If the election goes against us and it’s because of ACORN....kiss America good bye.....if you can’t stand up and fight for something...well...that’s your choice. ACORN has been working on this for years and years.....it’s just that NOW they’re really making inroads....with their accomplices in Congress....

My friend, I hear you ... and I, too, wish that ACORN was better managed.

The problem is that ACORN PAYS unemployed people to register voters. This is the problem, right there. These people -- many of whom are the worst possible characters -- cheat - they make up names and addresses and collect a paycheck. Funded by us the taxpayer, yes! This practice needs to STOP

But, remember, they are ALSO committing fraud against ACORN; that's who is paying them for "real" registrations. Many of the investigations against these registrations have been initiated by ACORN itself.

But to say the election will be lost because of ACORN stretches the point. Fraudulent registrations are caught at many checkpoints - ACORN's lame quality assurance catches some and the registar catches most of them. Even if a registration passes all these checkpoints, someone still needs to show up and vote.

This does not explain the margin between McCain and Obama.
