Oh Karen, do you really believe that? I may not agree with anything that has come out of Michelle Bachmann's mouth but I do not believe she is looking for fame and power.

People who go into public service - whether that be a military career or a political/policy making career - do it for the same reasons - love of country, a desire to service the country, a passion for the career.

And they believe they can do it better than someone else.
