Bachmann Update

The National Republican Congressional Committee has pulled all ad buys from Michelle Bachmann's congressional district. More on this over at Politico.

And then there's Palin's $150,000 wardrobe bill. Seems the down-home, small-town duds of a mayor from Wasilla just don't cut it on the campaign trail.

The full shopping list for Ms. Sarah Palin and her family, according to records of the Federal Election Commission, looks like this:

• $75,062.63 spent at Neiman Marcus on Sept. 10.

• $41,850.72 to Saks Fifth Avenue in New York on Sept. 10.

• $7,575.02 to Saks Fifth Avenue in St. Louis on Sept. 10.

Makes a $400 haircut look reasonable.
