Just so we are clear
There seems to be some confusion or rather, stubborn-ness, on the right in regards to this whole ACORN thing.
It is not voter fraud.
It is "possible" registration fraud.
Which was brought to light by those that review the registration forms, fact check, ensure that the information is correct, and then submit those forms to the appropriate authorities to register a voter.
Voter fraud would be someone coming in and voting under Albert Einstein with ID that said he was Albert Einstein and then returning to vote as Benjamin Franklin with an ID that said he was Benjamin Franklin.
The ridiculous way that the right, mostly the very far neocon territory right are the ones that keep repeating this false information. Of course, not acknowledging voting machine tampering in 2000 or 2006, voter records expunged, intimidation and threats, nor will the acknowledge that a republican was busted for registration fraud in California.
ACORN has been a great organization that registers poor people and minorities to vote. That is their crime. That is why they are a target. It's pathetic but this is what happens when people get desperate. They start swinging wildly. Kind of like a drowning person. Every lifeguard is trained to expect the victim to grasp, punch, tear, etc. at them as they are in survival mode. That is what is going on here.
They see the train coming and they cannot get off the tracks. They are trying but they cannot. They are about to be hit hard and they are grasping at every conceivable straw, every available lifeline.
They will not find one.
The moderates of their party have decided to send them a message. Give us our party back. You ran us into the ground. We are done with you calling all the shots. Take your medicine and let the grownups take charge.
Step aside.
