Craig Varoga, a longtime Democratic political operative, has formed a group \u2014 known as Patriot Majority PAC \u2014 with the specific goal of keeping tea party candidates out of office.<\/p>\n

“Americans need to confront the dangerous ideas of the tea party movement<\/strong> head on, without any fear, before they gain any additional traction in the legislative process or the 2010 elections,” said Varoga, who managed former Iowa governor Tom Vilsack’s 2008 presidential run.<\/p>\n

The idea behind Patriot Majority PAC is to pick 12 to 15 races where tea party-affiliated candidates are running then launch a barrage of television and radio ads<\/strong> (as well as online targeting) to keep them from winning. The funding, according to Varoga, will come entirely from individuals and thanks to a ruling in U.S. District Court last week the group will be able to expressly advocate for the defeat of candidates.<\/p>\n

(Varoga also hopes to establish Patriot Majority as a clearinghouse for information — on the negative side of the ledger — about the tea party movement. “We are asking all Americans to join us and oppose the extreme tactics of the tea party and the dangerous ideas behind them<\/strong>,” he said.)<\/em><\/p>\n
