UPDATE: Ian proves his brilliance once again. Read the whole, devastating thing, but remember this powerful money quote:
Now the problem here is that MoveOn has been a very effective proxy for a long time, running ads that say things the Democrats can't.Every time they try and act as a proxy in the future what Republicans will say is "MoveOn are a bunch of extremist who were condemned by a bipartisan motion in the Senate." Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant to damage a proxy like that. Can you imagine Republicans ever doing that to, say, the NRA.
Democrats who don't hate you are as follows. Remember this list, in the coming months. These are representatives who don't hate populism, and probably hold more of the values you do that the rest of them:
Senate Resolution 315 (to condemn MoveOn)

Biden (D-DE)

I'll give Obama and Biden a pass, this time, for just sitting it out. Although I do think it's rather cowardsly.
