Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) finally explained yesterday why Democrats don’t want her in office: They’re scared she’ll become the first female president.

“They want to make sure no women, no woman becomes president before a Democrat woman,” Bachmann said, “and so they’re doing everything they can to, I think, sabotage women like Sarah Palin, perhaps women like myself, or similarly situated women, to make sure that we don’t have a prominent national voice.”

Bachmann was speaking on Mike Gallagher’s radio show.

Bachmann recently said she would run for president, but only if God told her to.
