1. Total bullsit. Any fraud by Acorn workers NEVER altered the actual vote count.
 It only benefitted the cheaters by paying them for useless fake registrations that had no voters behind them.

I agree...it was delicious. You know how I rail against the fraud that are some of the people milking the system. Good to get right at those helping to organized and perpetrate the fraud, not to mention individuals who turn a blind eye and actively facilitate illegal behavior, especially that involving children :bird: Shitbags, all of them(ACORN that is).
