Obamist “Mickey Mouse” election insurance program hits a snag as multiple law enforcement agencies investigate allegations of widespread ACORN voter registration fraud.
Could look bad, given Obama’s deep ties with ACORN. Even deeper than his (known) ties with unrepentent ex-terrorist Ayers.
No worries. Just report it as a McCain smear. And dismiss it with a disparagement of poor people and some exasperation about the notion anyone would let ”Mickey Mouse” vote. ACORN roundup starts with AP’s “giant mud ball.”
Accusations of voter fraud have hurled a giant mud ball into an already messy presidential campaign, with Republicans alleging that Democrat Barack Obama has close ties to an activist group accused of compiling fake registration forms, including ones for the starting lineup of the Dallas Cowboys — submitted in Nevada.
Let me get this striaght. That’s a Republican mud ball?
But two hours after the McCain campaign teleconference Friday afternoon, ACORN held one of its own and accused Republicans of playing dirty politics and of trying to keep America’s less fortunate voters, who tend to be Democrats, from the polls on Nov. 4.
“If you can’t stop the 1.3 million people from getting on the rolls, at least shoot the messenger,” said ACORN spokesman Brian Kettenring. “There is absolutely no doubt in our minds that the attention being paid by the right is tremendously disproportionate to the problem.”
That might be a good place to note that in recent presidential and congressional elections, a few thousand votes here or there … AP doesn’t go there. Back to the Republican mudball.
Obama and two other lawyers in 1995 represented ACORN in a lawsuit against the state of Illinois to make voter registration easier. During this year’s primary, Obama hired a firm with ties to the group for a massive get-out-the-vote effort.
In response to salvos from the McCain campaign, Obama’s team shot right back, calling the attacks “false claims (that) are nothing more than another dishonorable, shameful attempt to divert voters’ attention from the unprecedented challenges facing their families and our nation,” spokesman Tommy Vietor said.
OK, so we’ve established that he does have ties to the people who are acccused of widespread voter fraud. Here’s NY Post on the nature of the get-out-the-vote effort, by the way.
CLEVELAND - A man at the center of a voter-registration scandal told The Post yesterday he was given cash and cigarettes by aggressive ACORN activists in exchange for registering an astonishing 72 times, in apparent violation of Ohio laws.
“Sometimes, they come up and bribe me with a cigarette, or they’ll give me a dollar to sign up,” said Freddie Johnson, 19, who filled out 72 separate voter-registration cards over an 18-month period at the behest of the left-leaning Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.
“The ACORN people are everywhere, looking to sign people up. I tell them I am already registered. The girl said, ‘You are?’ I say, ‘Yup,’ and then they say, ‘Can you just sign up again?’ ” he said.
It’s OK, Josh Marshall at Talking Points Memo has prepared some talking points:
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.
Wow. He makes it sound like hundreds, even thousands of bogus registrations in key states might be used by Republicans to support a claim that, in the event of an Obama win, the election was stolen. I’m a little surprised, a month ahead of a critical election, he has such a cavalier attitude toward efforts to … steal an American election. But it turns out ACORN is not at fault. They weren’t trying to steal the election, They wanted to buy it, and got sold a false bill of goods. Marshall explains:
ACORN registers lots of lower income and/or minority voters. They operate all across the country and do a lot of things beside voter registration. What’s key to understand is their method. By and large they do not rely on volunteers to register voters. They hire people — often people with low incomes or even the unemployed. This has the dual effect of not only registering people but also providing some work and income for people who are out of work. But because a lot of these people are doing it for the money, inevitably, a few of them cut corners or even cheat.
Dishonest poor people did it. OK, Marshall’s blaming the victims. Victims of society, that is. Only a few of them, though. A few dozen, a few hundred, who the heck knows, or cares.
I’ve always had questions about whether this is a good way to do voter registration. And Democratic campaigns usually keep their distance.
Why get your hands dirty with all those grubby, dishonest poor people when ACORN will do it for you?
But here’s the key. This is fraud against ACORN.
ACORN has been victimized by victims of society.
They end up paying people for registering more people then they actually signed up. If you register me three times to vote, the registrar will see two new registrations of an already registered person and the ones won’t count. If I successfully register Mickey Mouse to vote, on election day, Mickey Mouse will still be a cartoon character who cannot go to the local voting station and vote.
Maybe not Mickey Mouse. But Gloria Guidry and Linda Hill of Houston voted in the presidential primary in March, and they, like 4,462 other registered voters in Harris County, were dead. KPRC2’s report doesn’t indicate whether there is an ACORN involvement in hte Houston matter, but it does speak to Marshall’s Mickey Mouse viewpoint.

No reason why Mickey Mouse should not vote in an election when dead people do it already. Nor is there any reason why Obama donors Good Will and Doodad Pro should not vote also. No doubt their absentee ballots have already come to ACORN offices in the proper states. Alternatively some of the vote early, vote often voters Dems bus around to multiple precincts with multiple IDs will vote for them.
Obama paid ACORN to register voters. ACORN submits thousands of fake registrations to the election offices, more than can be examined and checked before the election. Lots of fakes will get through. Every fake disenfranchises a real voter. And the liberals dismiss that as irrelevant. The left really does believe that “the end I want justifies any means to achieve it.”
