Minnesota's congresswoman was back on camera Friday morning in an interview with MSNBC. She said voters are feeling "a lot of fatigue" as the GOP primary drags on.

The Minnesota Congresswoman told Bloomberg that money will be the factor that narrows the field. Bachmann has yet to endorse any of the remaining Republican contenders. She dropped out of the race for the White House after finishing sixth in the Iowa caucuses.

The Minnesota Congresswoman praised her former Republican presidential opponent during an interview on NBC's Meet the Press Sunday. Bachmann dropped out of the race for the White House in January and is now seeking another term representing Minnesota's Sixth Congressional District.

The GOP presidential candidate is campaigning in Iowa and feels the media fail to accurately portray her. The Huffington Post says Bachmann needs to win over Midwest voters to resuscitate her candidacy.

Republican House Majority Leader Eric Cantor was relatively silent on CBS's "This Morning" when asked whether Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann was "out of line" regarding her Muslim Brotherhood accusations. Cantor said, "I think that her concern was about the security of the country. So that's all I know." A number of Bachmann's colleagues, including House Speaker John Boehner and Sen. John McCain have criticized her claims.

Early estimates from the Secretary of State's office Wednesday indicate that approximately nine percent of Minnesota's eligible voters turned up for Tuesday's primary election, compared to the approximately 15 percent that came out for the primary two years ago. Possible factors in the disparity include the shift of the primary date from September to August for the first time, and the lack of any high-profile statewide contests.

A new survey of likely Republican voters shows the Minnesota Congresswoman trailing far behind.

The Minnesota Congresswoman told the Christian Broadcasting Network that she was doomed because the media focused on a few minor stumbles involving Elvis Presley and John Wayne. Bachmann dropped out of the race for the White House after a sixth-place finish in the Iowa caucuses. She formally endorsed Mitt Romney for the Republican nomination Thursday.

U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann will soon be looking for a new press secretary. Becky Rogness, the Minnesota Republican's press secretary for the past three years, announced with "great sadness" Wednesday that she is moving on.
