Democratic "Civil War:" Nutroots Threatens Democratic Lawmakers
Ace of Spades HQ —
Democratic "Civil War:" Nutroots Threatens Democratic Lawmakers Remember, though, the media is only interested in "concern-trolling," as Allah called it, the "civil war" in the Republican Party between the pragmatists and the maximalists. The Democrats are still as united as ever. MoveOn.org is sending out emails today seeking more contributions for its campaign to defeat any Democratic senator who does not fully support Obamacare. Yesterday the left-wing activist group asked members to contribute "to a primary challenge against any Democratic senator who helps Republicans block ...

... the GOP towards a fiscal litmus test rather than a social one, it’ll actually end up expanding the tent by creating room for libertarian types who adamantly oppose expanding government while, for example, supporting civil unions or gay marriage. As for how it benefits the Blue Dogs, let Altmire connect the dots. Now that Virginia’s gone with the wind and NY-23 and Jersey are on the brink, they’ve obviously got more leverage on ObamaCare. No wonder MoveOn’s starting to grumble about primary challenges . Why, if I didn’t know better, I’d say this looked eerily like … a civil ...

... Meanwhile, Byron York points out that division among Democrats is at least as newsworthy:
MoveOn.org is sending out emails today seeking more contributions for its campaign to defeat any Democratic senator who does not fully support Obamacare. Yesterday the left-wing activist group asked members to contribute "to a primary challenge against any Democratic senator who helps Republicans block an up-or-down vote on health care reform." Today, MoveOn reports that it has received $2 million in pledges in less than 24 hours. "It's a clear sign of how angry ...

... in NY-23. I hope MoveOn’s threat to challenge Blue Dogs in the primaries is for real, just because I can’t wait to see how he’s planning to square the circle. Exit question: Emanuel, of course, was the architect of the Dems’ 2006 congressional takeover, a strategy based on running centrists in purple districts. Will his Republican counterpart next year have the same latitude?

... A few days ago, the left-wing activist group MoveOn.org began sending out emails seeking contributions to fund primary challenges against any Democratic senator who does not fully support “health care reform with a public option.” Now there’s an update: MoveOn executive director Justin Ruben says the group has raised $3,578,117 for the project and is thinking of new ways to punish errant Democratic lawmakers. ...

... and the more likely a Democratic Congress becomes. Why is it that when looking back at an election in which very little went right for Democrats, so many folks are seeing nothing but dread and doom for the G.O.P. Apparently, everyone agrees that for the party in power, unity behind a popular president is something of a security blanket. Everyone, that is, except George Soros and his minions: “MoveOn.org is sending out emails today seeking more contributions for its campaign to defeat any Democratic senator who does not fully support Obamacare ,” reported The Washington ...
