reagan do not be a fool and talk sensibly

@Erika from Kansas, I'm at the point where I'll take arrogance over ignorance to get this country back on track.

Here is what Senator McCain do for us …
Allow Governor Sarah Palin to do 6 or 7 more interview with the major news anchors on ANY station but FOX between now and the end of October….
He is NOT putting the country FIRST if he is willing to prevent America from finding out the REAL intelligence and knowledge of his V.P. candidate.
It sickens me that the rest of America isn't more upset about this…

ACORN held a news conference where you can watch on cspan.org.

They are fighting back against the smears and lies from the Mccain camp.

The McCain camp is so SAD…I almost feel sorry for the McCain/Palin ticket. They will do and say anything to get a vote. McCain never said he was a Christian but Sarah Palin said it and she is not behaving like any Christian I know. She continues to take the lies to "no where" fast.

CNN PLEASE POST THIS COMMENT

Obama will not respond – mainly because how would he – if he continues to lie about his connection there he just gets in deeper and deeper and then forgets what lies he has told. And IF he were man enough to admit his dealings with Acorn, Ayers, Wright, Renzko, etc. then you blinded, hypnotized Obamanots would have to admit that he is exactly what we have been telling you that he is. An arrogant, egotistical, corrupt, lieing Chicago thug with all intent and purposes of destroying the United States of America. I can't wait to see you all crying about what he as done – it will be way to late then. You, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, NYT, and all the other Obama biased media will know you've pushed a socialist pig (without lipstick although his lips are purple) down the throats of good, decent hard working Americans who have worked hard to get where they are only to have to hand it over to a bunch of low-lifes who don't want to work but to "share the wealth" of others so they can sit on their butts and do nothing but rape, steal and kill and have their hands slapped.

McCain/Palin – the ONLY logical, intelligent choice for 08.

ABUSIVE ANGER/POWER ABUSER (MCCAIN/PALIN). I hope all of these accusations are brought up during the debate so that obama can put them to rest once and for all.

New Slogan: "TOO LATE MCCAIN"

Look everyone comes across people from all walks of life. If someone has paid their debt to society and has rehabilitated themselves should we still hold their past mistakes against them? McCain and Obama have both had dealings with some sketchy people. I urge all of you to check out some of the people McCain has sat on boards with, like Anthony Bouscaren, who researched white supremacy (Pioneer Fund) or Marilyn Shannon, the woman who praised a woman who bombed women's clinics that performed abortions and shot a doctor for doing the same. I bet McCain wont tell you that the the wife of the gentlemen who founded the board in which Obama and Ayers both sat on is his supporter.

So if McCain is going to point fingers at Obama, he'd better take a look in the mirror because he's not squeaky clean himself.

Lord please forgive "Just Joe". Please help him.

To Matt:

No, I'm actually NOT the one taking the killer kool-aid! Like I give a rat's patoot that Obama served on a committee formed by Republicans with a NOW respectable university professor who bombed a couple buildings when Obama was in grade school…. oooh, scary!

What I DO find relevant is that with our economic crisis bearing down on us regular folk, McCain has the utter gall to bring up Ayers when HIS scandal directly reflects how he feels about bailing huge companies out and sticking US with the bill…. if that means I'm on drugs, then bring on the crack because I'll take a guy who sat on a committe with a guy who bombed in protest 40 years ago to somone who allies themselves with a guy who caused one of the biggest bank collapses in history

James you are right. McCain is documented as supporting ACORN.

Where is the proof that Obama had a relationship with Ayers (NONE). Where are the pictures of them going out "palling around as the repubs put it. They sat on the same board with (my I remind you) Republican officials also. I'm sick and tired of all the b*?*^it that is why McCain is down in the polls.

I liked McCain back 2000, but he is so out of touch it is scary

How much do want to bet that Acorn hires people to gather registrations and pays them on a volume basis? The more registrations you bring in, the cash you get paid.

Now ACORN is supposed to at least look at these documents to be sure that they are authenticate before submitting them to the proper public office. That didn't happen.

There was no conspiracy, just a few isolated individuals out to make a quick buck. And supervisors who were not doing their jobs to verify what these individuals submitted as "new voter" registrations.

smells like "obama-stole-election-from-me" spirit.

keep it up mccain, let's see how far it gets you.

when all of the barry supporters get ther wish and he is president…they're gonna love it. Then about 12-18 months later when they start seeing less of their paychecks and all the promises they received for free health care (I literally laugh while even using the word free and health care in the same sentence) no longer exist….I will be looking at them scrap for every dollar and just say…..told you so

All the talk about honesty look deep into McCain and Palin . One leaves a diabled wife with three kids to go on a date, then divorces the wife in a wheelchair and marries a millionaire and the other encouages a young man to drop out of HIGH SCHOOL .

Voter fraud requires voting. That hasn't happened yet.
Bogus registration forms are not voter fraud.
The bogus people don't vote.

Erica in KS-go crawl under a rock somewhere and please…do true Americans a favor and stay there!

To Erica in KS Who cares what you think, you are in Kansas. We know what you are and why you hate Obama. You can't stand the polls because, the polls are right and you are white. Get over it!

It really worries me that Obama was able to buy this election. This is proof that my vote doesn't even count.

just joe shows how dumb America can be.

John McCain didn't read the news today. Obama's followers and the media don't care what he does. Obama can lie, pay for votes, cheat – it just doesn't matter. He is beyond critisism now and everyone is afraid to say anything against him.

Government based on fear. Nice Change.

obama is not responsible for what acorn does any more than mccain is.and i do not see this as voter fraud,you have to show id to vote.i dont think jimmie johns is going to show up at the polls!just another distrction from the real issues period.

since when was it our place to determine who is the more qualified to serve our country based on color???? Doesn't the Bible mention that ALL are created equal? Race is an undertone, but let's get serious about the issues and cast our votes for the person who is best able to bring a real change to our bleeding country.

O'Bama will not reign in ACORN…O'Bama runs ACORN.

O'Bama with the campaign fund fraud being investigated, and now ACORN shows that this is one politician that the Americans cannot afford to allow in the White House.

OBAMA is one footstep away from Federal Prison.

bravo just joe, bravo….

why to show the stupidity of the un and under-educated. the sad thing is that rhetoric like that…the hate, the distrust has been bred into you. you sir are a perfect reason why abortion should stay legal. so stupid people dont breed.

Voter fraud, rather – stealing peoples' rights is the mark of the Republican party. Who does this arrogant old man think he is kidding?

Here are the facts:

1. ACORN registers new voters.
2. Obama has given money to ACORN
3. ACORN pays its employees on a commsion (sort of). They pay for each registred voter.
4. It would be the employees fault for fraudantly registering people.
5. The employer, ACORN, should've examined its records more closely.
6. There has been no voter fraud. It takes someone actually voting to accomplish this.
7. Even if there were thousands of people fruadantly registered, and even if they all voted, this would most likely not sway the election.

In the end it wont matter that much.

I am hoping McSenile brings up Rev.Wright, then Obama can show videos of Palin with the witch doctor. Voted early , VOTED OBAMA.
Obama/Biden 08
Connie from Indiana

Every time McCain opens his old big mouth, the DOW drops 789 points.

OBAMA DOESN'T HAVE TO BUY THIS ELECTION. JOHN MCCAIN'S STUPIDITY IS GIVING IT TO HIM…..

OBAMA 08

This almost sounds like the trick question about Gov Palain being selected by Sen McCain for VP, oh i forgot president. Now stop playing with this trickery

The McCain camp is so SAD…I almost feel sorry for the McCain/Palin ticket. They will do and say anything to get a vote. McCain never said he was a Christian but Sarah Palin said it and she is not behaving like any Christian I know. She continues to take the lies to "no where" fast.

"…Senator Obama has the responsibility to rein in ACORN’s efforts and to work aggressively against wide-scale voter fraud." Wouldn't this require Obama to actually do work?? Come on you so called community organizer, this is your so called area of expertise right?? Let's see what kind of inaction Obama does on this….like everything else.

It appears that the Hate Talk Express has derailed no matter how much they want to be relevant. The American people are too smart to vote for divisiveness and negativity and fear this time.

Obama is leading in key states because the ACORN votes and voter registrations are fraud. McCain needs to slam Obama on Ayers and ACORN tomorrow night at the debates.

The amount of voter fraud is miniscule compared to what your spiritual leader, Herr Rove did in the Justice Department ! This is just another opportunity for vote caging and all the other dirty tricks that Reptilicans use to try to "fix" elections…NOT GONNA WORK, GRAMPS!

To Just Joe……you are about as ignorant as your party. How can a man as educated as you say you are and that your resume would put Obama's to shame continue to have a view about black and whites! Not good Just Joe…….open your eyes Joe, issues with McCain in office is like cleaning your drive way after a snowstorm while there is a blizzard still coming down…you aint going to clean it, it's more of the same snow.

Sorry, but a professional thug's opinion has little value.

Should we all be held accountable for the wrong doings of organizations we have donated to?

If this is the case let's examine Gov. Palins ties to the Alaskan Independence Party and their plans to secede from the union.

The charges against ACORN are serious, but they are only charges that may turn out to be false, so there may be nothing to reign in. But why is McCain complaining so much now? As a Senator, he has had plenty of time since George W. Bush was "selected" President by the Supreme Court to support reform of our voting systems, and he has not done so.

I guess he wasn't losing back then.

Again, John is WRONG………it just goes on and on with John McCain.
Obama had noting to do with ACORN. Shoot John has more to with these guys than Obama does. Whatever, John. I am a white 35 year old Cheif petty officer in the Navy and you sir, LOST MY VOTE.

Does no one care that OBAMA LIED???????

Why not ask Rudy to do it, since he doesn't think highly of Community Organizers, or divert your staffer from PA, FL & Ohio they will have some time on their hands shortly. I love Davis acting holier than thou when McCain has been to ACORN events as well. Just how were you guys planning on running the country if you were elected. We have already had 8 yrs of winging it.

TC,
Why are you just spewing the McCain campaign rhetoric? Why don't you do your own research online? Ayers was an alleged terrorist some 40 years ago; he is now a college professor in Chicago. Using your yard stick, we should hold the College that employed him culpable, and also all his students – both past and future. Also, please remember to hold John McCain accountable since Leonore Annenberg – who provided the $50M that was disbursed by the board on which both Barack and Ayers sat – a non profit organization that disbursed money to schools in Illinois. If anyone is to be held accountable in this matter, it should be Leonore Annenberg for having Ayers on the board. Once again, let me remind you that Ayers was never found guilty of any crime – and the last time I checked, the law in the US is innocent until proven guilty.

Hey "Just Joe" shut your racist face. You are one of the ignorant, low information racist who Obama and the Democrats are going to slowing but surely weed out of the country….go live somewhere else, cus this country may not be for you. This is no longer a White America….deal with it!

Tell McSame to explain why he attends ACORN meetings! Maybe he could rein them in since he is sooo familiar with them!

It's not going to matter. There will be fraud committed in this election by both parties, regardless. They always do. The two party system is a sham. We are being led down the primrose path. And the elites just laugh.

Hey you angry americans. Wonder why this topic is coming up now? Because when Obama wins, we are coming for your guns, you bitter has beens.

Obama and ACORN have really brought out the savages. The communist movement started in much the same way/.

This is a non issue

TC –

Obama was NEVER in charge or manage ACORN. It seems McCain has stronger ties to ACORN now they have a featured picture of him in 2006.

So McCain wants Obama to be responsible for every person or organization he ever worked with? Obama should "reign in " ACORN as if he has the power or responsibility to?

Utter crap, which is all we can expect from McCain for the next three weeks I guess.

Maybe McCain should do more to "reign in" the lies and smears coming from his own campaign, something he should in theory have control over, though it appears less and less that he actually does.

Obama/Biden '08

Someone should challenge McCain to get out there and ensure that ALL Americans, rich and poor alike, get a chance to vote. But then again, why would he want the poorest among us to have a voice in government?

this are the last kicks of a dying horse mccshame is trying to employ. he needs to guard his mouth at this critical moment in our financial woes

I can't stand Obama. I can't stand his ego. I can't stand his inexperience. I can't stand his arrogance. I can't stand his racism. I can't stand his smooth slick used car salesman tactics. I can't stand how he treated Hillary, and how he continues to treat opponents. I can't the fact that he brings up Keating 5 lore of McCain, yet refuses to admit that that was just a mistake McCain made, while not owning up to his own (hate for America, racist, greed, drugs, etc.) In fact, he has no redeeming qualities for being President except the media and fan club jumped on that band wagon, and hopefully we won't have to suffer through a socialist Obama administration. Believe me, these polls aren't accurate. They mean nothing until after election. There's a lot of people out here that won't support Obama for a variety of reason. I won't because of his own inexperience. What the hell has he done? Vote "present"?

McCain supporters are really scared now. It's not too late to make an exit plan when Obama wins the Presidency. I suggest all McCain supporters follow Palin back to Alaska and start your own country. That should make you feel better.

This mess with ACORN is bipartisan…McCain has been a supporter and spoken at their convention and Obama has sent financial aid. Their reasons? ACORN's stated objective is to make sure everyone who is eligible to vote is registered to vote. While I certainly do not condone the irregularities already found, to paint an entire organization with the same brush is both foolish and unrealistic. There are bad apples in every company and those who cross the line in every campaign. But to accuse Obama of trying to cause voter fraud? Excuse me? Who is ahead right now and who is behind? We've already had one election that was hijacked from the people, I don't think we want another.

ACORN is under indictment or federal investigation in every swing state. hmmm…

Just because Obama's campain paid $800,000 to ACORN to help in voter registration drives doesn't prove a connection… to the OJ jury maybe. but anyone with a brain and not drinking blue kool-aid can see right through it.

just remember whatever obama takes away from me today, he takes away from you tomorrow.

and to the post by Lo – do you really believe it's even vaguely reasonable to compare someone who unrepentently bombed federal buildings and tried to kill a judge is the same as the lame names you brought out from McCain's past??? seriously??? are you on drugs???

America challenges the press to report on John McCain's terrorist links to PNAC (Project for a New American Century). He is the co-founder of this extremist radical group bent on global manipulation through war.

McCain did not give ACORN $800,000 like Obama. That money paid for multiple registrations of the same people and dead people. It appears Obama is trying to buy the election. And if not, then why is he wasting his campaign dollars on an organization that obviously has problems with fraud. McCain attended an ACORN event, Obama supported them financially. Oh and lets not forget that Obama attended a Daily Coast event. There are people there who spew out far worse things then what some at McCain's campaign stumps have been saying recently.

just joe, 1:14pm: "I'll vote white……..to do otherwise is somewhat of an illiterate choice."

I know people like you exist, I am glad I do not know any.
So you will vote your issue. I and an overwhelming number of people will vote for the greater good of all. Even you Joe.

OBAMA 08

Riiiight. And Obama's dumb enough to pretend he has control over ACORN so McCain can point fingers and say "look, he tells them what to do so he's responsible for widespread fraud" (if there even is any). I'm starting to like it that the conservative right-wingers and the whole republican party is in total disarray and acting stupid. Keep it up guys. Maybe we'll have control long enough to fix all the messes you've made.

TO BAD MCCAIN AND BUSH DIDN'T DO THAT IN '00 AND '04. WE SURE WOULD HAVE BEEN ALOT BETTER OFF WITH GORE.

OBAMA 08

another sleazeball ploy by the McCain camp.

McCain, Why don't you reign ACORN in? Looks like you're not doing anything constructive at the moment.

Gosh, it seems like not that long ago McInsane was a speaker at an Acorn-sponsored event, but of course the Repubs will never let facts get in the way of their slime.

But far be it for one of the Keating Five to complain about alleged corruption …..

"You know John, I don't fund them, they don't work for me, I have no more authority over them that you have over the racists causing trouble at your rallies."

Next up: the kitchen sink.

I can see the Republicans are getting their excuses together already. They just can't accept that they have been defeated. The connection between Obama and ACORN is a stretch. Obama worked for a law firm who counseled ACORN and now all of a sudden Obama masterminded voter's fraud. The Repugs never cease to amaze me.

McCain was 100% cleared in the Keating 5 scandal and did not even receive any kind of reprimand, so Liberals have no case there. Pastor Hagee and Pastor Muthee may have endorsed McCain but McCain has no say in that. He also never attended their church for a day nevermind 20 years. Obama is a liar who has th emost liberal record of all Senators. If he was truly proud of everything he has done in the past, then why is he running away from his record?

Does anyone can tell us who is OB? How much do you know this guy??? Is he really the Jesus as someone said before? He may be Lewis again, but should not be the President.

Be have like a man as McCain.

Obama should also be asked by the McCain Palin Campaign to reign in the KKK. He should be held responsible for "paling" with white folks like his mother and grandparents.

ACORN was also registering Republicans. Funny how they have video of McCain supporting them. NON-ISSUE. It's voter registration fraud not voting itself.

OK John, if you'll rein in Palin's ongoing hateful and divisive messages too. Why don't you work on bettering America instead of attacking Obama? We need leadership, not you donning your aviator's flight suit and attacking. Is that all you know how to do–attack? How about building bridges and healing our country? We need a leader, John, not an attack dog!

IT'S NOT LIKE IT WILL BE THE TOTAL END FOR MCCAIN WHEN HE LOSES.

HE CAN GO BACK TO WHINE AND MOAN IN THE SENATE AND BECOME THE NEW SPOKESMAN FOR GERITOL, VIAGARA, ETC.

TAKE IT LIKE AN OLD MAN JOHNNY!

Why would Obama want to reign in ACORN when he has 99% of the voters that ACORN registered? So what if someone registered 73 times, or if the starting lineup of the Cowboys was registered or Mickey Mouse registered. ACORN must go and NO MORE GOVERNMENT MONEY FOR THEM.

This might be creditable if it wasn't coming from Rick Davis!
If Obama did do this they would say: "See it's in control of ACORN". Which means Obama, even if thought it would be best for the country, really can't act because of the polarizing politics of McCain.

McBush is a total joke. ACORN registers voters for both parties, but I guess that is to complicated for McBush to understand. He is just upset that more people are registering as Democrats and will vote for Obama. If you truly want to put country first McBush, then pack up and go back to Arizona and buy eskimo barbie a one way ticket back to Alaska so she can stare at Russia from her house!!

Obama/Biden '08

Whatever– Is it voter fraud when they havent even gone to the polls to try and vote? This all seems nutty to me. Who really cares?
Just dont register the one's that are fraudulent, and that will be that.

What? So he's against minorities mobilizing to vote?

Newsflash, John: The civil war is over, and we're free now! We can do anything you can do!

Just Joe, you are a bigoted, blithering idiot. Way to cut off your nose to spite your face. You must be one of the retards who blushes everytime cutie Palin winks at ya, you betcha!

No matter, no matter, President Obama will increase your taxes forthwith!! So it looks like I'm voting black, as opposed to senile and anti-female.
Barack the Vote people!

the economy stupid!!!!!!

The rethuglicans have in MI already tried to get people disqualified from voting if they have been foreclosed upon. That not only is illegal it is immoral. However let's talk about the rethuglican controlled die bold machines that gave gwb his wins. mccain is trying to tie Obama to everything, and I understand mccain is a desperate man but GOOD GOD! Was he responsible for hurricane Katrina too! geez!

What a hyporcite!
Back when ACORN was helping MCCain he praised them.
Now they are the same as domestic terrorists?

ACORN registers voters for BOTH parties, silly.
Acorn empoys homeless people, and If MCain wins there will be many more of them…

By the way, if there is voter intimidation going on it is at those wacky hate-filled GOP rallies over the past week and a half.

that ain't country first, my freinds.

I'm sure if Jesus were alive today, he'd be branded a communist agitator/community organizer/ blah blah blah

three weeks can't come too soon.

ANOTHER DISTRACTION WITHOUT SUBSTANCE!!!

Hmmm. Of course it's all Sen. Obama's fault, how did I not see that!! Hurricane Katrina was his fault, too, I think, maybe, the glacier meltoff is his fault, too. Get real, McCain and Co. Oh yeah, and to the comment by George in Indianapolis, check out Sarah Palin's connection to the John Birch Society (through the Alaskan Independence Party). Scary stuff, I think you'll agree.

The only liar I've seen is McCain. Watch out people, his lips are moving again.

MCCAIN PLEDGES!

MCCAIN VOWS!

MCCAIN PROMISES!

ETC. ETC. ETC.

THE ONE THING HE DOESN'T DO IS TELL AMERICA HOW!….WHY? BECAUSE HE HAS NO IDEA!

WAKE UP PEOPLE!

McCain makes it sound like ACORN is as much a part of the Obama campaign as Palin the Pit Bull is part of McCain's. Now there's a dog that needs a leash! He either really doesn't get it or is really losing it, can't figure out which one.

Give me a break McCain. You were photographed with them as recent as 2006.

But then it makes sense. ACORN is registering 1.3 million people and McCain can have an excuse ready as to why he lost the election.

Instead of taking his butt-whooping like a man, he spends all this energy lying, focusing on dead issues such as Ayers, and trying to elicit some bogus conspiracy between ACORN and Obama.

I tell you what, this election has taught me who the TRUE "whiners" (you listening Phil Gramm?) are.

Obama/Biden 2008/2012.

I think if I were McCAIN (and thank God, I'm not), I would focus on and talk about issues that are important to Americans, such as jobs, health care, education, and the economy. I think if we opened McCains closet, we would find it to be full of skeletons.

Why doesn't McCain or the republicans reign in ACORN. There are reports today on huffingtonpost that show McCain himself at ACORN events as well as other republicans all having ties to ACORN. Why don't they stop some of the illegal voter purging that is going on in swing states to thousands of eligible new voters. I highly doubt Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck are going to show up to the polls and vote. This is just a way to blow smoke and give them a way to say the election was fixed when they lose!

Give it a rest McBush. Maybe we should challenge you to reign in your power abusing, unethical, lying, cheating VP!!

Obama/Biden '08

Anything to take away concentration on the issue at hand and paint Obama as evil. CNN wouldn't even report the fact that while McCain camp was raising this issue, ACORN released a picture of McCain and other top Republicans including Republican Governors of some states posing with ACORN staff during a signing ceremony. Votes have not been casted. They have only been challenged which means these fraudulent votes may not be casted. The Republicans are feeling frausted because they can't hijack this election by disenfranching people from voting. Democracy my butts!!!!!!

Obama dontaed $800,000 of his campaign finances to ACORN this year so essentially he employs ACORN. And since ACORN works predominantly in "urban" areas, well, you make your own opinion about his ties to the group. CNN blogs are mostly all filled with Democratic hate. If people would take as much time to really think about Obama and what he stands for as opposed to defending his every little gaffe then more people wouild realize that he is a bad choice for moving this country in a positive direction.

Just another stunt…..How many stunts is that now?

No one cares McBush. Maybe we should bring up the fact of your link to Keating or maybe the fact that your VP was exposed for being a power abusing unethical liar and cheat. Not going to work McBush, just pack it up and go away and take eskimo barbie with you!!

Obama/Biden '08

Can we say lame, as in McLame?

It's about time to rein in Acorn.

When is the media going to do its job and call out McCain for always taking Obama's statements out of context?
The media also needs to expose all of the hate and hate-speech that has been going on outside of the McCain-Palin rallies. If McCain stays silent he will be responsible if someone gets hurt.

O and Joe '08

I am not a single issue voter, my 2008 calculus takes other matters—like the economy, the economy and the economy—into account

Obama is a LIAR. He also does not do what he says he will do. The Money that flowed into ACORN from the Obama campaign should tell you exactly what is happening here. It is documented. It should not be ignored. You don't give someone $850,000 for nothing.

McCain, get real and talk about the issues.

The set: before the sting…smells like ACORN is a close relative to a HANGING CHAD!

Obama won't get sucked in..let McCain babble on only three more weeks and then sleep.

TC, I totally agree with your comments and would also add that when this election is over and the people that voted several times see their candidate not helping them guess what will happen next, it sure won't be very pretty and they can blame themselves for the problems that are coming…

Instead of having future President Obama do that, kindly do it yourself. You ARE familiar enough with ACORN, Senator. Just yesterday I saw a photo of YOU with them. ACORN works for both parties, not just the Democrats.
By the way, Rick Davis — just be quiet and return every dime you took from Fannie and Freddie. Another repub hypocrite!

where is cafferty???????????????????????????????????????????????

I guess Obama is blame for this Acorn mess.
Question:
I work in a very large hospital and collect monies on a regular basis and when I make my cash drop. Now I am responsible if the head cashier takes the monies?
Some things you are not responsible for.

Just another desperate ploy by McCain and his cronies to distract voters from his lame policies. This is really a non issue. Both parties benefit and both parties will suffer some loss. Does this make it right? No, but it will all equal out in the end. Just another distraction.

I agree that people shouldn't be register twice! Why didn't people complain about when Florida cheated for Bush and they were adding and throwing out democrates votes back then? Could it be because his brother was running Florida???????Nobody had time to check his ballots but now ACORN all of a sudden is a PROBLEM?

TC, I totally agree with your comments and would also add that when this election is over and the people that voted several times see their candidate not helping them guess what will happen next, it sure won't be very pretty and they can blame themselves for the prblems that are coming…

Mcain needs to rein in his hostile supporters.

Who will the McCain camp try to tie Obama to next? The IRA? or the KKK? John Birch society? I mean One canidate has no more power or influence over ACORN as the other. ACORN was set up to register all voters. And McCain needs to be Careful: Most of the voters that lean "Democratic" (were foreclosed last year. Those That lean Republican" are just now having their bad debt catch up with them.

the McCain desperation is showing….

Mccain this is your Conscience talking It is Over Champ!

Nobody's perfect. We have to weigh what we believe the facts to be and choose accordingly. Obama/Biden '08

REMEMBER TO VOTE NOVEMBER 4TH……WE CAN NOT HAVE ANOTHER 2000 OR 2004.

THATONE08

What power does Obama have over ACORN? That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard in my life! If they are doing soemthing wrong it has nothing to do with Obama…in fact haging CHADS in the 2000 election have more to do with Bush than this does with Obama!

If I paid acorn 700k to paint all 13 of my houses and then acorn cheated 23,000 elderly people out of their entire life savings … would I be considered Linked to acorn?

HMMM

I guess not unless I was going on vacation with them, receiving kickbacks from them, palling around with them on their private jet and my spouse was doing shady business deals with them.

Get Some Sense

Somewhere on CNN tv today they asked if race was going to be a factor in how voters as individuals between McCain and Obama….of course, whatever the name of the program is is still using the term "African-American," which he ain't!

But I have no intention of voting for the bi-racial Mr. Obama. Hell, I have a resume which puts his to total shame…..he's a lightweight and he minds his "handlers" very carefully. Am I voting Race….I guess so, but let's face it, if this guy was Colin Powell, I probably wouldn't care….he's got a track record…….Obama is prettty invisible…..even to the media. So, I'll vote white……..to do otherwise is somewhat of an illiterate choice.

TC, your lies aren't going to help your lying candidate get elected. I'm a registered Republican and I'm voting for "that one". And I think, after the research I've done for months, that most people will not be fooled by McLiar this time around.

CNN: PLEASE TELL US WHERE CAFFERTY IS? WE WANT TO KNOW!!!!!

Obama paid ACORN to help register new voters, because that's what Americans are supposed to do. Help each other vote.

To imply that these donations were for anything but legitimate purposes – without any evidence otherwise – is slimy, filthy politicking. But then again, this is Rick Davis and the McCain/Palin ticket we're talking about here, and we all know they're more interested in drudging up lies and mudslinging to avoid talking any more about the economy, for which McCain has no real ideas.

it's the economy, STUPID,, JUST BECAUSE YOU REGISTERED to vote illegally, obviously you can't vote,illegally, get a grip and let this controversy go, mccain was involved in this organization 2 years agp, why weren't the repubs crying foul in 2000 and 04, it's not going to work this year OBAMA/BIDEN08

ACORN is an INDEPENDENT organization NOT afiliated with ANY campaign. McCain (who attended ACORN conventions) is trying to tie Obama to the registration errors, but that is just a FALSE charge, another one in the looooong line of LIES and deceptions by the McCain campaign. Obama can not do anything about ACORN. Stop the Lies and the smears !!!

Obama/Biden '08

The GOP is the party of voter fraud. To say otherwise is simply laughable…….and somewhat pathetic and desparate.

IN ALL LIKELIHOOD IT WAS THE REPUBLICANS

THAT CONCOCTED THE WHOLE ESCAPADE.

ELECTION FRAUD IS THEIR SPECIALTY.

THATS HOW WE WOUND UP WITH BUSH.

ACORN is under indictment or federal investigation in every swing state. hmmm…

Just because Obama's campain paid $800,000 to ACORN to help in voter registration drives doesn't prove a connection… to the OJ jury maybe. but anyone with a brain and not drinking blue kool-aid can see right through it.

just remember whatever obama takes away from me today, he takes away from you tomorrow. sig heil!!

By the way McCain, didn't you have a photo op with ACORN?

McCain needs to rein in Palin.

Every time I go cast my vote, the workers always check my ID. If there is a registration fraud that's different from actual vote. All workers should check voter's ID to avoid voting fraud. People just need to be responsible to bring their ID when they vote in Nov. 4th.

Cheating as in how the Republicans stole and cheated in the 2004 elections? Stop lying against Barack, I know you're desperate but lying is not helping you 'my friend.'

McCain was a keynote speaker at an ACORN function in 2006. I say McCain needs to help rein them in since he has a relationship with them as well.

""Just a guy in the neighbor" is not someone you sit on boards with or who launches your career from their living room"

This is just silly. I'm on many committees and boards through my job, and I only know a handful of the people who I serve with. A healthy number of them I can't even identify by name. It does not mean we're friends, though we are friendly and civil when we meet. Why is this difficult to understand?

When I see the crowds at the Republican rallies I am reminded that there is still 25 % of the people that think Bush is doig a GREAT JOB.

You're asking for it McCain. I just saw a list of scandals involving you, your VP and your wife. If you wanna take it there, fine. As Sen. Obama stated before, we won't throw the first punch, but we'll definitely land the last one. Sara Palin has a real issue with abuse of power. Why'd she fire a librarian behind library censorship then rehired her? That's just one thing we can address. The list goes on and on. Like, why did your wife continue doing business with Keating after your scandal? I guess all that prescription medicine clouded her judgement. Bring it on McShame.

OBAMA/BIDEN 08

I think it would be the repsonsible thing for senator obama to do and request with urgency that acorn stop receiving any federal funds and that the group issue a statement of apology to american voters of both parties for attempting to corrupt our most significant symbol of freedom…our right to vote!

TC. Obama didn't launch his career from Ayers' living room, that event was for Alice Palmer, not a "coming-out party" for Obama. Obama was invited by Palmer to the event. Please research before just regurgitating nonsense.

And just as how you say that McCain has learned from his Keating mistake, Ayers learned from his mistake that he made when Obama was 8 years old. Hardly 'palling around with a terrorist' if you ask me.

THINK PEOPLE.

McCain has been a supporter of ACORN. Shouldn't this be a joint call to reign them in? Also voter fraud is only when some votes under false pretenses. Not when someone simply registers.

If McCain is such a fighter, he needs to fight ACORN. The fact is if you are a NEW REGISTERED VOTER, you can't vote unless you have proper identification.

Why is it that non political citizen know that but yet the REPUBLICAN SMEAR CAMPAGIN HAS A DEAF EAR. IF there is 1 trillion fake registration cards, then when NOV 4th comes they have to prove who they are, or they can't vote?

How does it benefit Obama to have a group register fake voters?

Why are the Dems so blind and feel obligated to an untruthful community organizer whose only claim to fame is one speecgh and being an ACORN cheerlewader???

McCain – Palin is not fading fast enough.

The repubs are doomed this year, no more of the same not this time.

Obama is smart guy he will shut is rumers down. Good luck mccain winning this debate useless

At a time in our History when we have just had our Wealth stolen by the Left Wing….

We are all very nervous about this "Cheater" who my steal this election as well!

I know if Obama wins I will want a full investigation done, especially after watching with my own eyes how he raped Lady Liberty in the primaries!

The Chicago Thugs are not to be trusted, they have no shame!

that' s like asking the FOX TO WATCH THE CHICKEN'S EGGS………GET REAL ONCE caucus cheaters.com ALWAYS A mis leader…… IN READING THESE BLOGGERS A WOMAN ASKED WHY DOES EVERYBODY THINK OBAMA IS A SOCIALIST……..ANSWER TRY THE ALINSKYITE GROUP// JIM WALLIS…..OR THOSE SEALED COLLEGE RECORDS[[[[[ i wonder what he studdied]]]]]

No fraud has been committed until a vote is cast.

Let the republicans do the worrying. They stool the vote the last two elections, and now they are worried about voter fraud? They are asking as the only people who will benefit would be the Democrats. If in any way the republicans thought they would benefit from this you wouldn't hear a word from them.

look into Obamas mothers past friends. i bet you will find some radical freinds. Ayers maybe? who knows.

THis election is truly about character.

McCain displays character
Obama is a character

Why is VA still a "toss-up" on your electoral map? Your own polls show it as a 12% advantage for Obama. Can you please fix this to accurately reflect polling data?

There were 2100 absentie balolots in the same handwriting said to be part of ACORN.
Wouldn't be just as easy for some McSame supporter to have done this to cause a big stir?
Give the GOP a chance to corrupt another election?
Slow the voting process in key states?

Wake up America,….this is not news!

McSame and his cronies have run out of options and are now in slash and burn territory!

Obama '08

Oh please. Keating is soooooo old. Why should Obama rein in ACORN when it's working for him? It got him the primary. God forbide they should go back and cull out the ineligible votes and find that Hillary was the real winner.

Rein them in? How? It's not like Obama controls ACORN. Can McCain reign in his supports who are talking about starting riots and killing Obama? I didn't think so.

The fact that Ayers was on a board that was sponsorded by a REPUBLICAN and a person that was good friends with Ronald Ragen and now indorces McCain. Does thta mean that they are all TERROREST. After all McCain has with held this information that means he was trying to keep it SECRET that is as bad a lieing about it.

I'm so sick of the lies and the false "connections" McCain keeps trying to make.

I'm also sick of people like TC who get their facts from Fox News and then spew them to the world as truth.

Q. When is McCain going to rein in his lobbyists, McPalin (although she's more like Cheney than McCain), the Klan that have been hanging out at his rallies, the people who are trying to commit voter fraud across the board in his honor??

A. HE'S NOT!

Again, pot calling the kettle black.

Not suggesting that the Dems are trying to steal the election, but when the Republicans stole the White House in 2000 and 2004 which led to this country now on her knees, where the hell was McCain???? I don't recall him objecting then. Suck it up old man. America wants change, and ACORN or no ACORN, they do not want 4 more years of the same.

John MCain; you need to slink away from this disgusting campaign with at least some dignity, don't you? Please, save yourself a little bit of respect and just be quiet. All you spout is trash and lies, and, after being lied to for eight years, we're pretty good at spotting them now. May you also lose your next election, too, for all of the downright dirty tricks you pulled. Sore loser.

THE KEATING 5 SHOULD BE BROUGHT UP TOMORROW EVENING, BUT OBAMA IS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THE COUNTRY THAN ATTACKING AND WHINING WITH SOME OLD MAN FOR 90 MINUTES!

Sick of Obama!

Voting McCain
Hillary 2012

If he's got nothing helpful to say then he shouldn't say anything at all. Better than slamming his opponent like a child every time he opens his mouth.

Perhaps CNN or the Media should also highlight the fact that McCain once supported this group. Furthermore, just because a voter is "registered", don't they still need proper identification to vote on the day?

WOW, McCain camp sinking to a new level-never thought they could get lower.

I liked the John McCain of the past. He was honorable.

His campaign team is not allowing John McCain to be himself.
It is sad to see a great Senator to act like this.

The McCain\Palin campaign team will try and link Obama to every negative story until Nov. 4th. They have nothing else left.

HILARIOUS…. after GOP rigging the Ohio vote in 2004 and the Florida vite in 2000, McCain has the nerve to talk about VOTER FRAUD?

GET A CLUE, OLD MAN

I'm just getting tired of hearing from McBush completely. He just moans and moans and moans about everything and never actually does anything to help. He's hell bent on slamming Obama at every oppurtunity and I, for one, am sick to death of hearing it.

MCCAIN, LET'S TALK ABOUT SILVER BANK AND IT'S FAILURE WHILE YOUR SON WAS CEO. MCCAIN'S SON WAS CEO OF SILVER BANK AND LEFT 2 MONTHS BEFORE IT CALAPSED IN AUGUST '08 AND THE HONORABLE SENATOR MCCAIN WAS IN ARIZONA EVERY WEEKEND DURING THIS TIME. HOW MUCH DID ANDREW MCCAIN PARACHUTE WITH AND WHY DIDN'T THE HONORABLE SENATOR ADVISE INVESTORS OF IT'S CALAPSE BEFORE THEY LOST THEIR MONEY. LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT INSTEAD OF AYERS.

McCain should tell this to himself.

McCain had no trouble fraternizing with ACORN in 2006 when their political interests coincided with his. Now, his campaign is writing e-mails in his name bashing ACORN as a tool of the Obama machine.

Maybe the Obama camp SHOULD check up on Acorn, for infiltration by
the Republicans.

Remember, the Democrats aren't the ones that we should be worried
about commiting voter fraud this year.

The Republicans on the other hand, just may have a reason . . . .

McCain is behind after all.

OLD MAN DIDN'T HAVE MUCH TO LOSE,

HE HAS LOST THE LITTLE HE HAD. WE

ARE IN A RECESSION & HE WANTS TO

DISCUSS A RADICAL WHO, BY THE WAY,

UNLIKE MCGREEDY, GOT AN EDUCATION& IS A

PROFESSOR & OBAMA WAS 8 YEARS OLD AT THE TIME.

YEA, THAT MAKES SENSE TO THOSE TWO SMALL

MONKEYS TRYING TO MATE WITH THAT FOOT BALL.

Whats the matter Republicans,not close enough this time to cheat with Diebold?They helped steal the last two elections for Republicans.

No I don't believe that those for Obama are blind followers. I do believe that McCain needs to be very careful he has way too many skeletons in his closet. Hopefully Obama will not take the bait and fall into a messy character debate with McCain. Again…It's the economy stupid, Tell me how you will help the country

The Republicans better not have too much fun pushing this Ayers and now this ACORN thing. Just give it a second thought. If you were a group of educated experienced political workers. And you were intent on defrauding the Vote. Would you really list the entire Dallas Cowboys Football Team on a stack of Voter Registrations and turn them in? A Third Grader would know better. Really now. This smacks of a set up. ACORN was infiltrated and sabotaged from within.
When a few people with working brains above an IQ of 80 get involved in this investigation. The truth will come out. Then the Republicans will have to eat another helping of crow as they have been doing all week.

Acorn is paid to register voters. In any system where the employees are paid on how many people they register there is going to be some who will submit false to gain the money.
The greed played part here rather than the affiliation to any political party.

Davis is one big stupid idiot. How are they going to point the finger at Obama for voter fraud. Obama is ahead, and would never pull a "republican stunt".

Republicans know voter fraud a little too well – isn't this what got Bush in the White House his second term? I believe it is.

McCain and his low-life camp are just sore that their "wanna-be leader" is losing.

OMG here we go again! ACORN does NOT work for the Dems, they works as a bi-partisan group to register as many voters as possible, regardless of party affiliations!! And let's be clear that voter registration fraud is NOT voter fraud!!! I can register Harry Potter and Voldemort, but unless Harry and the big V show up with valid ID, they AIN'T voting, people!!!

And is anyone else getting a little sick of McCain "calling on" and "challenging" Obama to repudiate or oppose things?? Who the hell does this guy think he is?? Senator McCain, President Obama has better things to do like talk to the American people about the ISSUES, like the economy. You must have a lot of time on your hands if you're getting miffed @ an organization who brought these false registrations to light in the first place!!

Obama needs to smile and say that the People of the United States deserve real answers not just slogans and old issues. then go on to detail his plan.

so, rick davis resurfaces….. give that money back to fannie and freddie yet ricky boy?

ACORN is under indictment or federal investigation in every swing state. hmmm…

Just because Obama's campain paid $800,000 to ACORN to help in voter registration drives doesn't prove a connection… to the OJ jury maybe. but anyone with a brain and not drinking red kool-aid can see right through it.

just remember whatever obama takes away from me today, he takes away from you tomorrow. sig heil!!

Where's the kitchen sink, McCain? Where's your interview on G. Gordon Liddy's radio show last november with you embracing him DEARLY? Where's the Hensley/mafia connection?

Get real, McCain. Your distractions are not working. We have computers, and we know how to use them.

Voting early day after tomorrow for Obama/Biden.

Here's what i don't get:
McCain – implicated and investigated in Keating 5 scandal.
Palin – implicated and investigated in Troopergate scandal.
Obama – just happens to know Ayers and Rezko. No investigation, no court case in which Obama is implicated.

So who would you rather stand next to: someone who may know a killer, or someone who was investigated for taking part in the killing? Please think about this… saying that someone sympathizes with bad people is one thing, but being investigated is a whole new animal. Don't speak it if you've done one worse.

CNN, please post me. It's been awhile…

I do not believe Rick Davis one bit… he is a BIGGEST CROOK! I am not sure what stunts he is pulling, I hope we have learned our lesson in 2000/2004….

Beware, get out and vote. This election is not over…Get out and VOTE!

Sen. McCain, why don't you try reining in Gov. Palin. Her impact is far more detrimental on the American voter and possibly to Sen. Obama.

The voter registration process has checks and balances, obviously, your campaign does not!

GO OBAMA/BIDEN

Just amazing.
They have nothing to run on so they want Senator Obama to "rein in" an organization they have no control over?

Hey John McCain, why don't you rein in that female dog you picked for a running mate?

IDIOTS

Please read the article entitled "Make-Believe Maverick" in the October 16th edition of the Rolling Stones magazine. Even though they're a popular music publication, they've had some remarkable insight into the political arena.

I dare you to read it "That one is a friend of Karl Marxs too"

I will either laugh or puke when obama tries to squirm his way out of this one.

i'll laugh first.

then i'll probably puke. how can Americans like a communist so much?

get ready to SHARE THE WEALTH america

In response to the article about McCain bringing up Ayers tomorrow night @ the debate (since CNN closes comments about 86 seconds after the article is posted):

Wow is he serious? Does he really want to open this floodgate?? Okay so he's got Ayers and Wright, fine. To which Obama can reply Liddy, Troopergate, Keating 5, Rick Renzi, US Council for World Freedom, Pastor Hagee and Pastor Muthee…

So once again Senator McCain, do you REALLY want to go there? Well bring it on, old man, better take an extra hit of Metamucil and screw your dentures on tight, it's gonna be a hell of a ride!

McCain is documented as supporting ACORN and even attended one of their conventions. Me thinks McCain is trying to plant a seed of conspiracy by constantly linking ACORN to Obama, as if Barack is personally responsible for ACORNS openly documented registration errors. This way McCain can cry foul after he loses the election.

So sad that people don't care if their candidate lies to them about their own [candidates] personal connections. They excuse him for everything for fear of being called a racist.

Keating 5 sure does call into question McCain's judgement, from say 20+ years ago. And given that he had fessed up then and was dimissed from the case by a Democrat leading the investigent isn't an equal parralel. Keating 5 is fair game insomuch as it highlights whether or not McCain learned something and did something to fix the mistakes he made. Democrats do not own the copywright on evolution of thought.

Obama has flat out lied about his relationship. "Just a guy in the neighbor" is not someone you sit on boards with or who launches your career from their living room. Nor is "just a guy from the neighborhood" someone who puts you in charge of managing and doling out millions of dollars to organizations like ACORN when you are supposed to be directing it to education.

But blind followers will believe what they want to often without question or doing a simple google search.

I find it disturbing that for a country as great as ours we do not have better candidates for our most important office.
