They are making a big deal about it sure. Bigger then it really is. But it is still a problem.
4 registrations in 25,000?! Nowhere near as big a “problem” as this:

McCain Employing GOP Operative Accused of Voter Registration Fraud”
John McCain’s campaign has directed $175,000 to the firm of a Republican operative accused of massive voter registration fraud in several states.
According to campaign finance records, a joint committee of the McCain-Palin campaign, the RNC and the California Republican Party, made a $175,000 payment to the group Lincoln Strategy in June for purposes of “registering voters.” The managing partner of that firm is Nathan Sproul, a renowned GOP operative who has been investigated on multiple occasions for suppressing Democratic voter turnout, throwing away registration forms and even, once, spearheading efforts to get Ralph Nader on ballots so as to hinder the Democratic ticket.
In a letter to the Justice Department last October, House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers said that that Sproul’s alleged activities “clearly suppress votes and violate the law.”
That Sproul would come under the employment umbrella of the McCain campaign - the Republican National Committee has also separately paid Lincoln Strategy at least $37,000 for voter registration efforts this cycle - is not terribly surprising. Sproul, who has donated nearly $30,000 to McCain’s campaign, has been in the good graces of GOP officials for the past decade despite charges of ethical and potentially legal wrongdoing.

But I feel like the “Mickey Mouse” type of thing has gone on anyway, ACORN or no ACORN. There are always dumb or rebellious people who are going to do things like that. Or am I wrong?
McCain is reaching for straws….typical Republican stuff!
removing hundreds of thousands of citizens from the voting rolls is not “straws” though
machines that flip votes from Democrat to Republican candidates is not “straws” either – and it NEVER flips the other way, so it ain’t “machine malfunction”

referring to his rhetoric about O being socialist etc..
I am getting so sick of McCain saying Acorn has committed voter fraud, when voting has not even taking place. Registration fraud is not the same and the counties do there job and check fradualent registrations than everything is fine. I turned in three voter registrations forms for other people, so if one of them wrote the wrong information on them would I be liable?
