http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1010/43210.htmlA slate of Republican doctors seeking House seats is benefiting from a group of deep-pocketed medical groups that are funneling thousands of dollars to their campaigns and providing support on the airwaves.
Organizations like the American College of Surgeons Professional Association, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the American Congress of OB-GYNs are putting their respective political action committees to work for Republican contenders and medical professionals like Larry Bucshon of Indiana, Nan Hayworth of New York and Joe Heck of Nevada.
The goal behind the giving, say those involved with the fundraising effort, is simple: to establish relationships who are most likely to land on key, health-related House committees that will have the biggest impact on the industry.
(industry is the key word here)
“They are giving to Republican physicians because they are in the best position to get those committees,” said one Washington-based GOP fundraiser.
In August, the American Dental Association spent more than $2,000 on a mail piece in support of Arizona Republican Paul Gosar, a dentist, saying that Gosar will “fight to repeal Obamacare.”
(as if dentists don't make enough money)
