Michele Bachmann Officially Suspends Her Presidential Campaign

Republican presidential contender Michele Bachmann announced that she will be suspending her campaign in a much-anticipated speech this morning. Bachmann, who performed poorly in the Iowa caucuses on Tuesday, had earlier canceled her campaign trip to South Carolina.


News of the suspension was widely expected in media following Bachmann’s dismal Iowa performance (she came in sixth place). Prior to the official announcement, CBS News reported:


A senior Republican official familiar with the congresswoman’s plans told CBS News partner National Journal that Bachmann came to the decision to effectively end her run, recognizing that “there was no viable way forward.”
