Michele Bachmann takes questions from Charles Krauthammer, Dan Balz and Stephen Hayes.

"In some respects, the 2008 race, which John [Heilemann] helped chronicle, was so uplifting. And it was. This one -- divide by negative one (-1) on this one. This one is going to be as nasty and expensive as we ever had," Howard Fineman said on MSNBC's "Hardball." PREVIOUSLY:

This thing just didn't bubble up out of nothing. We now find out George Soros money is behind this, and there's no doubt in my mind that the White House is behind this.

"A significant majority of the American people believe that the country is not moving in the right direction. That is never a good place to be going into reelection whether it’s your fault or not your fault. It’s almost sometimes irrelevant," VP Joe Biden said on Thursday.

"I think it expresses the frustrations that the American people feel," he said Thursday. "People are frustrated and the protesters are giving voice to a more broad-based frustration about how our financial system works."

"And so, Bill, the answer -- the question then is, will Congress do something? If Congress does something, then I can't run against a do-nothing Congress. If Congress does nothing, then it's not a matter of me running against them, I think the American people will run them out of town. Because they are frustrated."
