4. Me too. I can understand the Clinton supporters feeling of betrayal.
But MoveOn was never unbiased ... it's all about power of the masses.

Hillary's netroots support has been weak forever. So, it really wasn't a vote as much as it was an affirmation.

12. My daughter went to school with the founders' son (they are both in college now)

and so I've always liked them.

They were there, when no one else was.

It appears that some have forgotten.

13. I used to, also, until this fiasco of endorsing Obama without my...
input in any way! I was with them since their inception and have given them plenty of funds for the different campaigns; but I was not allowed to vote, nor even was informed about, the poll or ballot or whatever they are calling it now!

I am pissed that I wasn't given the opportunity to vote, either with a ballot or a poll!!

Why wasn't ALL of Move On members allowed to participate in this polling or balloting???

I resigned from Move On last night because of this: ALL members should have been given the chance to vote, not just the 10% that they chose! So NOT all 3 million members endorsed ANY candidate, because we were not given the opportunity to do so!

That is why those of us who didn't get to vote are pissed and a lot of us have unsubscribed from Move On!
