UPDATE ~ RUMOR OR TRUE? US attorney's office in Chicago is looking into a RICO investigation of ACORN ~ AND the Obama campaign
Update: I did a google search on this story and found more about it at Free Republic. The thread is 350 pages long and there is some meat to the rumor. The entire DNC and Dem leader all the way up are said to be involved. See my post below from Free Republic article.
------------------------

You know these online betting sites where you can buy stock in the outcome of a sports contest or an event such as a presidential election? Last night somebody bet big on Obama to lose, in about a 20 minute period, his stock was at about 70 to 74, and it went down to the low sixties within a 20-minute period before it rebounded. Somebody was shorting Obama. This came on the heels of a rumor circuiting -- not my rumor; it's out there that the US attorney's office in Chicago is looking into a RICO investigation of ACORN and the Obama campaign. RICO is the racketeering legislation, or statute. Now, right now it is just a rumor, and I haven't seen any more about it since late last night, early this morning. I'm not drawing any correlation between what happened on this Intrade site with this rumor. But all of the cheating that's going on, the fundraising, $4 million has been raised by people that nobody can identify because Obama found a little loophole out there in McCain-Feingold that if you contribute less than $200 bucks, you don't have to mention your name. People are donating from all over the world, apparently, and there are people like Goodwill or Dogood, whatever, multiple places. They also found now the Dallas Cowboys roster registered to vote by ACORN in Missouri as well as Nevada. Cleveland, Cuyahoga County looking into this, Indianapolis, 105% of the population of Indianapolis is registered to vote.

Tonight we talked to someone who works in the federal courts here in Chicago.

The buzz in those corridors is that federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has been leading a team of FBI investigators in 10 states working on a RICO case.

Today, it was announced that ACORN is being investigated in 10 states.

That’s one Hell of a coincidence.

We asked why Fitzgerald would be involved in this, because he’s the prosecutor on the Tony Rezko case and we aren’t aware of ACORN being investigated in Illinois.

We were told that ACORN was investigated in Illinois years ago, and it was a Fitzgerald case then. This means ACORN’s activities today, involving a conspiracy to commit multi-state voter fraud on SoetorObama’s behalf, are an extension of that previous ACORN case.

Our source in federal courts said, “Any crime that involves more than two people and is carried out across state lines qualifies as a corrupt organization. The fact that those “Goodwill” donations were made in Texas and received at Obama headquarters in Chicago or Washington means it qualifies for RICO.”

The “Goodwill donations” referred to above are the $228 million in undocumented, unverified campaign contributions the SoetorObama camp has received — which the McCain campaigned filed a complaint to the FEC on this past Monday.

We’ve also heard that the Clinton campaign filed complaints to the FBI and other federal agencies over SoetorObama’s fraud in the Iowa, Texas and other caucuses: voter intimidation, registration fraud, and other illegal activities.

The last thing we were told tonight in regards to all of this was that “the meme here is a tying together of all these various threads. That’s what you will see in the last weeks of the campaign: all things being tied together”.

If everything rumored here is true, it looks like David Axelrod, Howard Dean, Donna Brazile, SoetorObama himself, and possibly even Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid were all involved, together, in massive RICO violations, and thus federal fraud, if the DNC and party leadership knew what the SoetorObama campaign and ACORN were up to and allowed it to proceed. Knowledge of federal crimes being committed makes all parties accessories to those crimes — and part of the conspiracy to defraud the public.

THAT would certainly be one Hell of a shock tomorrow morning.

This would be the mother of all october surprises if true.

Dont forget, Nancy and the Dems were trying to devert $20 Billion to ACORN in the Bail Out bill. $20 Billion.

If true it sure would shed a lot of light on how the clintons have been reluctant to come out and trash mccain or jump in the tank with obama. Also sheds light on the way mccain has been running his campaign. They know Barry is going down hard. Maybe?
