New Group Backs Reasonable Repubs

Item: New group backs 'reasonable' Republicans: Founders want to help 'less agenda-driven' candidates/Tom Hasslinger, Coeur d'Alene Press

More Info: A group of North Idaho business people and civic supporters has formed a new political action committee to financially support "reasonable" Republican candidates, the founders announced this week. Former Kootenai County Republican Central Committee chairman and current member Brad Corkill said the PAC, called North Idaho Political Action Committee, wasn't formed in reaction to recent election results or political groups, but to help "less agenda-driven" candidates get into office. "This group is not a bunch of ideologues," Corkill said during an interview with The Press. "We don't have an agenda. Our platform will be represented by the candidates we choose to support."
