Shadowy GOP Group with Roots in VA Targets S.C. Dem

This week, a unknown Virginia-based conservative group founded by an operative with ties to Ohio and run by an official with roots in Kentucky will begin airing a major television ad campaign targeting a Democratic lawmaker based in South Carolina.

Few people in politics, beyond a tight cadre of Republican strategists, have ever heard of the outfit Citizens for a Working America. That's because the benignly-titled political action committee didn't formally exist until this September. Even if you were compelled to learn more about the organization, there wasn't much you would find. The group's no-thrills website describes it as "an unwavering advocate of those principles that together form the bedrock of American prosperity: free markets, economic growth, and job creation." There is, quite literally, nothing else.

The group's federal forms manage to reveal only slightly more. According to the Federal Election Commission, Citizens for a Working America filed its statement of organization on September 10, 2010. Because it occurred so recently, the group has not been obligated to list donors or expenses.

influence the coming elections. These bastards don't believe there's anything (or anybody) they can't buy.
