Why Nancy won't condemn the latest MoveOn.org attack.

(Hint: it's about money.)

The United States Senate, bless their hearts, have condemned, 72-25, the general-bashing attack ad from MoveOn.org. Some Democrats voted for the condemnation and the measure passed 72-25, but some significant Democrats apparently fear MoveOn enough not to cross it.

Hillary, for instance, voted against the measure.

Such as Barack Obama and Joe Biden did not show up to vote.

The House of Representatives will not even bring a similar resolution to a floor vote. Of what is Nancy, the Speaker, afraid?
