New Pro-Clinton 527 to Ding Obama in Ohio
February 20, 2008 9:33 AM

ABC News has learned that a group of Democratic politicos have set up a new independent 527 organization called the American Leadership Project (ALP) with the express purpose of helping Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-NY, beat Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, in Ohio, and possibly Texas and Pennsylvania as well.

Free from campaign finance rules, ALP will not be legally permitted to coordinate with the Clinton campaign, but it is clearly intended to help her.

The group is targeting through TV ads, mail, and phone communications white women under 50 in the Ohio area -- specifically Cleveland, Columbus, Youngstown, Charleston (WV), Wheeling- Steubenville, Zanesville, and Parkersburg (WV).

White men will also be a focus, and if there are any excess funds Latinos in Texas and middle class families in Pennsylvania will also be targeted.

1. It just might work
since 527's can't be influenced by the Clinton campaign.

:rofl:

2. right wing smear machine
thanks for pointing this out, I am forwarding it to my lists, so people
can see - this is all about Hillary, not what is best for the Democratic party.

Yet another reason to be done with the 28 year dynasty of Bush Clinton Bush Clinton.

Recommended. This should be on the front page.
