The ACORN Did Not Fall Far From the Tree
Senator Barack Obama, the uber-community organizer and Oak Tree of the radical left, is dropping little ACORNs all over the place. Yet, his campaign remains poised to best Senator John McCain in some critical states. Once unheard of, Howard Kurtz reports this morning that North Carolina, Ohio, Florida and even Virginia are tilting Obama’s way.
With the economy in crisis, McCain and Republicans are facing an uphill challenge. Character still counts - but folks will vote in what they believe is their own self-interest. Generic Dems almost always are seen as better on the economy - because the Left has been so successful in convincing average folks that Government will save you - from problems bad governance CAUSED. Talk about cognitive dissonance.
Obama continues to tell us how being a Community Organizer transformed his life. The main stream press can focus only on the negative story of the day, never mind their ethical responsibility to cover ALL the issues facing us. From Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Florida, and many other states according to The Washington Times.
The FBI has raided ACORN offices in Nevada. Investigations in Wisconsin, North Carolina, New Mexico, Michigan, Ohio and Missouri are underway. Many of Obama’s fellow “community organizers” are emerging, like Tony Rezko before them, as very shady characters indeed.
Look, I believe voter registration is critical. The more the merrier. But… we should want REAL voters. Not lies, false registrations, and strong-arm Chicago style politicking to benefit one guy. Elections are about all Americans, coming together to do what we believe is in the best interests of our nation. I want Obama and McCain supporters to both be fired up. But Obama’s supporters fervor for their man has led to a massive breakdown in ethics. Ethics, character, integrity matter far more than any promise of magic solutions from the government.
Fair or not, you are judged by the country you keep. And so shall Obama and McCain be.

You are absolutely right, I don’t understand how anyone can believe that this election will be fair considering all of the voter fraud and it all leans one way (left). What are we supposed to do when you know yo don’t have a fair chance to win, I live in Ohio and I am so discusted with all of this that it makes me sick. All I can think is that my vote won’t mean anything when there are going to be 10 votes to my 1 that are fraudulent.

If there is any voter fraud it will be by the Republicans. They already have a history of hijackign elections. Bush STOLE the election in 2000. THere is no proof of any wrong doing by Obama in connection with voter fraud. Why not report on the Republicans who tried to use sleazy tactics in getting people disqualified to vote in Michigan if there house was in foreclosure. Never mind that they may be working on alternative financing to save their house.. let’s just PURGE the voter records. How dare you lead with this misleading bunch of trash story.

I am SURE that we had voter fraud in the last 2 electios - Reblicans went to PRISON for it….for 1, they jammed the phone lines on election day, and were prosecuted. WE KNOW the election was stolen, at least once, in the last 8 years….now that the Republicans think it could be the “others” taking from them….oh ! big scandal. Yeah, right. Doulde standards all across the board. Grace
