Michelle Bachman chickens out of the Tea Party to end all Tea Parties


That upcoming Tea Party convention of Republican (and Democratic!) activists lost two prominent speakers last Thursday-- the latest sign of factionalism and disagreement over how highlight the movement as an insurgent political force.


Republican Reps. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota and Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee canceled their appearances after being billed as speakers at the gathering. Ex-Governor Sarah Palin remains the headline speaker at the event.
