MoveOn moonbats need new ad executive

The one they have really sucks at market research!  From Politico:

A series of new MoveOn.org radio advertisements looks like they could backfire, big-time.  (Don’t they all? – Ed.)

The liberal group is up with ads against six House Republicans attacking them for their support of offshore drilling. Problem is: most of the targets represent energy-rich districts where drilling is viewed favorably, to put it mildly.

One target, Rep. Mike Conaway (R-Texas), represents a west Texas district where the discovery of oil in the 1940s created wealth throughout the region, and the energy industry has since dominated the region’s economy.

And four of the six GOP targets hold heavily Republican seats and aren’t even facing credible challengers this election.

D’oh!

The National Republican Congressional Committee also wasted no time in responding to the ads.

“We wholeheartedly endorse this colossal waste of funds,” said NRCC spokesman Ken Spain. “Not only is MoveOn.org’s anti-drilling position out of step with 70 percent of Americans, but a member like Mike Conaway who represents the Texas oil patch will probably see his approval rating surge upward as a result of these ads.”

Heh.

I’m willing to cut Morons.org a little slack here.  I mean, they are a bunch of leftist commie pinkos, so advertising and capitalism and stuff like that are as foreign to moonbats as French is to Obama (“merci beaucoup!”).
