The US Chamber of Commerce's Multimillion-Dollar Attack Plan | The Nation
"If you live in a state where a competitive race could help tip the balance in the Senate this fall, you’ve almost certainly seen ads like these, laden with menacing theme music, light on the facts and funded by the US Chamber of Commerce. The nation’s largest business lobby is showcasing bold ambitions this year in an effort to build on gains made in the 2010 midterms, when at least $33 million of Chamber advertising helped push the nation dramatically rightward. The group began placing ads in swing districts as early as November 2011. Since then, it has rolled out a campaign aimed at influencing at least fifty House and eight Senate races, and according toPolitico it has set a goal of $100 million in spending for this electoral cycle."

Fight Rove's big money bid for a 2012 Senate takeover
"Rove motivated the attendees to cough up millions more by telling them of the millions he's raised to use against "the bad guys" not to elect Mitt Romney, but to get Barack Obama out of the White House. It's not just the White House, though, he's got his sights on the trifecta: White House, House, and critically, the Senate."

Is Ralph Reed Still Exploiting Evangelicals for His Clients?
"Ralph Reed, my very favorite faux-Christian unindicted co-conspirator, con man par excellence, obviously still has real pull in the upper levels of the Republican Party, allegedly because of his super duper database of evangelical voters - and his superPAC. I have to wonder if he has something to do with the GOP plank calling for no minimum wage in the Marianas Islands in the Republican platform?"
