Earlier this week, my website Right Wing News put out a report called 50 Million Down The Tubes: How 17 Conservative PACs Are Spending Their Money.
That report was based on 170 pages of research I had commissioned into
how conservative PACs are spending their money and the numbers of the 10
groups on the bottom were so bad that I was genuinely shocked, which
doesn’t happen very often.
Just in case you’re wondering, those bottom 10 PACs you’re looking at spent $54,318,498, but only $3,621,896 of that money went to candidates via direct contributions or independent expenditures on their behalf.
Some people have asked why we even looked into this, especially since some of these groups are generally well thought of conservative groups that endorse great grassroots candidates.
