CCC

Blanton over at Redstate has the goods on one of the more shadowy groups that is an offshoot of the 527s Democrats set up. Legally identified as Campaign for a Cleaner Congress, the group is nothing more than one of the subsidiaries of American Family Voices, a 527 financed by labor unions before the 2004 election.

CCC works closely with the DNC on a number of issues (though that is supposedly illegal under McCain/Feingold campaign finance reform), has contracted with a number of former DNC opposition researchers to dig up dirt on Republicans, and then passes that material on to cooperative reporters.

No surprise then, that reporters treat the CCC as a nonpartisan source.
