CREDO reports, "Today, in a rambling 8 minute and 40 second video, Michele Bachmann announced that four terms in Congress was "long enough" for her.
That's right: The Tea Party's queen of crazy won't seek re-election this year. She's out. And CREDO SuperPAC activists played a big role in slamming the door shut.
This is a victory not just for reason and decency in the fight against Tea Party extremism, but also for the power of grassroots democracy.
Thanks in part to CREDO SuperPAC, Michele Bachmann won by only 4,296 votes in 2012. This year, with volunteers in her district preparing for a massive neighbor-to-neighbor campaign to drive her out of office -- powered by the early financial support of grassroots donors across the country -- she was in too weak a position to ride out ethics investigations and expect to sail easily to re-election."
Here's "poor Michele's" farewell video - we hope! (I trust you are suitably impressed that she wants to thank God for his blessings on the USA.)
