...after suggesting she might move up her 2012 announcement, [Bachmann] is going back to her original plan. She will reveal her plans in June. “We want to make sure that what we are doing is deliberate and focused. We want to be prudent and responsible in the decisions that we are making,” she told the Des Moines Register. “So we’ve got our team together, and we’re trying to lay a well-grounded plan.”
What is the significance of that? My guess is that Bachmann, after hearing all the recent buzz about Sarah Palin, is waiting to see what the former governor of Alaska does. If Palin enters the race, Bachmann will take a pass. If Palin doesn't run, the Minnesota Congresswoman will probably jump in. But there's clearly room for only one of them.
And either way, it spells trouble for Tim Pawlenty in Iowa.
