While I believe that certain items from his past like Rev. Wright isn't really that big of an issue (I feel this way b/c I feel you could find crazy shit from EVERY politicians background that seems askew) I feel that this story (ACORN) and the Ayers case def show that Obama has had some really bad lapses of intelligence when it comes to who he picks as friends and allies.

ACORN is all over the news right now for cases of voter fraud yet you barely hear the ties between Obama and this organization see to be missing, or at least dismissed as "C" level news. Thats fine, I just don't lke the hypocracy. If McCain had ties to ACORN or Ayers it would be front page news.
