Michele Bachmann just weighed in "Debategate," telling Whispers that the media is trying to pick the Republican presidential winner, cutting voters out of the process.
"There's always a suspicion of maybe a bias and I guess this just confirmed it," she said of a CBS memo before Saturday's debate, which suggested that the Minnesota Republican congresswoman would be ignored during the foreign policy chatfest.
The memo, she said, "demonstrates that the media wants to choose who our nominee will be and who the next president of the United States will be."
She added that "it's the same as the government choosing winners and losers. It shouldn't."
Bachmann said that she is frustrated with her lack of media plan and attention during the debate. She called the race for the nomination "absolutely fluid" with candidates dropping or rising weekly.
"If the media decides based on current polling how much time the candidates get [in debates]. They are trying to determine that ultimate outcome and influence it," she said. The solution, she added, is giving candidates equal time to answer questions.
And, she said, she won't protest or boycott CBS. "Oh, no, no," she said. "The media will do what they're going to do."
Well then, "Michellle the Idiot", the next best question would then be.... Who controls the media? Answer that, and you've got your "controller" and you've gotta believe that they ain't going to let you near the Presidency.
People who believe her and think that the Media is some sort of uncontrolled entity, would probably believe that she is asking for a totalitarian regeme. I mean, how else are you going to 'cope' with that?
