According to the Wall Street Journal, former Sen. Norm Coleman and Karl Rove are among big Republican names attached to a new political organizing group called the American Action Network.

The 501(c)3 with an attached 501(c)4 is also looking to bring in former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, Republican strategist Ed Gillespie and Republican donor Fred Malek.

WSJ says the group has “the goal of organizing grass-roots support and raising funds ahead of the 2010 midterm elections.” The group is still in its formative stage.

Currently, Coleman is working for the Republican Jewish Coalition.
