BTW, I worked with ACORN as well on national lobbying coalitions over time, particularly on CDBG issues.
I didnt particularly like their lobbying style...a bit too aggressive and confrontational for me and some others in the coalition. But when hardball was needed, they were the first to step to the plate.
In much the same manner as other advocacy organizations play hardball...the NRA comes to mind..or even AARP....those grannies can be bitch to lobby with or against. And both have massive PR campaigns on their issues of interest that dwarf anything ACORN does.
That doesnt make them unethical or crooked or their acts illegal.
