Bachmann: Romney, Gingrich 'have significant flaws'
Rep. Michele Bachmann said Tuesday she still thinks she has a good chance of winning the Iowa Republican caucuses, saying presidential campaign rivals Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney “have significant flaws.”
Bachmann said in a nationally broadcast interview that she, more than her rivals, personifies the kind of conservative values Iowa Republicans want, and said she believes “we're going to be shocked on Jan. 3 when we see the results.”
Bachmann commented at a time when polls continue to show her in the lower tier of candidates vying to challenge President Barack Obama next year.
