Probably not, but the ‘get-our-message-in-line‘ campaign organization by the left passed the creepy peg a few rotations ago. Does Media Matters have this much power?

The vast new left-wing conspiracy sets its tone every morning at 8:45 a.m., when officials from more than 20 labor, environmental and other Democratic-leaning groups dial into a private conference call hosted by two left-leaning Washington organizations.

The “8:45 A.M. call,” as it’s referred to by members, began three weeks ago, and it marks a new level in coordination by the White House’s allies at a time when the conservative opposition is struggling for a toe-hold and major agenda items like health care reform appear closer than ever to passage.

The call is hosted by Progressive Media, a project of the CAP Action Fund and the Media Matters Action Fund. The project began last year as a launching pad for attacks on John McCain, but failed to raise money for television advertisements, and served in the later days of the presidential campaign as a platform for disseminating opposition research critical of his policy plans. White House officials do not take part in the calls.

Hot Air points out a bevy of similar deals on the Left…

Truthfully, I don’t think the folks on this call have the power they are pretending to wield. I’m much more disturbed by the fact that Carville (CNN), Stephanopoulos (ABC), Begala (CNN) and Rahm Emanuel (no network… he’s simply the President’s Chief of Staff) join in on calls to coordinate and share information on a daily basis.

The never-ending campaign rolls on…

Conspiracy? Probably not… Discomforting? For sure.
