By the way, a few letters sent to the biggest paper in Collin Peterson’s district sure wouldn’t hurt: http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/…..ail_id/48/

Key points:

– Swift-Boaters are behind these ads

– Arch-Blue Dog and public option for Mike Ross not only got his original political seed money from his own pharmacy business (http://www.ncpanet.org/members/pdf/digestprofile_ross.pdf), he also is a huge recipent of industry donations (http://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/industries.php?cycle=2010&cid=N00009571&type=C), which causes him to oppose the public option even though a majority of the folks in his own district want it (http://campaignsilo.firedoglake.com/2009/09/14/mike-rosss-district-is-evidently-not-in-arkansas/)

– American Future Fund & Iowa Future Fund, 501(c)(4) GOP Fronts Thu Apr 03, 2008 at 12:57:29 PM PDT
But the big money and dirty tricks aren’t confined to presidential politics this year.

American Future Fund (AFF) is running ads in support of Senator Norm Coleman (R-Minnesota) while Iowa Future Fund (IFF)is running ads against Governor Chet Culver (D-Iowa) and there has been speculation in the media as to who is behind AFF and IFF. The other day, Paul Kiel at TPM Muckraker posted about it as have the Des Moines Register and Minnesota Public Radio, among others.

Last week, Minnesota Democrats filed an FEC complaint against American Future Fund.

According to Stu Rothenberg at the Rothenberg Report, Republican operatives Ben Ginsberg and Edward T. Tobin III are also involved in IFF and AFF. Ginsberg, former counsel to the Bush-Cheney campaign, is a partner in Patton Boggs’s public policy and lobbying group. Tobin, former executive director of the Republican Governors Association, is a partner in Wilmer Hale’s fairly new Public Policy and Strategy Group.
