WASHINGTON (AP) - The FBI is investigating whether the community activist group ACORN helped foster voter registration fraud around the nation before the presidential election.

A senior law enforcement official confirmed the investigation to The Associated Press on Thursday. A second senior law enforcement official says the FBI was looking at results of recent raids on ACORN offices in several states for any evidence of a coordinated national scam.

Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity because regulatons forbid discussing ongoing investigations particularly so close to an election.

ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, says it has registered 1.3 million young people, minorities and poor and working-class voters—most of whom tend to be Democrats.

My fear is that this ammounts to a couple of guys in suits sticking their head in the door and asking, "are you cheating? No? Ok."

This is just to cover Obama so he can say the FBI investigated and found nothing. He won fair and square with no voter fraud.

I am afraid you are right. I hope you are wrong, but I am terrified you are not. Then again if ACORN is organized well it will look like seperate cells opperating without direction from the top.
