Casino mogul Sheldon Adelson has donated $10 million to the Koch brothers efforts to elect Republicans and oust President Obama and other Democrats -- forging perhaps the most powerful, well-financed political fundraising machine of 2012.
Adelson donated the money last weekend during a Koch brothers fundraising summit in suburban San Diego. The private deal was confirmed Friday, according to the Associated Press and other news agencies.
Adelson has already contributed $10 million to Restore Our Future, which is the super political action committee that backs GOP presidential candidates Mitt Romney, and $5 million each to two organizations promoting House Republicans.
