My thinking on that

The Fox News Channel has been spending a lot of time covering the ACORN voter registration controversy. I'm more concerned with the long term implications of potential voter registration fraud than how it affects a specific election.
 
Despite the questions, 2008 will be a fairly decided election that selects a legitimate president just as the controversial 2000 election didn't make Bush's win illegitimate, imo.
 
Here is the important lesson from ACORN: We need uniform standards for elections involving federal offices. I'd love to see election reform be part of the next president's agenda.
 
There's an easy fix for voter registration: Universal registration. The government could automatically register everyone once they reach voting age.

We could also allow for registration though our annual tax filings. A box to check off to be registered to vote seems too simple, doesn't it?

Our beautiful soon to be Vice President Sarah Palin is also would be better at leading our nation in the future after a McCain Presidency than Senator Barak Obama would be in leading our nation in the future starting in January 2009 because of three areas which are as follows: ideology , experience, and accomplisments. Ideologically she is a conservative. Experientially she has two years of executive administrative governing experience . When it comes to accomplishments she accomplished 3 major things which are as follows: government reform, the state budget and the economy, and wise use of natural resources. She reformed government by standing up to the big oil companies by breaking up the monopoly on power and resources. She insisted on competition and basic fairness which ended the control that the oil companies had on the state, and thereby returning control of the state back to the people. She lead well in the state budget by generating a surplus which came about by vetoing a half billion dollars of wasteful spending. Economically under her leadership she brought about the largest private-sector infrastructure project in North American history. She also suspended the state fuel tax, and when oil and gas prices went up dramatically, and filled up the state treasury, she sent a large share of that revenue back where it belonged - directly to the people of Alaska . On natural resources she has shown great leadership by beginning a nearly forty billion dollar natural gas pipeline to help lead America to energy independence, so please vote John McCain for President
