A year ago, the liberal group America Coming Together was on the cutting edge of national politics, spending tens of millions of dollars on a massive voter-mobilization project in every presidential battleground state.
The dream was that ACT -- heavily funded by billionaire George Soros -- would play a decisive role in getting Democratic nominee John F. Kerry elected president and then remain in business as a permanent force in liberal politics.
Steve Rosenthal, who launched America Coming Together to mobilize voters for Democrat John F. Kerry, said maintaining momentum after the election proved to be harder than expected. Billionaire George Soros's heavy funding of the group ended after the election. Steve Rosenthal, who launched America Coming Together to mobilize voters for Democrat John F.

Instead, the group this week began sending e-mails to most of the 28 people who make up the remaining ACT staff warning that their paychecks would stop at the end of August. All the state offices have been, or are soon to be, closed.

Hmm..Closing shop to avoid comments/critizism from FEC and/of Federal Courts?

Considering the Theresa is unlikely to give him the real thing, can you be sure he doesn't?
Thanks for posting. Thanks for the ping. Great thread.
Oh my heart is breaking!.........NOT!
"Soros and his close associate -- Progressive Corp. Chairman Peter Lewis -- together put $38.5 million into ACT and the Media Fund. With this seed money, the two organizations collected $196.4 million, enough to set up voter mobilization programs in every presidential battleground state and to flood the airwaves with pro-Democratic commercials in the early spring of 2004 when Kerry's campaign was broke."
What they fail to tell us is that leftist attorneys took 150 million in fees, salaries were 5 million and graft took up the other 41 million.
ACT, Moveon and these other leftist organizations are nothing more than leftist lawyer businesses that take money from their flock of sheep and put it in their pockets.
You gotta love it.
The same actors will be back together again in 2008, loaded with wheelbarrows full of fresh cash, a new name and carrying HILLARY! signs.
Hillry will not be pleased!!!
Are you saying George Soros uses people? Gosh!
They could get a loan or two from the boys and girls club.
Another Commie Front Company Disbans.
It seems that democrat activists exist to keep a paycheck. It's not the issues they work on that drive them forward.
Ha Ha!
Maybe Rush can pay them to run his commercials.
Reminds me of those museums that open in cities, receive gushing reviews, and then have to charge admission before closing their doors because no one visits.
