I'm about ready to get off the MoveOn.org mailing list. The "Senate Wars" ad based upon the Star Wars theme is a complete joke. Looking back, the best ads put out by MoveOn.org were created by the members, not the people who run the organization. The
Bush in 30 Seconds contest was GREAT. Remember the "Child's Play" ad?
Perhaps the second best thing put out by MoveOn.org was from another contest held at
bushin30years.org. The winner created a flash presentation pointing out that a NYC police officer pays 6.2% in social security tax while a rich CEO earning 1,000,000 only pays .56 percent. It continued to say there would be no "crisis" if everyone paid their fair share. Of course, the only people to see the flash presentation were members of the MoveOn.org mailing list. The rest of the nation is forced to watch the "Senate Wars" ad on TV.
I wish MoveOn.org would stop acting like a top-down corporation and start utilizing their members to create ads. The Bushin30Seconds.org contest proved that the netroots talent is much greater than anything they can create on their own.
