The latest 527 group to emerge includes 10 Nobel Prize winners. "Scientists for Change" will give lectures critical of the Bush administration in 10 contested states. They claim the Bush administration has misused and ignored science. Unlike the more famous 527s like MoveOn.org and Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, the scientists will get by on a paltry $100,000 budget. You'd think they could raise more money. After all, fundraising ain't rocket science. (NYT)
