Special interests is a generic term and people forget that special interests refers to something other than rich and powerful forces working against some vague notion of the American public and liberty. Special interests groups promote issues that are dear to many American people, whatever that issue may be. It is just that people associate it negatively, even though the very same kinds of people speak to congress about positions on issues that they also agree with.
