Last year, Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minnesota, grabbed some headlines for a smooch with President Bush on the way out of House chambers after his State of the Union speech.

Apparently, she's positioned again, according to the blog, Politico. She's among a handful of "squatters," who arrive early to get a good seat near the aisle, and a chance to shake the president's hand, or whatever.
