MoveOn warns ‘We might have to pull the plug’

[SniperFire]

Here comes the implosion....


'MoveOn, a giant in the progressive political world and an early endorser of Barack Obama in 2008, warns that it might have to “pull the plug” on key campaigns to help Obama and Senate Democrats if its 7 million members don’t pony up with at least $5.

Without a rush of new cash, MoveOn says it will have to give up efforts to elect Elizabeth Warren in Massachusetts, help the recall fight against Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, and energize younger voters who’ve soured on Washington.

“It's like picking which of your kids you love the most. I just can't do it,” said MoveOn in an email plea. “If we can’t increase our budget, we might have to dramatically scale back or pull the plug on some of MoveOn’s most important election efforts this year.”

That says something about the fights they are "giving up on", and what THEY feel the outcomes will be.

sometimes u have to wonder where some of that soylndra money went. who isn't suspicious that some of it is still in a mattress waiting to be laundered back to Obama this summer?

Interesting. I wonder if this lack of funding is occuring with all progressive groups or just them.

It's a fundraising email.

Of course they say they need more money.

MoveOn is doing fine.

So they are lying to get money from people?

That doesn't seem right.

They're not lying.

The email doesn't say they're hurting for money - it says that if they don't raise enough money, they won't be able to spend it. Which is completely true - in fact, it's true of ANYTHING.

Actually, he makes money off advertisers.

They all say they need contributions to continue........

They rarely threaten to pull the plug. Either they are in deep shit or they are just in the liberal habit of using scare tactics to motivate people.

The "liberal habit"?

Have you ever read an NRA fundraising letter?

MoveOn - SourceWatch

MoveOn claims to have more than 5 million email addresses of political progressives, its members, in the United State (although only a fraction - typically well under 10% - respond to any given MoveOn email alert or appeal).

so... even at 7,000,000 members...10% is 700,000... which at $5.00 a head is $3.5 million.

not a huge amount as advertising, get out the vote efforts, etc. goes.
