Matthews says Bachmann had been in a state of hypnosis

The House is now under Republican control, which many political experts have anticipated for months leading up to Election 2010 Mediaite writes that one pleasant surprise that came from the night of Election 2010 is the CNBC interview between Matthews and victorious incumbent Sen. Michele Bachmann of the state of Minnesota. "Senator Bachmann, have you been hypnotized tonight?" is the question an exasperated Matthews asked after Bachmann continually ignored his questions about subpoena power and investigation into un-American activities. All the re-elected senator could muster was repetition of the Republican party line. Post resource – Chris Matthews to Michele Bachmann – Are you hypnotized? by Personal Money Store.

Bachmann desired no part of her very own witch hunt

Election 2010 had been an evening of victory for Republicans, so possibly it’s understandable that Michele Bachmann didn’t want to spoil the mood. As she told Matthews time and time again, the Republicans feel that "the American individuals have spoken" and that jobs and lower taxes are paramount now. The political television was quite humorous though since Bachmann would not even recognize that Matthews has power. Matthews is known as a commentator on shows like "Hardball." Michele Bachmann's responses were something he couldn't ignore due to this.

"Has somebody hypnotized you? Because no matter what I ask you, you give the very same answer," he said. Because he stated this, numerous on the CNBC set laughed a bit. This integrated Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow.

You are ‘Not quite so tingly on your leg’

Senator Bachmann recovered a little bit after saying the American individuals are "coming out of their trance" while within the interview. Matthews then heard her say, "I think individuals are thrilled tonight. I imagine that thrill is probably perhaps not quite so tingly on your leg anymore; I'm not sure about that."

The interview got over while nobody understood what the tingly leg reference had been about. This is why Matthews then explained the reference. Chris Matthews said that he got a "tingle of excitement" when Obama spoke through the 2008 presidential elections. Matthews said he was excited although the word "tingle" had been not used.

Matthews asks Bachmann: Are you hypnotized?

As was anticipated, Republicans seized control of the House on the night of Election 2010. The highest profile move featured Rep. John Boehner (R-Ohio) bumping Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) from the speakership Mediaite writes that one pleasant surprise that came from the night of Election 2010 is the CNBC interview between Chris Matthews and victorious incumbent Sen. Michele Bachmann of the state of Minnesota. After Bachmann dodged a question concerning subpoena power and Republicans going forward with investigations against Democrats for un-American activities several times, Matthews cut through Bachmann’s party-line reaction with perhaps the funniest line to come out of Election 2010: "Senator Bachmann, have you been hypnotized tonight?".

The witch hunt Bachmann assembled she desired out of

As she told Matthews time and time again, the Republicans feel that "the American people have spoken" and that jobs and lower taxes are paramount now. However, Bachmann’s failure to even acknowledge Chris Matthews’ subpoena power question made for hilarious (some would say cringe-worthy) political television.

’Not quite so tingly on your leg’ was the response

Whether or not Senator Michele Bachmann was in a trance, she came out of it quite well still. She said the American individuals are "coming out of their hypnotic trance," which helped her recover. Matthews then heard her say, "I think individuals are thrilled tonight. I imagine that thrill is probably maybe not quite so tingly on your leg anymore; I'm not sure about that."

The interview got over while nobody understood what the tingly leg reference was about. This is why Matthews then explained the reference. Chris Matthews said that he got a "tingle of excitement" when Obama spoke during the 2008 presidential elections. Matthews said he didn't say the word "tingle."
