Dear Friends:
We appear to be witnessing an October surprise here in MN-06 and Congresswoman Michele Bachmann needs your help now – before the reporting period ends on Wednesday, October 15th.
I know that the conventional wisdom has been that the Bachmann seat would be one of the safer Republican seats this year. And, for good reason: for months, things have looked extraordinarily good, particularly thanks to strong financial support from people like you.
In contrast, our opponent’s fundraising has been somewhat anemic. And, his inability to raise much on his own helped to ensure that outside money would find other more promising races to fund.
Apparently, he’s only been biding his time.
He released his 3rd Quarter report today and his fundraising has picked up phenomenally. In fact, in the five-week period between filing of the pre-primary report and the end of September, he raised $312,560. That’s double what he raised in the five-week pre-primary period.
In fact, it far exceeds anything he raised in any of the full quarters this cycle.
He’s already attracting outside money. Alliance for a Better Minnesota – a liberal front group – is running television ads smearing Michele Bachmann’s record. And, the NRCC is reportedly shifting money to cover Michele Bachmann’s race.
A Republican victory in Minnesota’s Sixth District is far from a done deal. In fact, this race has become the last line of defense for Republicans.
It can still be a strong win – but we need your help and we need it now! Please go online and make a secure online donation at www.michelebachmann.com or FedEx your contribution to:

The end of the Pre-General Reporting Period is Wednesday, October 15th. We need your help to make this a strong one and keep the 527s and DCCC from pouring millions into this race in a final push to turn it from Red to Blue.
Please do not hesitate to call me at 651-735-7512 if you have any questions. Thank you for your prompt reply.
Sincerely,
Zandra Wolcott
Finance Director
Bachmann for Congress
A HUGE amount of money has been pouring into this campaign this past week, and with the polling damn close it is impossible to tell what might happen in the traditionally republican 6th district.
Bachmann always seemed to be a guinea pig for the republican party. They trot her out to test a new line of attack and see if it sticks. But her most resent anti-American shtick might lead to the end of her political career .
