527's in '06 Governor Owens, Pete Coors and Bruce Benson are hoping to help fund Republican victories next fall, according to the Denver Post [September 6, 2005, "GOP aiming its big guns at '06 races"]. From the article, "Gov. Bill Owens, brewery executive Pete Coors and former state Republican Party chair Bruce Benson have formed the political alliance - known as Headwaters Group LLC - which also is expected to aid the GOP in its quest to take back the statehouse in 2006. The potentially powerful fundraising coalition shows the high stakes of next year's elections, which are anticipated to be bruising and expensive. It is also one of the first concrete signs that Republicans learned the importance of such committees after the Democrats - who effectively used them last year - won the majority in the state legislature."
