Bachmann's White House bid under Tea Party banner

By Emmanuel Parisse (AFP) – 4 hours ago

WASHINGTON — Tea Party favorite Michele Bachmann plans to launch her Republican presidential bid late on Sunday with a tour of key primary states Iowa, New Hampshire and North Carolina.

The Minnesota representative is returning to her roots to kick off her campaign in her native city of Waterloo, Iowa.
After stepping boldly into the 2012 White House race to challenge President Barack Obama by stealing the show at the first major Republican debate on June 13, Bachmann hopes to captivate voters in the three states she will cross over three days.

Her rival Sarah Palin, a Tea Party superstar who was the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee, has yet to announce her intentions about a possible presidential bid. In her absence, Bachmann hopes to score a hold on the conservative wing of the party.
