After reporting yesterday that the Virginia-based group Americans for Job Security is now spending $1 million on tv ads in support of Rick Santorum, the Philadelphia Daily News has an editorial today asking Santorum who owns him:
...Santorum doesn't seem too concerned about who is behind Americans for Job Security, a Virginia-based anti-tax group that refuses to identify contributors. He declined to tell one of our reporters whether his financial backers should step out of the shadows. How discreet.
If supporters of Americans for Job Security want to step into our state and influence our elections - fine. Just have the guts to tell Pennsylvania voters your name as you send your checks.
As for Sen. Santorum, he should remember he owes the voters of this state a lot more than he owes some slippery little front group.
