Actually, Bachmann's interview in the weekend edition of The Wall Street Journal a couple weeks ago was pretty impressive.

But overall, she is probably better qualified than Rick Perry, as an example. I think if she could "tighten up" her platform and the delivery of a concise message, she'd have as good a chance as anyone in the GOP for 2012.

Don't get me wrong, Obama is going to be almost impossible to beat given the disorganization of the GOP and his 100-length lead in fund-raising. If the economy continues to improve, if he and Boehner can arrive at some plausible agreement on spending cuts, tax increases and the debt limit increase, and if we really can bring 30-40,000 troops home before the election, like I said he'll be impossible to beat.
