Bachmann’s been played from day one when she brought on Ed Rollins as campaign manager. She never had a chance.
She will have a tough time getting reelected. Fund raising is going to be a problem. She transferred big bucks from her congressional war chest and during her scorched earth campaign has pissed off the very people she is going to need to fund another congressional run.
Lastly, during the course of her campaign she demonstrated some character flaws that will be tough to overcome. The embellishment of her personal and professional accomplishments in addition to outright lies about the other candidates will haunt her. I just wish she would go away for a while, try and repair her image and come back with more realistic goals.
