Pro Edwards spending in Iowa will exceed spending by Obama and Clinton

There is a 527 group spending money on television ads for John Edwards because he has not taken special interest money. 

The group is the Alliance for a New America headed up by Edwards 2004 Campaign Manager.  (Political Nepotism?  Sure  Normal stuff?  You bet)

In a paradoxical way, Edwards is getting special interest money indirectly from a special interests against special interests!

Critics are charging Edwards to tell this group to stop paying for these TV ads, but Edwards claims that he has no association and no control over the group.  I suspect that Edwards will not protest too much unless his early warning campaign medical id triggers a red alert that his lack of action is creating a backlash.  I doubt that will happen and in the meantime, he'll benefit from more tv ads than anyone.
