Capital Surprises

/p> p>The PAC, which is as-yet unnamed, is expected to have one of the richest startups on Capitol Hill, and ensures that Kerry will at least attempt to remain a political player in both the Senate, as well as the House. Leadership PACs are set up to provide donations to both national, as well as state and local candidates. Often, the PACs are used to gain political chits to call in later. For example, during the campaign, Sen. Harry Reid provided more than $4 million of his leadership PAC money to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, virtually ensuring his hold on his leadership position. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has a leadership PAC, HILLPAC, which operates in a similar manner. br> /p>
