As part of her last speech to the Iowa Caucus, Michele Bachmann returned to her evangelical-courting ways:

“We are surrounded by a cloud of witnesses of generations who have gone on before. Going back to the time of William Penn who came to this country to bring the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ, to the time of the pilgrims who came here also to share the gospel of Jesus Christ, who stated that they willingly laid down their lives, literally as stepping stones, so that the next generation would prosper and know religious liberty.

She also vowed to stop “the crown jewel of socialism”: healthcare reform.
