....the real turmoil in which the GOP is boiling...
Sorenson stuns Michele Bachmann with switch to Ron Paul's camp Members of her campaign were visibly distraught with news of his sudden support for the Texas congressman. In a stunning, late-breaking Iowa caucus turnabout, the state chairman for presidential candidate Michele Bachmann ditched her campaign Wednesday night to endorse Ron Paul, a rival in the race for the GOP nomination. The defection of Kent Sorenson, an Iowa state senator, came just six days before Iowa’s first-in-the-nation caucuses, and caught the Bachmann campaign by surprise. Sorenson had chaired Bachmann’s caucus efforts here for months, and even attended a Bachmann event in Indianola on Wednesday afternoon just hours before appearing at a Paul rally in Des Moines to announce his endorsement. “I believe we’re at a turning point in this campaign,” Sorenson said in his announcement at the Paul rally “… I thought it was my duty to come to his aid, just like he came to my aid during my Senate race, which was a very nasty race.” Sorenson, an Indianola Republican, was elected to the state Senate in 2010 with support from Paul and his legion of Iowa backers. His announcement was greeted with sustained applause from a crowd of roughly 500. http://tinyurl.com/bwn5pea -- Hate women? Hate the idea of women having sex? Vote Republican, and join in the GOP's unhinged attacks on Planned Parenthood, the HPV vaccine, and insurance coverage of contraception. |
