But that hasn’t stopped the 6^th District Republican from putting the “for sale” sign outside her office and raking in $843,079 from political action committees through Oct. 15 in this election cycle—at least $182,255 of which came from lobbyists, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

Bachmann sits on the House Financial Services Committee, and the bulk of her corporate PAC money comes from — you guessed it — the financial industry. And while she voted against the Wall Street bailout, as her new ad notes, she has blamed the financial crisis on “hyper-regulation” of the financial industry (as well as poor people) and pledged to release the shackles of federal regulation from them. As part of her solution for getting money back into the system, Bachmann has called for eliminating the capital gains tax, which would benefit chiefly investors in stocks, bonds and real estate.
