Bachmann: I am a serious presidential candidate

By Jamie Klatell - 12/16/11 12:12 AM ET

Rep. Michele Bachmann (Minn.) showed a flash of frustration with her opponents at the Republican presidential debate on Thursday.

The GOP front-runner, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, sparked her reaction when he said, "Sometimes Congresswoman Bachmann doesn't get her facts very accurate."

Bachmann asked the debate moderator for a rebuttal and went after her competitors for not taking her seriously.

"This isn't just once, i think it's just outrageous to continue to say over and over throughout the debates that I don't have my facts right, when it as a matter of fact, I do," Bachmann said. "I am a serious candidate for the President of the United States, and my facts are accurate."
