The criticism of the National Republican Congressional Committee’s decision to pull money from Rep. Michele Bachmann’s (R-Minn.) race seems misplaced, since Bachmann herself has $1.37 million in cash on hand and since Republicans need to fund candidates who aren’t as well-funded, writes Jon Henke. Opposition among Hispanic and black voters to gay marriage, which is seen in the fight over a California ban to same-sex marriage, may result in fissures in the Democratic coalition in the long run, writes Sean Oxendine.
