Moving on
MoveOn.org is moving on after another humiliating defeat.
MoveOn, formed in 1998 in a failed attempt to prevent President Clinton's impeachment, kept its winless streak alive Tuesday when former Rep. Ciro Rodriguez went down to defeat against "right-wing Democrat" Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas in the party primary.
MoveOn had endorsed Mr. Rodriguez as "a true Democrat" who "would stand up to the Bush administration in Washington."
MoveOn's past efforts include campaigning for Al Gore and John Kerry for president, as well as stumping for Democratic majorities in Congress in the 2000, 2002 and 2004 elections.
The left-wing group announced yesterday that it is starting an advertising campaign to take back Congress by saturating TV for three months in five Republican House districts.
Meanwhile, the conservative Club for Growth was crowing yesterday because Mr. Cuellar was the first Democrat it had ever endorsed.
