Yes, but why is ACORN sending people to prisons to get registrations?

Or, for that matter, why is ACORN sending people to register the same

You can blame an incident here or there on bad workers, but when it  
becomes epidemic it seems to be time to look at the organization to  
see why there is such systemic fraud.

Same goes for YPM, a lower profile republican group having fraud issues.
