Bachmann: 'People Don't Want Crony Capitalism'

GRETA VAN SUSTEREN, FOX NEWS HOST: Well, there's a big difference, though, at least in my mind, whether you do it because you really believe it's the right and you're just flat out wrong or you shouldn't have done it or whatever, and the other difference is whether you did it because you wanted a campaign contribution. And I'm curious which you think was the one here with the governor.

REP. MICHELE BACHMANN: Well, of course, I don't know the thoughts and the intents of the governor's heart. I have no idea what they are, nor would I speculate. But I think it's important to point out that this donor, like so many other of the governor's donors, received appointments, received political favors.

And I think that we're going to hear a lot more about that in the course of the campaign because this is what the American people don't want. They don't want crony capitalism. It infuriates them. We saw that with President Obama, when we saw over $500 million dollars go to Solyndra, who was a political donor of President Obama. It's no better when Republicans engage in that, as well. People don't want crony capitalism.
