Well, its an exciting day so far in the phony "war on voter fraud" being waged by the RNC and McCain campaigns.  first the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a lower court decision on disenfranchising over 200,000 new Ohio voters.  Now the Obama campaign has requested the Justice Department add the highly questionable "investigation" of ACORN to the list of items to be pursued by Special Prosecutor Norah Dannehy in the DoJ's illegal firing of U.s. Attorneys.

"With this voter fraud [investigation], we're seeing an unholy alliance of law enforcement and the ugliest form of partisan politics," Bob Bauer, an elections lawyer with the Obama camp, said on a conference call with reporters just now. Bauer compared the decision to launch the investigation with the US attorneys scandal, in which several US attorneys were fired for their unwillingess to pursue politically charged cases, including voter fraud, with sufficient aggression to satisfy the Bush administration.
