Bertha Lewis, interim chief organizer for the allegedly nonpartisan ACORN, released a video on YouTube (see video embedded below) endorsing Barack Obama for president. Here are the revelant passages:

I want to thank everyone out there for defending ACORN against the scurrilous right-wing attacks and smears. That’ll teach them to attack a community organizer. [...] Look, when organizers get attacked we do what we do best: we organize and we vote. And if you live in New York there’s one more simple thing you can all do to help ACORN: vote for the community organizer Barack Obama on the Working Families Party ballot line. [...] Voting for Barack is good but voting for him on the Working Families Party line is better. Vote change like you mean it, people. Don’t get lost in the Democratic sauce. [...]
