Sorry McCain supporters. Your candidate has run a campaign that would make John Kerry proud.

I know it's tough for some of us to imagine a black man as President but seriously, deal with it.
It simply won't happen..! Obama is gonna get shipped back to where ever he decides he really came from...

They are rumors based on the investigation of ACORN. So far, there has been nothing that implicates Obama. As I wrote on another thread, there are several organizations like this in which funds were misappropriated. One of them is the well known Points of Light which was a pet project of Bush-41. (and he's still Honorary Chairman)

If people are spreading these rumors, maybe it's to distract attention from the Troopergate scandal. Nothing has been reported on the news or in any reliable publication. (not even Fox!)

The person who posted it cites his source as 'a little birdy told me'. Real credible.

It is near the wire and McCain, just like when it was the waning days for Hillary it is time for the smears. Oh yeah McCain rescued the bailout over the weekend.

I want to add something. Palin accepted contributions from people who have been implicated in a corruption scandal. Maybe that's another reason people want to attack Obama this week. The GOP announced on Friday that she will donate that money to charity. It just keeps getting better and better!

Obviously desperate ramblings of anti-Obama people who with each passing week, are beginning to taste those sour grapes.

As a non Obama supporter, here's the story. But it's old news.

Obama linked in Rezko corruption case :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Barack Obama (http://www.suntimes.com/news/politics/obama/749138,obama20web.article - broken link)
