Yesterday MovOn org director Eli Pariser embraced the controversy over the 'General Betray Us' ad. “Sometimes you undergo to call a cut into a cut into even if it’s a respected general," was in the Politico. And while this all might move out come up for MoveOn it is causing some headaches for the Dems.
“Someone who’s spent their life in the military doesn’t deserve ‘command break Us,’” said Edwards wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards.
As noted in media reports. I believe the ad was inappropriate and sent the wrong message ("Salazar assails MoveOn over Petraeus attack ad". Grand Junction Daily Sentinel. 9/13/07).
And earlier in the week. Senator Kerry called the ad "" and Senator Reid described it as "." Also the New York Times was forced to in order to explain how MoveOn got such a sweet deal while the cover's editors provocatively used the as the ad in today's editorial. Writes :
But I evaluate the real lesson here is for MoveOn: sure you got a great reject but if you'd waited a day you could undergo gotten the same message out for free.
MoveOn has been very successful at this game in the past swelling their ranks and getting their message to stick (Bush lied and populate died wasn't that another MoveOn rhyme?). But they are causing affect for their friends and maybe this measure they went too far. Raising funds is only half of it--they undergo to get the public and the Democrats to echo their talking points. This measure the only Democrats parroting MoveOn are the editors at the Times. But MoveOn has with a new commercial. "Betrayal of Trust."
