The MoveOn Iraq Online Meeting Last Tuesday

The National Journal's "Hotline" blog notes the weird disparity in how MoveOn members scored Tuesday's Iraq debate. Overall, Barack Obama was judged the most likely to get the United States out of Iraq by 28 percent; John Edwards had 25 percent; Dennis Kucinich 17 percent; and Richardson 12 percent. But when you looked only at the votes of those who gathered at house parties to watch, rather than watching it on their own, Obama came in third with 19 percent. Edwards held the lead with 25 percent and Richardson surged to second with 21 percent. - Bill Richardson Log: Friday, April 13, The Albuquerque Tribune


- What should this tell the average politco? Were the solo MoveOn attendees loaded by certain campaign volunteers? Maybe that's too conspiratorial. I think the best explanation is down-home conversation among Democrats. Go with the "partying" MoveOn gatherings!
