Rick Santorum’s Iowa coalitions director, Jaime Johnson, is under fire from the Bachmann camp after the Des Moines Register revealed an email sent last summer questioning whether a woman could be president, reports the Huffington Post. Johnson wrote in an email, which he said was meant to be private: “The question then comes, ‘Is it God’s highest desire, that is, his biblically expressed will, … to have a woman rule the institutions of the family, the church, and the state?’”
Bachmann’s campaign has asked Santorum to issue an apology; on MSNBC, Johnson said the email was being blown out of proportion.
