Per Ben Smith from POLITICO
Acorn folds The national group ACORN is folding, an official there, Kevin Whelan, said in an emailed statement:
The ACORN Association Board met on Sunday March 21 and approved a set of steps to responsibly manage the process of bringing its operations to a close over the coming months. These include:
* Closing ACORN’s remaining state affiliates and field offices by April 1st; and * Developing a plan to resolve all outstanding debts, obligations and other issues.
ACORN’s members have a great deal to be proud of--from promoting to home ownership to helping rebuild New Orleans, from raising wages to winning safer streets, from training community leaders to promoting voter participation—ACORN members have worked hard to create stronger to communities, a more inclusive democracy, and a more just nation.
ACORN was always a very decentralized group, with a great deal of its activity and power concentrated in local chapters from New York to Arkansas -- the strongest of which will survive. The collapse of the national group, though, reflects the impact of a conservative assault that never prompted any prosecutions.

I'd say they are regrouping under another name to gear up for 2012. I do not believe acorn will go away. Wasn't there some news about them changing their name already . Acorn will be out there in 2012 signing up people to vote for Barrack again.

The shill's name changes... the scam does not. The mark is us! This is the way they do it in Chicago... and now thanks to the sponsorship of their sponsor and protector, the Pretender, this is they way they do it nation wide. From our pockets... into theirs.
