I haven’t read all the responses so forgive me if this has already been said: One of the goals of anarchists and other extremist groups is to disrupt the voting process of this country, casting doubt on the legitimacy of anyone who is elected. For example if McCain wins, all the evidence of voter fraud sets the stage for another round of “did he really win”, or was it fraud? Same for Obama.
Extremist groups would like nothing more than to set Americans against Americans. This type of action sows the seeds of doubt, and is an insidious way to raise the prospect for violence after the election.
Probably not all Acorn members are extremists or anarchists. But some must be, given this activity in their midst.
It is to the everlasting shames of our elected officials that they do not allow the creation of a system for checking for a valid ID at voting time, and for allowing time to properly vet all new voter registrations prior to election day. My take, if you register too late, you run the risk of being denied to vote. It happened to me once, and my registration was legitimate. I say toss out all the late registrations. We need an election process we can trust, or we are no better than a banana republic.
