MoveOn tells Dems: it’s our party now

just read and pay attention to that “top Democrat” at the end. He will be the first against the wall:

“In the last year, grass-roots contributors like us gave more than $300 million to the Kerry campaign and the DNC, and proved that the party doesn’t need corporate cash,” said MoveOn PAC Political Director Eli Pariser in an e-mail message.

“Now it’s our party: we bought it, we own it and we’re going to take it back.”

The message particularly hit McAuliffe, a Clinton-era holdover known for his fund-raising prowess.

“For years, the party has been led by elite Washington insiders who are closer to corporate lobbyists than they are to the Democratic base. But we can’t afford four more years of leadership by a consulting class of professional election losers.”
