Those are the three I would have said. I have heard pitches from Americans for Prosperity — try asking them a question about the government and how it works and you get hmmm but they are quick to make sure you know you can donate.

One guy that spoke to my women’s group, I would donate a penny to any group he was part of. He found his niche living off donations without knowing anything.

I feel the same way about Americans for Tax Reform and Freedom Works — get emails all the time asking for money along with several others.

You are not kidding if you see Norquist run away — feel 100% the same way.

Wondered how long it was going to take to see this happen considering some of the people running some of the organizations.

Monitor PACs and have noticed most of the new organizations spend more on fundraising and their own expenses then they give a paltry sum to candidates. My donations go to candidates because at least it is easy to find out what they are doing with the money.

I just saw this...Dick Armey is still pushing himself as ‘head of the tea party’ movement.
