MoveOn Staffer Moves on to Kerry Campaign 1 hour, 51 minutes ago

By SHARON THEIMER, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - A strategist with MoveOn.org, a group that Republicans accuse of being too closely tied to Democrat John Kerry (news - web sites)'s presidential campaign, is leaving to work for Kerry.

Zack Exley will be the Kerry campaign's director of online communications and organizing. He was the MoveOn political action committee's special projects director, focusing on research and mobilizing MoveOn supporters, Eli Pariser, the PAC's executive director, said Wednesday.

President Bush (news - web sites)'s campaign last week filed a government complaint accusing the Kerry campaign of illegally coordinating political ads and other election spending with MoveOn.org and other pro-Democratic groups. Kerry, MoveOn and the others named in the complaint deny any wrongdoing.

The Bush campaign contends the groups are spending "soft money" — corporate, union and unlimited donations — in the presidential race despite a broad ban on its use in federal elections.

I'm trying to figure out how this fits with the FEC complaint.

dems: "All those phone calls...we were discussing hiring him. We weren't coordinating our attack ads."

Reps: "How much more tied can you get?!?"

FEC: "Al Sharpton gets matching funds."

"........President Bush (news - web sites)'s campaign last week filed a government complaint.........."

Nothing will be addressed and/or settled until the day after the Presidential Election.

Blame McNut.

Move-On sounds like a support group for people who have issues with constipation.

MoveOn is a sinister combination of the nasty, naive, underhanded and intellectually dishonest.

Her butt is too big for that. You should have said,

"All those people are planted right in the middle of Hillary's butt."

Agreed. BowelMovement.org is just a Hitlary PAC sporting partywide window dressing. Just as ugly, and just as dishonest.
