"A MoveOn statement said Exley and the staff of all MoveOn entities have agreed that they will not be in contact through the election period to avoid the appearance of coordination, "even though federal election rules permit some forms of communication."

Looks to me like a big loophole within a big loophole. So what types of communication are permissible?
I just don't see the Dems being able to paint a connection where none exists, especially if the FEC rejected the Rep's much stronger evidence against MoveOn this spring. Only an idiot would think there is no collusion going on between the Dems & MoveOn or any of these other 527's. It reeks of collusion. I can't imagine they seriously want to use this tactic which would expose thier own far worse violations unless their game plan is any kind of diversion at any cost.

So IIRC, Dean was the "wonderboy" of internet fund-raising, and when he tanked, Kerry's people wanted his fat donor list in the worst way. There was a company involved who got Dean set-up and launched his online presence. They are connected with MoveOn...they created & operate their site too..secure donations online etc. They also did the same for I think Pelosi? The Dem Marjority?
It's been a few months since I read this information but I remember thinking it looked like something worth a deeper look beyond Googling. Maybe a connection there.
