Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann issued a news release Wednesday making it clear she has no intention of appearing on the next season of 'Dancing with the Stars.'
In full disclosure, I did win a polka dancing competition when I was in the tenth grade at my alma mater, Anoka High School in Anoka, Minn.," said Bachmann. "But, despite my tenth grade polka success and my lifelong love of ballroom dancing, the recent rumors are false. I will not be joining 'Dancing with the Stars.'
Bachmann said she will instead focus on cutting wasteful government spending, private sector job creation and repealing the Democratic-led health care overhaul.

Such a non story.
Indeed. A waste of space and bandwidth.
