Michele Bachmann's adversaries and media detractors will come up with any excuse to attack her.
In fact, they don't even need an excuse.
One supposedly "conservative" media outlet broke the big story that she occasionally gets migraine headaches – as if this would be some kind of disqualifier for a presidential candidate.

Millions of Americans, many of them holding positions of responsibility, get migraines and still manage to cope. And Bachmann doesn't seem to be folding either as a renegade member of Congress or as a formidable candidate for president because of her headaches.
Let me put it this way: I'm sympathetic to Michele's malady as I would be about anyone I truly care about. But what I love about Michele Bachmann and care about much more is the fact that she gives bad people headaches. And that's why I think she is a legitimate, front-running candidate for the presidency – maybe the very best person in the race for the GOP nomination.

Does she get headaches?

Sure. We all do.
But the truly great and principled leaders give more headaches to America's detractors and adversaries and underminers than she will ever get.
We need that kind of person in the White House as soon as possible.
What am I talking about?
Bachmann led the fight in the House of Representatives to do the only thing Republicans could have done in this session of Congress to stop the Barack Obama juggernaut to destroy the constitutional foundations of America and its economy – namely freezing the debt limit. She was steadfast, determined and never compromised that position despite overwhelming pressure from the media, from Democrats and even her own party leaders. I can tell you from firsthand experience, Bachmann gives Obama headaches. She gives Harry Reid headaches. She gives Nancy Pelosi headaches. And she gives John Boehner and the Washington Republican establishment headaches. I love that about her.

Bachmann is making a cornerstone of her campaign for the presidency securing our borders. And she's not just saying it because this is an election year. She's saying it because she believes it, has always believed it and will always believe it – deep down where convictions are formed. She's not going to compromise on this issue any more than she would on her other principles – ever.
Bachmann is pro-life and pro-marriage, not because you have to be to run for the Republican nomination, but because these issues define the very core of who Michele Bachmann is. You can count on her knees never going wobbly.
Bachmann is a sweet, caring, loving human being who loves her fellow man and her country – and that's what motivates her to aspire to the presidency, rather than arrogant ambition. It is almost impossible not to like Michele Bachmann unless you are not a God-centered, flag-waving champion of all that made America great and good – or, unless you don't know her and accept the mean-spirited mischaracterizations of her opponents and a spiteful, ungrounded news media.

Headaches? Please. Give me a break.
Personally, I'm sick of Washington politicians who give me and most of America headaches.
Michele Bachmann is the kind of pain reliever we need in the nation's capital.
No one whispering about Michele Bachmann's migraines is the least bit concerned about her health or her limitations. Let's face it. They consider her a headache. They don't fear she will ineffective. They fear she just might just be too effective.

So make up your own mind about Michele Bachmann. Does she scare you or threaten you or make you uncomfortable like she does the business-as-usual political establishment in Washington or the media gatekeepers in New York?
They're more concerned about the pain they get inside their own thick skulls every time they see her or hear her paint a picture of a more prosperous and free America.
