1. Truly hypocritical! GOP Progress for America has raised $35M--most of it
in the last month, and set up to compete with the Media Fund. This is total PR bullshit. The FEC has put limitations on 527's, but they will not take effect until 2005.

Nothing will be done in this cycle, and they know it! The Democrats have outraised them with the 527's so far, but the GOP has shifted into high gear.

The feckless media fails to point out that the "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" ads are false, unlike the Moveonpac ads against Bush, which are harsh, but true! The media gives equal weight to both sides, rather than doing their jobs and checking the "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" claims. They are, in a word, complicit, in making this story as big as it has become.
