after finding out O'keefe lied about that whole NPR-sting.. it's amazing this still passed..

They don't care...remember they're the .01% who know what's going on. Not the 99.9% who follow them blindly.

Remember, Acorn was shuttered after O'Keefe pulled one of his pranks.

Yet, the Republican base still fears them.

Fear of ACORN stealing elections runs so deep in GOP circles that a quarter of Republicans still believe the group will “steal the election” in 2012 — even now that it's been a year since the organization folded.

A new survey from Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling found that 25 percent of the Republican primary voters nationwide think the defunct community organizing group will try to “steal” votes for Democrats. Just 43 percent believe ACORN will not be able to swing votes and 32 percent are not sure.

Among Republicans who believe ACORN is still a threat in 2012, Sarah Palin is the favored presidential candidate — getting 20 percent of the their support. Newt Gingrich comes second among the ACORN-fearing, getting 19 percent, following by Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney with 16 percent apiece.

Pollster Tom Jensen noted that while “25 percent may seem like a high percentage to think that an organization no longer in existence will manage to steal a Presidential election but it's less than half the number who thought that two years ago.”

The group shut down last March after getting bombarded by the right over a series of videos showing ACORN employees in an unflattering light, including one video in which an ACORN employee was shown offering business advice to a conservative posing as a pimp.

The poll of 600 Republican primary voters has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.1 percentage points.

They're not just dumb. They're shit-eating dumb.
