It Moved Me

David All, communications Director U.S. Rep. Jack Kingston, R-Georgia, Vice-Chairman of the House Republican Conference, reports that MoveOn.org's anti-war ads in the Congressman's district have proved a flop. All writes:

So I wanted to follow-up with you to give you the results of MoveOn.org's efforts... Drumroll please....

Amount of cash MoveOn.org spent to hire actors for the commercial: $20,000

Amount of cash MoveOn.org spent to purchase the b-roll film of UK soldiers which they called US soldiers: 5,000 pounds (see here).

Amount MoveOn.org allegedly spent in Georgia's first district on a media buy: $480,000 (see here).

And the results...

ZERO calls, emails, or letters resulting from the ad: PRICELESS

Has any political organization ever raised and spent as much as MoveOn with so little to show for it?

Whaddaya expect? They ran the ad in GEORGIA. If they'd done it in person, instead of on TV, they'd have been shot.
