The House is now under Republican control, which many political experts have expected for months leading up to Election 2010 Mediaite writes that one pleasant surprise that originated 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, are you 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 had been repetition of the Republican party line. Post resource – Chris Matthews to Michele Bachmann – Are you hypnotized? by Personal Money Store.
Michele Bachmann didn't want to participate within the witch hunt
Michele Bachmann perhaps did not want to spoil what had been going on since Election 2010 had been a Republican victory. Matthews has had her talk about Republicans a lot. She keeps saying that jobs and lower taxes are the most significant thing to consider now since "the American people have spoken" about what they want. However, Bachmann’s failure to even acknowledge Chris Matthews’ subpoena power question made for hilarious (some would say cringe-worthy) political television. Matthews is known as a commentator on shows like "Hardball." Michele Bachmann's responses were something he could not ignore because of this.
"Has somebody hypnotized you? Because no matter what I ask you, you give the very same answer," he said. Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, and others on CNBC were chuckling as he said this.
Stated she is ‘Not quite so tingly on your leg’
Once Sen. Michele Bachmann (hypnotized or not) realized she could no longer press rewind and still conserve face in the interview, she made reference to the American individuals "coming out of their state of hypnosis," which had been at least a partial recovery, suggested the pundits. She then stated one last thing to Matthews. She said, "I think people 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 when nobody understood what the tingly leg reference was about. This is why Matthews then explained the reference. Through the 2008 presidential election, Chris Matthews spoke about how he felt when Obama spoke. He said that he got a "tingle of excitement" when he heard Obama speaking. Matthews denies having used the word "tingle," however he does acknowledge having been excited.

Bachmann didn't want to take part within the witch hunt
Michele Bachmann maybe didn't want to spoil what was going on since Election 2010 was a Republican victory. 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. Chris Matthews' power was not even recognized by Bachmann. This made for political television that was quite humorous. Matthews is known as a commentator on shows like "Hardball." Michele Bachmann's responses were something he couldn't ignore because of this.
"Has someone hypnotized you? Because no matter what I ask you, you give the very same answer," his response was. Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, and others on CNBC were chuckling as he said this.
’Not quite so tingly on your leg’ was the reaction
Senator Bachmann recovered a little bit after saying that the American people are "coming out of their trance" while in the interview. Matthews then heard her say, "I think people 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." He did say he was excited that year though.
