Matt Rhoades, Mitt Romney's campaign manager, is one of the founders of America Rising.
Hunkered down with laptops and legal pads in the business center of a suburban apartment building, the young guns at the newest super PAC in town could pass for a bunch of mathletes preparing for the next competition.
It's not much of a war room, but who cares? After an election cycle in which slick Republican super PACs like American Crossroads and Restore Our Future were panned for spending hundreds of millions of dollars on television ads that failed to move the needle, America Rising is a leaner, meaner outfit with one mission and one mission only: opposition research on Democrats.

It's already going head to head against the Democratic opposition research group, American Bridge, in the raucous Virginia governor's race, matching every attack on Republican Ken Cuccinelli with an equally vicious missive against Democrat Terry McAuliffe.

The tactics of those with no ideas. They should spend time learning about conservative principles and they could see a different result.
Probably using it as cover to go after conservatives again.
BINGO!!! They have ALL kinds of dirt on Democrats that is NEVER USED!!!! Obama would NOT be President if they had!!
Why didnt he do that in 2012 then?
Although not stated they will use their opposition research to attack conservatives running against the Rino’s.
For those who would say how do you know this...I will say they worked for romney...need I say more.
Dig up dirt on Democrats all you want, GOP-e. I’m not fooled. You only go after conservatives anyways,.
Way to go! Now, THAT'S the way to persuade Americans to vote for your latest RINO!!!
Attacking dems on “dirt” doesn’t work. Just look at McAulliife vs Cuccinelli.
I'm sure many of those drive-bys are drug abusers, drunks, gamblers, deadbeat parents, cheating spouses, ...
They can dish the dirt on conservatives, but I bet they can't take it themselves.
Focus on Hitlery, Cuomo, and Biden. In that order. Dark horse demon rats: Elizabeth Warren and Chris Christie.
They already wallow in filth; whats a little dirt?
Con man extraordinaire. A truly repulsive vermin..............
McAwful pretty much is the poster boy for “Clintonism” isn’t he?
The headline made me think they were digging up dirt on DemocRAT Matt Rhoades.
Bad example, or maybe an unintentionally honest one. Article today in the Washington Examiner (see Drudge) says the VA governor's race is now McAuliffe's to lose. It says Cuccinelli is like 8 points down. So the GOP-e ought to stop this head-fake stuff to try and get the grass-roots Conservatives back on their wagon.
Hell, even if it’s used, Democrats tend to take it as a badge of honor (Wiener is only the latest example of the proposition that liberals are incapable of being shamed).
Rhoades and the GOP-e HATE grassroots conservatives and all we stand for.
