MoveOn Continues to Raise Money for Chris Murphy’s Campaign
MoveOn, the liberal advocacy group, raised another $175,000 for Democrat Chris Murphy, bringing the group’s total investment in the Democratic candidate to more than $335,000 this cycle.
The recent flurry of donations for Murphy came in after the group sent a fundraising email penned by Massachusetts Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren.
“Just south of here in Connecticut, Chris Murphy is leading Linda McMahon by just a couple of points,” Warren wrote. “Chris is a strong leader who’s fought to get corporate money out of politics, to end the war in Iraq, and to make sure all Americans have access to decent health care. His opponent, on the other hand, has spent more than [$42] million of her own money glossing over her conservative record.”
Warren’s email also asks MoveOn members to donate to her campaign as well as that of Wisconsin Democrat Tammy Baldwin.
“If you can spare a few dollars to help put me, Chris and Tammy over the top, I’d be very grateful,” the email concludes.

Why is it that the Communist front organization endorse Cris Murphy. Could it be that the Democratic Party has been taken over by the extreme left and Communists.
Imagine a union backed organization out there raising money for a Democrat candidate….how about the Working Families Party….we know they backed Donovan to the end…do they support Murphy as well?
Surprise, surprise.
The Commies are supporting one of their own.
Today’s Democrat party isn’t the Democrat party of your father or grandfather. They wouldn’t recognize it, nor would they recognize people like Obama, Murphy, Pelosi, DeLauro, Esty or Larsen who are the face of the party.
Today’s Democrat party has been hijacked by ‘progressive’s (as they like to call themsleves…) who are really unreconstructed socialists; first cousins to the Marxist-Leninists who have been working toward the destruction of the United States for over 80 years.
This Geo. Soros-funded organization is an enemy of the United States- and Murphy knows it. Yet, he accepts their money.
What does that say about Chris Murphy?
Today’s Dems are exactly like those of our fathers in may respects.
This is what Obama cares about.
‘Cooling out the voters’ or ‘Telling the truth a little at a time’.

Hey Connecticut:
Wake up and smell the Socialism.
Note that the Communist Party USA in New Haven has endorsed Chris Murphy.
Wake up, Connecticut.
