Will Michele Bachmann Run Against Amy Klobuchar?

She polls quite poorly against Klobuchar:

Michele Bachmann trails Klobuchar 56-39 and is extremely unpopular with voters in the state. Only 37% have a favorable opinion of her to 51% with an unfavorable one, and her deficit against Klobuchar with independents is a remarkable 26 points. She has basically no appeal beyond the Republican base and as a result it seems unlikely she'll ever have a much higher platform than serving in the House.

Via Public Policy Polling.

If Bachmann runs for Senate, it will be VERY difficult for establishment republicans to defeat her. The more interesting possibility is whether Bachmann will throw her hat into the ring to run against Al Franken in 2014.
