BrockÂ’s Anti-McCain Hate Factory Implodes
2008-06-02
With barely a whimper a few weeks after its big launch, David BrockÂ’s much-hyped Progressive Media USA has collapsed, thrown under the bus by Team Obama.

Two weeks ago the ambitious 501(c)(4) group, which vowed to spend $400 million trashing John McCain, quietly announced it would "dramatically scale back its efforts in deference to the wishes of the [Democratic] partyÂ’s presumptive nominee," the Washington PostÂ’s Chris Cillizza reports.

So much for BrockÂ’s claim that the George Soros-sponsored group would be independent and nonpartisan.
Being utterly Clinton-tainted, I can see why the Obama people would react to this like a vampire reacts to garlic.

#4  $40M not $400M

also, the 'wishes of the..nominee' were thatthe $$$ should go to the nominee first, not to 501(c) groups until the nominee's pot was fill
