Michele Bachmann: "If they go it alone, I think they'll be really alone in November, 2010."

transcript from "Hannity," August 18:
HANNITY: I saw a headline, a preview on the Drudge Report that it's going to be a New York Times article this morning that the Democrats are willing to go it alone. If they go it alone, what does that mean politically for them?

BACHMANN: Well, if they go it alone, I think they'll really be alone in November, 2010, because the American people are very intelligent people. Members of Congress may not read these bills, the American people do read these bills and they won't let their representatives in Congress alone come November of 2010.

The House Republicans have taken this very seriously. We are listening to our constituents, we're holding town hall meetings. And we're hearing exactly what the Democrats are hearing and it's going to be a very tough time for them in November of 2010.

And what it says — again how effective real Americans can be in this forum, and that's why, like Winston Churchill said this is not the end, this is not the beginning of the end, this may not even be the end of the beginning.

We need to keep this up because President Obama told the House Republicans in a private meeting, even if he's a one- term president, he intends to go forward with his agenda. So the American people are forewarned. We need to keep our antenna up.
