[PAA-Discuss] Stop Karl Rove's Super PAC Power Grab

[Juli3 at aol.com]

Dear Friend,

Leave it to Karl Rove to  give corporations and the ultra-wealthy even more
power in our  elections.

Karl Rove and his Super PAC American Crossroads want to tear  down the thin
wall that prevents Super PACs -- which can accept unlimited,  easily hidden
contributions -- from coordinating directly with candidates and  their
campaigns -- which have strict contribution limits.

This limit  on coordination is one of the few remaining rules separating
our so-called  democratic elections from becoming a no-holds-barred,
corporate cash  free-for-all. So it's no surprise that Rove has asked the
Federal Elections  Commission (FEC) if he can get around it, by running
coordinated political  advertisements, featuring candidates the PAC is
supporting.

The FEC is  supposed to issue a final ruling this week. I just submitted a
comment tell  the FEC to reject Karl Roves Super PAC power grab. You can
get the details  and send a letter  here:
