I'm not voting for Barrack so that his role in ACORN wouldn't sway me....

However from the WSJ:

"Acorn officials bill themselves as nonpartisan community organizers merely interested in giving a voice to minorities and the poor. In reality, Acorn is a union-backed, multimillion-dollar outfit that uses intimidation and other tactics to push for higher minimum wage mandates and to trash Wal-Mart and other non-union companies."

I might like these guys after all....
