Ooh, Catfight!
from The Hill:

Top Bachmann aide goes after Palin for not being 'serious'

A high-profile ally of Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) went after Sarah Palin on Tuesday, previewing what could be a contentious rivalry on the 2012 campaign trail.

Veteran GOP strategist Ed Rollins -- who has signed up to advise Bachmann's presidential campaign-in-waiting -- criticized Palin, the former Alaska governor, for lacking seriousness since serving as the Republican vice presidential nominee in 2008.

"Sarah has not been serious over the last couple of years," Rollins said on Fox News personality Brian Kilmeade's radio show. "She got the vice presidential thing handed to her. She didn’t go to work in the sense of trying gain more substance. She gave up her governorship."

Bachmann has publicly been gracious toward Palin in public, but Rollins's comments indicate that there could be more sniping between the two Tea Party favorites if both decide to enter the presidential race.


Can a tweet from Her Highness be far behind?
