The Note picks up the MoveOn story
And adds some interesting details:
As of December 31, 2002, the last time that MoveOn's PAC disclosed its financial health, it had a little more than $256,000. LINKIt can't use its (c)4 money — however much it has — to influence federal elections, and it somehow has to erect a firewall between how the (c)4 account spends money and the PAC's activities.
MoveOn's Wes Boyd told ABC News this week that the group employed four people.
The PAC's director is Zack Exley, who, as the AP Notes, has been a consultant to the Dean campaign on its web efforts.
Exley's influence over the MoveOn PAC — an entity legally capable of influencing federal elections — and his work for the Dean campaign — raised heckles from Dean's opponents.
A Dean campaign insider told ABC News that Exley has no influence, nor had any input, on their MoveOn strategy.
Of course, anonymous campaign "insiders" are always known for their honesty and objectivity! (If you believe that one, there's a bridge I'd like to sell you).
