Will Bachmann Endorse "Vulture Capitalist" Mitt Romney?

Bachmann may be out of the race for the White House, but she is still a (mostly non-voting) congress member and GOP diva. Are any candidates still in the race asking for her support? If the candidates read our book "The Madness of Michele Bachmann", they'd likely welcome a Bachmann endorsement as they would a bite from a rattlesnake. Mitt Romney is under attack from Newt Gingrich and others for being a "vulture capitalist" as the CEO of Bain Capital. Think Progress has a video up of that criticism: During his tenure, Bain acquired numerous companies, often through debt leveraging, then liquidated a number of them, resulting in the loss of thousands of jobs for American workers while bringing in hundreds of millions in profit for Romney and Bain’s other investors. Bachmann has a much more serious problem - her association with Tom Petters financier Frank Vennes, who could be described as a vampire capitalist - a convicted money launderer indicted for fraud and money laundering in a $3.8 billion Ponzi scheme. Frank Vennes is scheduled to go on trial in May. Read more about Frank Vennes in our book and keep up to date with the Vennes trial news at the Vennes Info blog.
