To many Republicans, the liberal activist organization MoveOn.org is a
political boogeyman that they hope to chase off with new restrictions on
so-called 527 groups. But the pursuit may turn out to be fruitless. Like

midterm elections through advertisements, voter drives and issue fights,
MoveOn.org has already figured out what it thinks is a better, and less
controversial, way to spend its millions.
