Owner59 -> RE: Bachmann wishes Elvis happy birthday on death date (8/17/2011 7:48:17 AM)

An aide to Rep. Michele Bachmann quit her communications position, Politico reported on Wednesday. Michelle Marston had been responsible for helping Bachmann get a copious amount of air time on cable news shows. While Marston didn’t have much to say on the topic, an unnamed conservative Republican House member told Politico, “When your captain’s crazy, it’s time to find a new ship.” For her part, Marston said in an email to Politico, “I’m just not talking about it, and frankly I don’t think there’s a story here. Now, the thousands of people calling our office to tell us [they’re] coming to Capitol Hill tomorrow – that’s a story.” Bachmann is hosting a “House Call” and urging Tea Party activists to storm the Capitol on Thursday to oppose health care reform. Bachmann’s office has seen a fair amount of turnover since she arrived in Congress in 2006, losing more than a dozen staffers in her first two years.
