Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) suggests House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will stop at nothing to enforce party unity when it comes to health care reform. Asked on Fox News radio today how she thinks Pelosi will handle Blue Dog opposition to what the show host called “the federal government mandating medicare for everyone under the age of 65,” Bachmann said the speaker will either “beat” the conservative Democrats “to death”, “bludgeon them to death” or “buy them off” with earmarks.
No word yet on which method of coercion Blue Dogs would prefer.
