Team NH abandons Bachmann.......

[ABikerSailor]

St. Paul, Minn. — The New Hampshire staffers who left Republican Michele Bachmann's presidential campaign issued a statement on Monday harshly critical of Bachmann's national campaign staff.

A long-time New Hampshire political observer said the shake-up further hurts Bachmann's chances in the Granite State and adds to speculation that Bachmann's national campaign is falling apart.

In their statement Bachmann's former New Hampshire staffers say some Bachmann national campaign leaders treated them rudely, were dishonest, "and at times cruel."

They write that communication problems with top Bachmann leaders had been building since Bachmann got into the race in June, that even simple requests were ignored and that they went sometimes weeks with little or no contact with the national campaign.

They also accuse some national campaign leaders of being abrasive and discourteous towards "many New Hampshire citizens." They said several incidents happened during Bachmann's recent trip to New Hampshire that were serious enough for some members to depart the campaign, but they did not provide any specifics.

Interestingly enough, Bachmann refuses to acknowledge that the NH staffers have decided to leave.

I don't think she's got much longer in this race, and definitely not a whole year's worth.
