Can a Few Rich Men Make Change?

While "A Few Rich Men" like George Soros have funded 527 groups supporting John Kerry, business leaders "who have benefited handsomely from the policies of this administration and who would like to see George Bush re-elected" haven't supported conservative 527s. The November Fund, a 527 group created by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce "to raise alarms about the influence trial lawyers would have in a Kerry-Edwards administration," has only raised $150,000 on top of the Chamber's "seed money." But Bush-Cheney campaign manager Ken Mehlman says of the Business Industry Political Action Committee's get-out-the-vote effort, "They are doing more than I have ever seen them do."
