Michele Bachmann Meets the Press

Posted: 08/08/11 10:16 AM ET

Even a marvelous elocutionist like Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) needs a little practice sometimes. As her national profile rises, so too does the pressure for her to perform like a sane, non-delusional adult who doesn't despise all homosexuals or, y'know, believe that a hateful God sends orders directly to her brain. Check out this exclusive leaked footage from her recent rehearsal sessions in preparation for her upcoming appearance on Meet the Press. If there's anyone who can survive David Gregory's fierce interrogation, it's our gal Michele -- just so long as she remembers his name.

The trick is knowing if she's as nutty as she acts or if her act is because she's nutty....

"Elocutionist." I love that term! Supports my contention that the skill set of a politician consists of two skills: Shaking down donors and fooling voters.
