Kochhead to do for U.S. what she's done for Arkansas
Posted By Max Brantley on Fri, Jan 4, 2013 at 6:29 AM
She's been named national vice president for state operations for Americans for Prosperity, the front group financed by the Kochs to do nominal "education" work aimed at electing corporate stooge Republican state legislators to battle taxes, Obamacare and environmental regulation at the state level. Her Arkansas affiliate of the group, and allies, spent well more than $1 million to help produce the new Republican legislative majority in Arkansas. She'd held the national job on an interim basis previously, according to her Twitter feed.
