Which Advocacy Group Would You Donate To For Healthcare Reform? MoveOn?
I know many on this board receive regular e-mails from Organizing for America, which is controlled by President Obama, and which has aired pro-healthcare reform ads such as those attacking Jim Demint:

Organizing for America

http://www.barackobama.com/

However, since Organizing for America is affiliated with the DNC, it does not really target conservative Democrats who might also be opposing or delaying reform. I know there are several liberal PACs out there, but which ones do you think are doing a good job promoting healthcare reform? If you were to donate to a group, which one would it be and why?

MoveOn:

http://www.moveon.org/

Democracy for America:

http://www.democracyforamerica.com/

Healthcare Now:

http://www.healthcare-now.org/

Thanks for the input!

1. I've donated to both MoveOn and DFA
the latter because I get emails about it from Russ Feingold, and because of its progressive bent.

4. Thanks! I Think I Will Go With DFA...
I do wish the groups would coordinate for some nationwide rallies, but I do like DFA's focus at this time.

3. Ask, who has the most meetings with President Obama on this, and that's your answer.
