Well, it took 'em long enough. The FBI is investigating ACORN nationwide to see if there's any links between the voter fraud allegations in more than a dozen states to see if it's a coordinated national scam.

ACORN's excuse?

ACORN has said the "vast majority" of its workers are conscientious, but some might have turned in duplicate applications or provided fake information to pad their pay. Workers caught submitting false information have been fired, ACORN officials say.

ACORN says laws in a number of states require it to submit all registration cards it collects even dubious ones, so its workers segregate applications with missing, suspicious or false information and flag them so state election officials can quickly check them further.

Some workers? Lightworkers perhaps. How many are bogus? Thousands. Tens of thousands?

Heck, in Lake County they gave up trying to figure out because 100% of the ACORN collected registrations were bogus (2,100 of first 2,100 were bogus). Still want to stick with just a few nuts?

That is a recipe for a riot that makes 1968 look like a Sunday School picnic.

If he loses, in the future he'll have to run on his record, which in four years time will be even worse than his current one.

And by that time, all the ACORN connections and missing years in his CV will have been filled in.

So while he'll stay in the Senate (his war chest is now huge), he'll likely never get another chance to be Presideent this good again.

And if he tries any funny stuff like encouraging riots, etc, his chance of ever getting the nomination again will be zero.

So I expect him to play nice, at least publically.

If that's the case, you can expect some global agitation to be created by him and his pal Ahmedinejad soon to drive up prices.

That's going to be difficult, we are now talking about having to drive prices up by 20-30% and keeping them there. Demand is way down due to the reaction to the initial run up in price this year, and will likely stay that way until we dig out of this financial collapse. The cuts that OPEC and friends would have to make to drive prices back up are going to be unpalatable to them to say the least, and forcing a crisis is a risky proposition at best.

You don't spend $400 million, including illegal foreign contributions, and mobilize the entire leftist army of kooks to commit rampant fraud and spread disinformation, and then just quietly concede like Nixon in 1960, for the good of the country. As far as he's concerned, his personal desires and the good of the country are identical. If he loses, I expect it to be Christmas at the earliest before it's finally decided.

re: #143 lawhawk

European media derisive of Palin - calling her the half-baked Alaskan.

That's Gov. Palin for starters... and it goes downhill from there.

Does the media bother to note that Joe Biden is the dumbest man in the Senate, and every other day goes out and proves it? Can you say a three letter word? J-O-B-S. Heh. It's a double standard alright, and those Eurotwits aren't going to like it when the Obama juggernaught finds itself adrift after losing what they thought was a surefire win of the Presidency.

And this same media will crow that it was racism that did in Obama; not Obama's socialism.

let these cowardly socialists crow. it is easier for them to deride sarah and call us racists than look at their own failed systems and malaise.
it is so unimportant what the euroweenies think of us.

Lot's of funny here, but there's something kind of sad in a fallen old man. I remember when Dan Rather (and Walter Cronkite for that matter) were people to be admired. I can be as stubborn and prideful as the next person and I hope I never make that big of a mistake in my old age.

I never admired Dan Rather. He was a liar from day one (Nov. 22, 1963) when he reported that the Zapruder film depicted Kennedy being thrown violently forward after being shot from behind. Years later when the Zapruder film was shown on Geraldo Rivera's late-night TV show, it became obvious that Dan Rather was a damn liar. And I didn't like the way Rather brazenly disrespected President Nixon when he was the CBS White House correspondant.

Clowes gave me a message today about Daniel's funny cigarettes and Smith is psuhing to sugar coat it. Daniel wasn't here during rating period and I don't have any feedback from the network. I will not rate. Powers is not happy today either.

Zombie has a point. So much of a point, in fact, that voters will continue to claim to support Obama by actually voting for him when they get to the polls–that’s how pervasive the methodological bias is! We need a way to disaggregate votes in a way that permits us to separate genuine expressions of preference (which, as has been documented, are overwhelmingly Republican) from spurious ones (which are Democratic).

They wish for us to drop our core American values, and instead take on their hollow, secular, liberal values: its a Culture War!

The left in this Country, and around the world, do not simply disagree with the "red states" but instead arrogantly look down upon them with disgust, and derision.

Governor Palin is AMERICA, old school America and it is because of this that they hate her.

re: #152 doppelganglander

I agree this is his best, if not only, shot at the presidency, . . .

Personally, I think he ran not expecting to get the nomination, but to set in motion the plans for a future, more serious, run. But as The Chicago Way played out in the caucuses, it started to dawn on him that 'I have a shot at this'. He was so unprepared by his success, as evidenced by him not even trying to vote centrist on the things that matter to his liability, 'Joe Middle America', or even pretend to be bi-partisan in any way during his brief Senate tenure. I really think his success this campaign season surprised him as much as it surprised me. But there is also the possibility that he saw a Hillary Clinton win this year as a too long a delay (8 years) in his game plan, so he decided to roll the dice now. As noted above, he really has the Left Lunatic Fringe completely motivated (as shown by the ACORN voter registration scandal, as well as other thugish acts). But no matter what Geraldine Ferraro may say now as a good Democrat, her words during the primaries -- basically calling Obama an affirmative-action candidate -- were one of those 'accidental truth' moments. I also think there's a lot of manipulation, and not just a little luck, in Obama being where he is right now: A heartbeat away from the Presidency.

re: #200 Dianna

W'hat do you m'ean?

re: #193 buzzsawmonkey

My experience in Paris is that if you ask someone in English whether they speak English, you will get a contemptuous "non!" regardless of that person's linguistic capabilities; if you ask the same question in French, you will get a grudging "un peu," and will be treated with moderate disdain; if you are willing to attempt to fumble your way along in French, regardless of how bad it is, people are usually willing to not only help you with reasonable courtesy, but will address you in perfectly adequate English with a good grace.

Which in my opinion is as it should be; it is arrogant as hell to show up in a foreign country and presume that everyone should speak your language for your convenience. If you are willing to show that you are respectful enough of the host country to attempt their language, the French--even in Paris--are for the most part quite pleasant.

I think you are the first Lizard that has been able to echo my feelings about France exactly. I've tried to present this idea over and over here on LGF over the years, but some people will swear that it's all their fault.

Not as bad as Morley Safer:

The Columbia University School of Journalism in New York City once staged a very high-profile seminar to discuss the proper role of reporters in a war.

Suppose that during the Vietnam War, the Vietcong allow an American network TV correspondent and his camera crew to go along on a mission…and to film the fighting from the Communist side. After a few days, the Vietcong soldiers get in position along a trail to ambush an American patrol that is approaching.

The panel was asked to discuss this question: “What’s the proper role of the American TV crew?”

At that Columbia University seminar, Morley Safer -- who had been a CBS correspondent in Vietnam -- said that if he had been with that camera crew, he would have filmed what happened and not tried to warn the American patrol…his role as a correspondent was to observe, not to participate.

I had a wonderful experience with a DC cabbie. He was born and raised in DC. Acted like a tour guide for two hours and then, after driving us to Arlington, Embassy Row, Pennsylvania Ave, the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, and a gift shop, dropped us at the airport and said "20.00" We pushed 50 on him but refused to take more. Said he had fun showing off his hometown to someone who was interested rather than some yuppie just hurrying from here to there and there to here.

re: #193 buzzsawmonkey

I speak French, and have never really had any rude experiences in France, but I disagree with you about showing up in foreign countries and expecting people to speak your language. If your language is English, I think you have a reasonable expectation that people in the service or tourist industry will understand you. English is the lingua franca nowadays. Just like Arabic in France.
