Which Millionaire Fat Cats Are Backing the American Action Network's Ads Attacking Sen. Feingold?

I believe that these type of attack ads in other campaigns in other states are bankrolled by this same group that's why this is posted in GD. Who can confirm that?

The organizational details of the group, expected to be called the American Action Network, are still being worked out, but it is expected to contain both a 501(c)3 and a 501(c)4 component. In simpler terms, a 501(c)3 can advocate on policy matters while a 501(c)4 is an election arm.

Republican leaders expected to be affiliated with the group include former Minnesota Sen. Norm Coleman, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, former Bush adviser Karl Rove, Republican strategist Ed Gillespie, and Republican donor Fred Malek.
