Bachmann has lost all her paid NH staff.
Will she be in the next debate?
She seems to have trouble keeping staff. Any explanation known to you?
She has no money.
I reckon that’s true. As much as I like her positions, we know that it’s money, not how clever you are in debates, that determines who gets voted off the island, and by when.
IF you'd rather NOT be pinged FReepmail me.
IF you'd like to be added FReepmail me. Thanks.

It’s the way it is and Gov. Perry is working as hard as he can to build his funding power because he’s had to fight the GOP establishment before. The Bush-Rove-Hutchison Machine tried to take him out in the last Texas gubernatorial primary. Perry prevailed but it took a lot of money to run against their backers. Then Perry had to run in the general against a Democrat heavily backed by trial lawyers.
The teachers unions (all unions), trial lawyers as well as establishment GOP are working to block him. The green movement and the EPA have a target on his back BIG TIME. He’s gone after all these groups and has plans to go after them again once in the White House. Romney will NOT.
Anyone who understands how Romney is going to muscle/money his way into the nomination knows that they need to put their money on Perry. He is the only conservative that can STOP Perry.

Perry already did stop Perry.
He is the only conservative that WANTS to STOP ROMNEY!!
Fixed it again.
Bump!
Thanks. I figured lack of money was her problem. It would help if she dropped out. The remaining candidates would have more time to explain their positions.
I agree.
Too many acts in this 3-Ring Circus.
My explanation is that she's a little crazy--enough so to be impossible to work for.
This has been going on since her first days in Congress. Counting acting chiefs, I think she's on her eighth chief of staff in five years.
I vaguely recall hearing a similar story.
Money, money, money.
All the money in the world cannot buy the one thing voters are looking for today. A believable MESSAGE.
