Pro-Tom Delay ad funded by Swift Boat Vets Bankroller
FactCheck.org is on top of this game:

Swiftly Defending DeLay


A somewhat misleading pro-DeLay ad is funded by $200,000 from a donor who also bankrolled the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.


A newly formed conservative group is running a TV ad in Houston implying that liberal billionaire George Soros is "the source" of an earlier anti-DeLay ad by liberal groups. The pro-DeLay ad is somewhat misleading. Soros gave the liberal groups early funding two years ago, but there's no evidence he funded the anti-DeLay ad.

However, the source of the pro-DeLay ad turns out to be a Houston homebuilder who gave $200,000 to air it, and who also was an early financier of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth in the 2004 presidential campaign.

2. Aren't they all?

All of them are connected. This local guy who used to be my town's mayor is now running for Frist's seat and he got a SBVT guy to help his campaign. I was so disgusted.
