Worst trouble with ACORN is at the polls (Al Franken ACORN fraud?)

ACORN was once the darling of Democrats for its support of every item on the left-wing wish list. Suddenly, its employees can hardly find a Democrat who will answer their phone calls.

But ACORN does have a special place in its heart for at least one prominent Minnesota politician. Last year, it showered praise on Al Franken, endorsing his run for the U.S. Senate. Franken returned the esteem: "I'm thrilled and honored to receive this endorsement," he gushed in a press release. He added that he was "more motivated than ever to work with ACORN."

I'm not suggesting that Franken had any association with the folks behind ACORN's recent scandal. Indeed, when the Senate voted to defund ACORN, he got religion and joined the pack.

It's worth recalling, however, that ACORN is best-known for its massive voter-registration campaigns, which focus relentlessly on getting Democrats elected in targeted states. Here its record is appalling -- and goes to the heart of our democratic electoral system.

Franken could not have won without ACORN voter fraud. Wake up Minnesota!

The MN election should be the first one investigated. After the findings come out, then let the investigations continue into every questionable election.

[MNJohnnie]

Forget it. The voters of MN are openly third world peons now. They sat by and watched their votes be over turned by clear voter fraud and said nothing. They love their chains too much to ever wake up.

[lookout88]

impeach Franken, Obama, all the treacherous traitors. We need a tea party of impeachment, NOW.

[BuffaloJack]

He didn’t win. You can’t legitimately win a rigged election, you can only be appointed through nefarious means.

[BenLurkin]

bttt

[Cheetahcat]

Yeah this nitwit fraud in the whitehouse needs to go as well no way he got the vote.

[devane617]

Franken is a direct result of ACORN fraud. He best step back in the dark and shut-up.

[goodnesswins]

Nor could Christine Gregoire in WA State.....where it took 2 RECOUNTS to get her elected! Acornites were jailed over it.....but, the election should have been overturned.

It’s quite obvious that the people of MN suffer from serious brain freeze that has completely rid them of their ability to think clearly. It’s why they typically vote for idiots.

What an idiot.

Just enough intelligence to make fools out of Minnesotans.

I’ve been holding out hope for MN ever since that wrestler dude got elected (despite how he turned out), but five years from now, no one in MN may give a crap about Franken’s buddies.

Not all.

The most devout conservatives come from Minnesota.

Just not enough of them.

[The Comedian]

Big kiss to ACORN and the Minnesota communists.

[blueyon]

This goes higher then ACORN, when the 300 plus votes in MN were “found” in a trunk of a car (using the old Ooops I forgot to turn them in line), they were ruled to be counted!!!!!!!!

[MNJohnnie]

Yep because those of us who DO care are bolting this state.

[Cicero]

The election has been settled, and there isn’t a chance in the world that it would be reversed.

Yes, there was massive voter fraud, and then there was massive fraud counting the votes, and then there was massive fraud in the courts.

But nothing can be done at this point. If the people of Minnesota wake up, maybe they can throw a few of the bums responsible out when they come up for re-election. And maybe they can throw Franken out in 5 years.

[dr_who]

...and Michigan as well. Sooner or later however, attitudes will change, seems to me.

[PLD]

None of the criminals in Washington could have won without ACORN..they are all in office illegally as far as I am concerned..Mickey and Minnie mouse voted for all of them..I just hope to get out of some trouble these ACORN joker's will take down these politicians along withe Obama..Of course that is not going to happen they have shredded all documents concerning any of these crooks..

[Logical me]

MN, enjoy your pig nitwit. He sure will help you out.
