswoman in urgent care.

“Within 24 hours she was in the hospital,” a former aide says.

And this was not first time!

It was, according to three people who have worked closely with Bachmann, not an isolated event.The Minnesota Republican frequently suffers from stress-induced medical episodes that she has characterized as severe headaches. These episodes, say witnesses, occur once a week on average and can “incapacitate” her for days at time. On at least three occasions, Bachmann has landed in the hospital as a result.

This was so predictable.  If not this it would have been something else.  Neutralize the crazy.  It really doesn’t matter how true this is Bachmann is finished.  I image they are doing some serious research on Rick Perry.

Update:

There must be something there.  Reporter Brian Ross was roughed up my Bachmann’s body guards when he tried to ask a question about it.
