The Republican Presidential Clown Show Just Got Clownier

Pass the Popcorn

Bachmann has made it official:

Rep. Michele Bachmann (R., Minn.) said Monday that she had formally become a Republican candidate for president.

Ms. Bachmann's announcement had been expected, though the forum was not. It came while she was participating in a CNN-televised debate for Republicans seeking to challenge President Barack Obama.

Somewhere, Jon Stewart is rejoicing, and Stephen Colbert is beside himself with glee.
