The GOP were scared of ACORN. This is what John Fund was saying on Fox earlier today. I guess they would camp out in front of congressmen's homes and just be obnoxious in general. Oh, I remember now. The GOP congressmen were fearful of being accused of racism if they went after ACORN. That was the major consideration.

At the moment, Republicans are almost an endangered specie and can't do much of anything about ACORN. The only thing ACORN and Democrats have to fear is whether the voting public casts their votes in opposition to cheaters.

There is huge fear amongst groups and people when it is so easy for some to scream racism at the drop of a hat - especially when the media is out to get you too.

Our side needs to cast away the fear and stand up for what it believes.
