I found this article lying around my desktop, from the election of 2004. Looks like BHO's old friends haven't really changed their colors much. As in 2004, ACORN is currently being investigated in at least 14 states, in this election cycle. Originally, this article was published on AmericanDaily.com and can still be found there.

The country is gearing up for the very real possibility of the 2000 election fiasco replaying itself, but even worse. In that election between then-Governor George W. Bush and Vice President Al Gore, what followed was 36 days of numerous court challenges, sensationalized rhetoric, and a weakening of the political process under the over-simplified and misleading mantra of "count every vote"-- regardless of circumstance.
By circumstance, I mean laws. The outlook of the two major political parties concerning elections and votes falls into two vastly different political ideologies.
Democrats, for the most part, feel that every vote should be counted, as anything less would be a theft of someone's civil rights. The "law" has become an afterthought--if not always in application, then certainly in spirit.
Republicans, by and large, want every vote counted as well, but within the law, as voting is considered a privilege as well as a legal right.
Both are compelling arguments that are presented before the public for due consideration.
