A new and improved Republican party in 2010 and beyond
 
Republican Leaders Forming New Political Group - Washington Wire - WSJ)

Quote:

At least half a dozen leaders of the Republican Party have joined forces to create a new political group with the goal of organizing grass-roots support and raising funds ahead of the 2010 midterm elections, according to people familiar with the effort.

The organizational details of the group, expected to be called the American Action Network, are still being worked out, but it is expected to contain both a 501(c)3 and a 501(c)4 component. In simpler terms, a 501(c)3 can advocate on policy matters while a 501(c)4 is an election arm.

Republican leaders expected to be affiliated with the group include former Minnesota Sen. Norm Coleman, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, former Bush adviser Karl Rove, Republican strategist Ed Gillespie, and Republican donor Fred Malek.

A House leadership aide told Washington Wire today that Rob Collins, a political operative and senior aide to House Minority Whip Eric Cantor of Virginia, is leaving Capitol Hill to be the executive director of the 501(c)4.

Eric Cantor's not leaving - his top aide is leaving.

At least that's how I read it - but now you've all got me confused.

I don't know if I don't understand you or if you didn't understand the article.

Arghhhh.....

Darryl, as it says in the origina; post, that Cantor's TOP AIDE is leaving, not Cantor himself...

RINO's trying to keep the Tea Party types from taking over 'their' party. COleman was spineless, Rove was the big gov pubbie mastermind, no thanks.
