Democratic Money Pours Into 'Super PACs' Three leading Democratic "super PACs" raised more money in September than they have in any other month this election cycle, officials said, underscoring the growing willingness of wealthy Democrats to bankroll groups whose very existence they had long opposed. Priorities USA Action, a group backing President Obama, will report raising $15.2 million in September, thanks in part to aggressive fund-raising by party leaders like former president Bill Clinton and Mayor Rahm Emanuel of Chicago, Mr. Obama's former campaign co-chairman. The group has already reserved millions of dollars in advertising for the closing weeks of the campaign. Majority PAC, which supports Senate Democrats, raised $10.4 million in September and has brought in an additional $9.7 million through mid-October, officials announced on Friday, a period during which the party's chances of holding a majority in the chamber appeared to be improving. House Majority PAC, the Congressional Democrats' super PAC arm, raised $5.9 million, a figure officials at the group said they were on pace to double this month "Democrats know that this race is even closer than we thought it would be and if we're going to close this deal, everybody has to get involved," said Bill Burton, a spokesman for Priorities. But despite fears that Mr. Romney's political difficulties in September would hurt his fund-raising, Restore Our Future, the super PAC backing his White House bid, brought in $14 million, more than in the past two months combined, and it began October with $16 million in the bank, according to disclosures filed with the Federal Election Commission on Friday. On Thursday, the group purchased $12 million for six days of television commercials, one of the largest such purchases this election cycle. The super PACs are required to file detailed disclosures with the Federal Election Commission by midnight on Saturday, documents that will shed light on the sources of the contributions and how much money the groups had on hand going into October. Early disclosures filed by Restore Our Future on Friday revealed that close to $4 million of the group's September contributions came from corporations, suggesting that businesses have begun to take full advantage of court and regulatory rulings that legalized unlimited corporate giving to independent political committees. Greenpoint Technologies, which contributed $250,000 to Restore Our Future, "provides turnkey VIP aircraft interiors for private individuals and heads‐of‐state clients," according to its Web site. Scott Goodey, the company's president and chief executive, along with his wife, Julie, have contributed at least $100,000 to the Romney campaign and the Republican National Committee. Penske Corporation, the Michigan-based transportation services company, contributed $250,000, bringing its total to $500,000. Individuals donors contributed $11 million to Restore Our Future in September. Much of it came from a few wealthy Romney supporters who are mainstays of the Republican super PAC world. The Texas home builder Bob Perry contributed $2 million, bringing his total giving to Restore Our Future to $9 million - more than 10 percent of the group's war chest this year. Stanley Herzog, a Missouri construction company owner, contributed $1 million, as did Robert McNair, the billionaire owner of the Houston Texans football team.
