5. CNN has been misrepresenting and spreading the republican lies about ACORN for the last
couple weeks

In fact CNN has also been right in the front pounding on the Ayer's story, finding women who say they were Hillary supporters now voting for mccain, finding African Americans saying they won't vote for Obama, and talking about the so-called Bradley effect

The problem is the MSM spewing the RNC lies, and not allowing an equal time rebutal from the other side

All of these stories that CNN is bringing up have already been screened through the primaries and they had no merit

Wait until they revisit Wright and tony reizo(sic)

We are not just up against the republicans, but the MSM media also

6. Good TPM article on ACORN
Link: http://talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/223436.php

Excerpt: "The Republican party is grasping on to the ACORN story as a way to delegitimize what now looks like the probable outcome of the November election. It is also a way to stoke the paranoia of their base, lay the groundwork for legal challenges of close outcomes in various states and promote new legal restrictions on legitimate voting by lower income voters and minorities. The big picture is that these claims of 'voter fraud' are themselves a fraud, a tool to aid in suppressing Democratic voter turnout....

"The essence of McCain's campaign now appears to amount to prepping McCain's base to believe they didn't really lose the election. The election was stolen from them by Barack and his army of gangsters and black street hustlers."
