Acorn, for all the hoopla, all the grand expose', had a few of it's employees "not follow'in da rules", but that seemingly allowed the indictment of the entire organization...and although voter fraud was never proven, the old horse beaten rhetoric makes sure that when Acorn is mentioned...that's one of the first things thought of. Misappropriations, to the tune that was strummed continually, not really.
