[QUOTE=fukushimajin;2842024]The story itself has some legitimacy but would never appear on a national news broadcast if it didn't fit into Fox's other themes of scary "ACORN" voters and the threat of community organizers.

I'll clue you in: Black Panthers holding billyclubs in front of polling stations are going to attract negative attention, particularly when filmed. Who knows, maybe that was several million dollars worth of McCain advertising? All I know was it happened very early in the day.
