Candidate Super PACs Surge Ahead In The 2012 Money Race

(Washington Post)
Until this month, Steven C. Roche was one of Mitt Romney's most trusted advisers, helping the former Massachusetts governor raise tens of millions of dollars in his long quest for the White House.
Now Roche has jumped ship to Restore Our Future, a "super PAC" dedicated to helping Romney win the presidency by raising unlimited funds from wealthy donors and corporations.
The move, first reported by the Center for Public Integrity, illustrates the rise of yet another money-raising vehicle for the 2012 elections: "candidate super PACs," which are emerging as de facto subsidiaries of the traditional presidential campaigns.
