DFA Won’t Pull Their Health Care Ads Attacking Mary Landrieu. Jane Hamsher reports: In response to the Washington Post article this weekend indicating that Obama had "expressed his concern over advertisements and online campaigns targeting moderate Democrats," Democracy for America's ad atttacking Mary Landrieu was singled out.
I asked Charles Chamberlain of DFA for a response:
For the record, Democracy for America, will not be pulling back our ads.
If we do anything because of it, DFA will expand the campaign now we know they're running scared enough to demand we stop.
There's a bit more at the link. Long and short, when the democrats whine, that means you got their attention. Time to double up.
I was heartened by the DFA response. Fuck Obamco - they're not producing for us.

JDM: I hear you.
Dr. Monkey: Exactly. When they complain, twist harder. GMB

Maybe other progressive groups will do the same--then we'll actually get progressive leadership instead of this give-the-repugs-everything "democratic" party.
Give 'em hell, DFA!

Exactly, dguzman. Nows the time to put even more pressure....and double up with every additional complaint. GMB
