On Feb. 3, the American Crossroads organization announced the formation of a project to influence the outcome of GOP U.S. Senate primaries in the 2014 election cycle, according to a report on Politico.com.
American Crossroads is a non-profit organization co-founded by former White House adviser Karl Rove, who is viewed by many conservative political insiders as the unofficial strategist for the Republican establishment. The group will form a Super PAC – ironically dubbed the “Conservative Victory Project” – with the goal of helping establishment-backed primary challengers overcome the power of Tea Party voters, libertarians, and grass-roots conservative activists.
