This is why she won Ohio and almost won Texas, and why she will win Indiana. It's probably why she appears "more electable" in November according to some polls.

Way to screw with the process Rush.

Voting for someone you don't support is lying. Lying is still a sin (as far as I know). Why would anyone listen to someone who encourages you to lie? It makes no sense to me at all.

Too bad this hasn't gotten much mainstream media attention. I listen to this chatter on talk radio all the time. On Friday a gentleman from Texas called in to Hannity's radio show to let us all know that Hillary's popular vote win would not have happened had Operation Chaos not worked. I hope the Supers are paying attention, as it significantly diminishes what she calls her ability to win the big states.

If they can cause it to happen in a large state such as TEXAS and OHIO. They can have their way with people of INDIANA. It is just unbelieveable that common US population cannot think logically and make a decision on their own. They have to rely on a lowest of low life person like RUSH LIMBAUGH. No wonder the US economy has faltered because we stopped using common sense

I heard on CNN last night that republicans would now prefer to run against Obama because they feel McCain can win over him. The idea of republicans wanting to run against Clinton because they feel that they could win over her is now nil and void. They see Clinton as the stronger candidate now and feel Obama would be the easier candidate to beat. So CNN check back from your shows last night and report the correct thing that was said by the republicans. Please do not give out old news to cover up Obama's weakness against the republicans. Clinton is now the stronger candidate and we all can see that except those ignorant Obama supporters who feel that he can do no wrong.

The very idea of this makes me sick. How can we have a true democracy in this country when things like this take place? Republicans who actively engage in sabbotage and claim to be patriots and Christians should be shot with one of their beloved guns afforded to them by the second amendment.

THIS IDEA SHOULD SHOW VOTERS WHO THE McCAIN CAMPAIGN IS REALLY AFRAID OF.

Typical neo-con tactic. Cheat the system which was designed to allow HONEST people contribute to the democratic process. Instead Rush advocates sabotage. What a jerk.

Seems fitting to me since we all know that Hillary has been campaigning for the republican vote. That is the reason for the Super Delegates. Their job is to exercise their judgement in these things in case republicans try to cause chaos. aif it does turn out that republicans give Hillary a win, then I suspect that the Superdelegates will throw their support behind Obama to throw off this so called chaos.

Rush "the drug attack" Limbaughs story is old news that came out before Obama's pastor came in the picture. I guarantee now the Republicans want a piece of Obama because they will destroy him. Obama has no shot in winning the White House.(Thanks Jerimiah Wright)
Democrats should be focused on battleground states like Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Florida, California, New York. etcc(Hillary States)..
If Obama the two faced smoke and mirrors politician is the nominee, I will be one of those democrats voting red for the first time.
Go Hillary

Obama has created his own chaos.

Whether I agree with Rush Limbaugh's views or not, messing with the democracy of the United States is very unamerican and disgusting.

and they have the nerve to say that Obama is anti-patriotic because of the lack of a flag pin. And what of this man's attempt to distort and taint the basic democratic process of free-will? That's as ANTI-American as it gets…

There's a sacredness to the electoral process in this country, otherwise put us down on the level of elections like those held in countries like Venezuela, Nigeria, Kenya, Haiti…. fraud and more fraud.

Maybe we should exile Rush for being a threat to the purity of our democratic process…. Hey, I'll vote for that.

This is so undemocratic that I can't believe it's allowed. Now I totally understand why most states won't allow you to vote in the primaries unless you're a registered party voter. Ridiculous, but not unusual for the likes of Limbaugh and "conservatives" to play dirty.

this is exactly why she won PA, and Ohio, he has people so full of hate and wants to destroy Obama, he knows he is the best candidate and he knows so do the GOP and clinton That Senator Obama is the strongest candidate thus their joint effort to knock him down

I am telling you she can not win, she took PA thanks to Rush limbaugh……… they are laughing at the democrats and at her, because she thinks she can win, and she can not…………..

See how smart republlicans are.
They are able to legally obey the idiotic rules the DNC's put in place for their Primaries.
Do we want Dems in the White House that put Laws into effect that have loopholes the size of Hillary's Hair?

Rush Limbaugh should be ashamed of himself. How can you make a mockery of such an important decision. The people who follow this fool are worse than him! I would like to know how this has effected this race. I bet Hillary knows, that's why she's running around sounding like a war mongering Republican! She'll take a vote anywhere she can get it.

Obama supporters seem to hate McCain and Clinton voters more or less equally. Similarly, Clinton supporters seem to hate McCain and Obama equally and of course McCain supporters equally despise Clinton and Obama. Wouldn't it be lovely if we actually wound up with a three-way tie in the election and no one got a majority? Now that would be chaos! And I'd love to see it!

I'd also love to see a box on the ballot for "None of the above." Between a guy on one side who seems to be perfectly willing to tax us all into poverty to pay for his idiot wars and one of two people on the other side who seem to be perfectly willing to tax us all into poverty to pay for their idiot feel-good socialist money-wasters, we're headed for economic disaster no matter who wins.

Is it true that there is a 10 million dollar bounty on the head of Rush Limbaugh?

hardline conservatives do not want a black man in the White House. That is a fact. Ask a hardline lifetime conservative how many times they voted for a black person in any election. At least, for them having a white "conservative looking" democrat win the presidency is more stomachable than having an African American in the white house.

Republicans are so nasty and dirty.
Sad part is most of them claim to be the "Moral" Christian standard for the world

But as any believer will know…
God is not the author of confusion…. so who then are these so call Moral Christian Republicans really serving.

Thanks MSNBCand CNN: I am so glad that SOMEONE has finally acknowledged the fact that a large number of republicans are temporarily switching parties to vote for Hillary as Rush Limbaugh has asked and strategically planned. OPERATION CHAOS is in full swing in Indiana and NC, forcing the election results to be in Hillary's favor and further weaken Obama's electibility.

Why can't Barack seal the deal? Because he has TWO opponents that are using their voter base against him: the Republicans AND Hillary supporters. I shows me how strong Barack's base is that he can withstand TWO forces going at him. But because of this: he is an underdog and is not getting a fair shake.

This article belongs at the top of your ticker, not hidden down the list. For as religiously right his followers are I'm surprised they don't look at this as a lie aka sin. I guess you can break those rules though if you come up with the right reasoning. Kind of like the pedophile priests the churches cover up for.

At the start, the Reps voted for Obama, thinking he was a weak candidate, but when they saw him surge, they're going: "Ok, I take that back, just kidding on Obama…" So now, they have to vote Clinton in. Hmmm… just a thought.

Even though I couldn't vote for Obama like I wanted to, since NY is a closed primary. I am all in favor of closed primaries. Why on earth would a "private" club allow outsiders to decide who leads it? Doesn't make any sense to me.

This situation makes me so mad. I say that as someone who considers herself conservative. This is a dirty and underhanded way to influence our democratic election process. Rush and anyone who does what he says should be ashamed of themselves. Hillary Clinton will not be easy to beat - otherwise she would already be out of the race. She has enough baggage and told enough lies that no one should still be able to listen to her without gagging, and yet she's still in. So what makes you think she can't do the same with the Republicans? Whatsoever you reap, that shall you also sow Rush.

Operation Chaos: Full Speed Ahead!

Go Hillary!

Cant wait till there plan backfires and you win in November!
Woohoo!!!

Hillary is the only one who can beat McCain. Republicans who think otherwise are fools.

Hillary '08

this just clearly showes what people will do to have power….

i cant stand to see stupid and nasty tacktics like this from the republicans….. i am a republican and im voting for OBAMA b/c i believe he is the better person for the job…. i hate the fact that people would do this… this is not fair

If anyone actually bother reading the exit polls… Republicans actually vote for Obama…

It seems that Rush Limbaugh is not much of a patriot in favor of free and fair elections. Perhaps he'd be happier with a Russian style democracy

I do not uuderstand stand why this could not be considered an offense. When I first heard of this in Ohio I said Rush limpbag is setting up hillary because he wants her to win so that the replicans can smash her in november. you know what this is also why the CNN MSNBC HANNITY and all the REST of them is not putting her trash in the street sort of speak they are all replublicans they want her as the front runner so they can obiterate her this november. the law should not allow the voting and primary elections to be toyed with like this. My question - is what good is having a primary election if the law allows it to be toyed with and the numbers are not accurately true due to this kind of a ploy where is all the integrity

Here is a suggestion for the bloated toad. Why not get together with Ann Coulter, put those smuggled blue pills finally to some use and wallah: you might get a super Republican fit to be a President.

Obama has already won acting like these remaining contest will change much is just stupid!

Well…people should vote for what their heart says

This seems almost calculated to hurt Sen. Clinton. Almost every poll in last three days on McCain v. Democrats - and there have been 11 of them that I have seen - shows Sen. Clinton a stronger opponent than Sen. Obama. And why is the canard about Texas repeated. The exit polls from Texas show that more Republicans voted for Obama than for Clinton. Indeed her margin there would have been at least 18,000 votes greater if no Republicans had voted and she would have earned a couple more delegates. All of this is now on the record. Why do journalist fall victim to the Obama strategy on this. Look also at those votes on Hilton Head Island in the S.C. primary. Do you really think those Republicans suddenly became enamored of an African American Liberal Democrat from Illionois. Get real!

[R]s must be proud. Sewing chaos, etc.; these are the actions of "conservatives"? The problem is that their actions really are consistent with what/who they really are: right-wing reactionaries. That these right-wingers lable themselves "conservative", and the media follows along, does a disservice to the english language.

Yes Mr. Lamebaugh, by all means, let's sew chaos in the [D] primary process, so we can fool the maximum number of fools into voting to keep this [R] mess rolling for another 4-8 years. You must take great pride in contributing to America's slide back into the Dark Ages. You are like Hitler warming his hands over the ashes of Berlin.

Never mind Rush and the Republicans, the Obama supporters on these threads are doing a great job of vilifying anyone who disagrees with them, calling them moron, lowlife, etc. With that kind of backing going for him, Obama is going to have to do a world of healing to bring many of the insulted Clinton backers to his side in the general election. OR are these posters really part of operation Chaos?

North Carolina is more important for Obama!

Indiana is a red-state any way and haven't voted for a Democrate president since 1964! Also - W Virgina and Kentucky are red-states and the republicans will probably play the same game if they can switch their votes!

I just need Obama to close the gap in Indiana and win big in North Carolina today!

Go Obama!

Just goes to show that most Americans do not want "change", they want American Idol.

Ron Paul '08

Of course Rush wants Hillary to stay in the race as long as possible to help John McCain in the general election. All these neo con bozos are for her. Have you heard Pat Buchanan and Bill Bennett speaking out for Hillary? I have over and over and just have to laugh out loud when I do. When have you ever heard any of these people say anything good about Bill or Hillary Clinton? The only reason they do now is they know Hillary is the easier candidate to beat come November. The only people who don't get this are Hillary's die hard supporters and CNN. Hey, listen up, all you are doing by continuing this absurdity is giving the election to McCain. The democratic party is truly pathetic.

And I see Ole Steve from Florida repeats the same line about Ohio. The vote among Republicans in Ohio was exactly the same for both Obama and Clinton - 49% each.

The Supers are paying attention. They're the only ones that can save Democrats from having their nominee chosen by Rush Limbaugh.

This is a prime reason why the Primary Process needs to be updated. When a state allows an open primary… they are open to attack from the opposing Party.

I hope the Democrat Party is paying very close attention to this… so they can curb this kind of activity in the future.

As for Rush… well, if all the Rush Followers voted in the election right now… you would find that they make up only about 20%… which is a substantial number… however, it's the Far Right they represent… and in most cases… that is too extreme for mainstream America…

The rest of us… apparently don't need Rush to make decisions for us.. and don't follow that kind of rhetoric blindly… and those that do…

I'm sorry… but it's time to educate yourselves… and not continue to be the sheep that follow blindly where your told to go…

Go OBAMA!

Rush Limbaugh is an idiot. Why would you encourage new democratic voters to come out and vote? As this race drags on, the longer it drags, the more democrats will register to vote in the election in Nov.

Also, I think Clinton is actually the stronger candidate and a better match against McCain. Obama has a lot of liabilities such as Wright, his "bitter" remarks and so forth. Is Rush so certain that Clinton is a weaker candidate? I think a fair argument can be made for both Obama and Clinton being the stronger candidate so it's a toss-up.

But the real point here is this:

The longer this election drags on, the more democrats will register to vote and the more attention the democratic candidate, whoever it is, will get. It's a number's game, stupid — the democrats will greatly outnumber republicans by the end of the Democratic primary and who do you think the democrats will likely vote for in the presidential election? Probably the democratic candidate!!!!

Rush, I'm a republican and I think you are STUPID…why are you helping the enemy rally more troops????

So funny!

Don't worry, that's why there are superdelegates.

They are more intelligent then the average voter and see through all the games and dirt.

They also know that if Hillary was not in LAST place, she would be in the media spotlight.

So, Hillary's electibility argument is flawed.

Republicans know they dont stand a chance against Obama.

The fact that there are some in this country who want to pervert out system disgust me. Our system, when working at its full capacity, with everyone being involved, and everyone making decisions purely for personal reasons, and by that I mean making your choice because you believe that person will help further what you believe needs to happen - not because you want to help destroy a process, is an amazing thing. No other place on this planet can boast the freedom we have when it comes to elections. so when people like mr limbaugh decide to take it on themselves to rally a group mob mentatilty to destroy a process that is so important to a people run government, it makes me sick. What makes me more sick about it is that people like him are able to be kept on the air - obviously "terrorists" in their own right - while people like imus get kicked off for a backhanded comment. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that Imus had any right to say what he did, nor am I saying it was something that should have been said. I AM saying that between these two people - which one is worse? One who said something demeaning towards someone, or someone who perverts a process of people chosen government that our country helped develop and foster.
mr limbaugh, you should be ashamed.
to everyone who listens to him and takes what he says as truth - you need to look in the mirror and realize what a messed up sate of affairs he offers you.

someone should really investigate rush limbaugh's inflamory rhettoric and the legalities of inciting voter faud. i would like to suggest that se legislation be undertaken in the new administration on the rules of engagement for party switching.there should be a limit on when and how long this can be in affect. this will give some food for thought for those who want to fraudulently vote.

Another item to add to the whine/blame list for Obama:
- it is Rush's fault
- voters are racist
- Hillary must be cheating
- maybe this state should not be allowed like FL and MI
- um, I knew I would lose here anyway
- I will tell my followers we won anyway - they won't know any better
- the sun was in my eyes
- I wasn't in church that day(s)

Maybe Obama can actually take responsibility someday.
Obama - the Victim candidate.
Go Hillary!!

A stop should have been put to this practice when he first began, per the suggestion of Rush Limbaugh. To change your party status to vote for a candidate that you know you will not support in a general election in November in an effort to create chaos is just plain wrong. It amounts to nothning more than a cheating tactic and an exercise to throw and undermind the political process.

Some polls are saying that Clinton is more electable than Obama, nothing could be further from the truth, Clinton is more beatable running against McCain. Senator Clinton is so hated among many democratics as well as republicans she could not buy a republican vote in November. This is totally inappropriate and has no place in an election where people are suppose to vote their conscience.

Can't claim victory with interference from that lame brain idiot Rush.

Remember you get what you tolerate . Rep. are you that afraid of watching the white house get out of your hands that you are led by A hole of the year the brainless "Rush"

I'm suprised CNN even mentions it. Its completely relevant, but it would imply that Clinton doesn't have the support she appears to, which is a very un-CNN type message.

In fairness, Obama actually has cross over appeal so he's picking up legitimate votes from fringe Republicans that offset the Chaos impact.

While Rush and the rest may like to think they are having an impact, I think far too much is being made of this story. I voted this morning in Indiana. There were only two people ahead of me at the table to sign in–they each asked for a Republican ballot. People, for the most part, are going to vote for the person they most want to be President. In my case, that's Hillary Clinton and that's how I cast my vote. To denigrate any of her wins as being the result of some sort of trickery is to denigrate those, like me, who voted for her believing her to be the best candidate.

GO HILLARY!

There was a woman who said she voted in the dem primary today but she is voting McSane in the fall

Shame. This going across party lines is for the birds

We can do this any time we want to as long as we are registered in the party we want to support at the time. Just because we were born democrats doesn't mean we can't change our minds — 'audacity of hope', remember?

Obama is a lying snake. It took him 20 years to disown his anti-American pastor.

Go Hillary! A true American.

That's how pathetic America has become. And you think GDA was offensive?

Steve from Florida,

That is partly right , Hillary got thousands of Rep. votes in Ohio and Texas. The other reason she won there, that very few people are addressing, is the fact that she stirred up a lot of lies about Nafta during these primaries.

This election nonsense of Reps. being allowed to cross over and vote Dem. is just wrong, the only reason that they are switching, is to vote for Clinton, because they really believe McCain can beat her in November, she has sooooooooo much baggage, I agree with them. But how wrong, that a good and honest candidate like Sen. Obama may lose to Clinton because of this mess. I just hope that the Super Delegates have some way of figuring out the full impact of this disgusting issue.

This technique has worked effectively in the past. In the 2002 primaries, Cynthia McKinney (yes…the Anti-Christ herself) as running for re-election for her seat in the House against fellow Democrat Denise Majette and pretty much every Republican and Libertarian in the District registered and then voted for Majette, thus propelling her to victory.

Of course, McKinney cried lied a baby and took the matter to court, but Majette's victory was upheld.

Hillary and Republians' win, American's loss.

Too bad there has been little MSM coverage of this because even George Stephanopoulos went on Hannity's show and was given the questions they asked in the so-called "debate" on ABC.

We also had wall to wall 24/7 coverage of Wright by the MSM for what seemed an eternity.

Also, the ringht wing nuts have been highly praising Hillary everytime they can on Hannity's shows, with Karl Rove and William Kristol piliing on and Scaife helping in Pennsylvania as well as the Wall Street Journal (owned by Rupert Murdoch) article attacking Obama.

Still standing after all this and having McCain and Clinton campaigns coordinating attacks as well as Bill and Chelsea actively campaigning, Obama has withstood a test that ensures he is the one that will win in November.

How about new rules for all sates:

A) You can only vote in the party you are registered with. No more Republicans being able to vote in Democratic primaries or the other way around.

B) You can only vote in a primary after being registered for more than a year. No more switching parties to vote for the weaker of the opposition.

Shameful and yellow-bellied.

This is very true. It's called OPERATION CHAOS! Too bad the Hillary Clinton supporters don't see this. But she has her own sheep to fence-jump when Obama is the nominee. Dirty, shameful politics. This country could learn alot from Japan and Australia's political systems. We just don't seem to get it, and our primary and delegate rules are a mess. Don't forget also that a couple weeks ago, Rush Limbaugh incited a riot in Denver at the Convention. Look at what happened in 1968 Chicago after RFK was shot and the war protesters rioted. Denver could get real ugly in August if this thing goes sour. Shame on you, Rush.

Of course they want Clinton to win. She's toast in the GE. She is the least vetted candidate of all. She' secretive and manipulative and she has a WHOLE LOT of dirt under the rug that the Republican party can't wait to show America.

The REAL Hillary Clinton ,not the one that changes her accent and morphs to her surroundings, but the real one that will turn everyone's stomach.

hmmmmm….all the polls have indicated that Obama is the easier one for McCain to defeat. Rush just wants to prolong the battle hoping to damage the Democratic party. However, there are probably lots of Republicans voting for Obama because he is an easier target to beat in the fall.

Just keep it going.

Let them eat cake is a great motto for the new Dem. Party.

That's corrupt democracy.

Run Hillary - McCain is the next president - just that simple….

Run Obama - McCain will be a senator from AZ - just that simple

limbaugh and his supporters should be jailed for undermining an election process.he's an obese drug addict,anyway.

Freedom of speech has gone too far in the last 30 or 40 years. It's time to shut some of these liberal/conservative rebels up.

Hillary is my candidate of choice and this guys stupid rehotoric about the Republicans wanting to run against her could backfire. I hope people are more intelligent than RL and vote their conscience today no matter who they support.

First off CNN, WHY AREN'T YOU REPORTING ON THIS MORE????? Talk radio has been saturated with this since before Texas, Ohio, and Pennsylvania!!! It's the subject of over a hundred blogs from all over the US and you have chosen to all but ignore it or dismiss it up to this point! This has been huge for a while, and is the dirtiest form of politics.

I for one am whole heartedly for election reform to the effect that if you change parties prior to a primary or caucus, you must vote that party in the general election or your vote is disqualified. That would slam this loophole closed with a quickness. Where's Lou Dobbs when you need him??!

The exit polls in Ohio, Texas and Pennsylvania of Republicans who crossed over in open primaries or changed registration to vote for HRC in Operation Chaos admitted to exit pollsters when asked at a rate of about 10 percent of the voters.

Without them this would have been over now.

There are a lot of real honest Republicans voting for Obama for very real reasons. I should know– I am one of them. The only Republicans voting for Hillary are the ones who intentionally want him to lose.

Where's the mainstream media on this?

Rush Limbaugh and his ilk damage this country.

Republicans are voting for Hillary because she's one of them, afterall she was republican before she switched to being a Democrat so she could marry Bill Clinton. She still shows her republican side all the time acting like street fighter. That is why Rush supports her even more than he supports McCain.

Republicans can have Hillary. Democrats should not allow her to destroy the Democratic party, vote for OBAMA!!

"What is good for the goose. is good for the gander." Rush and your followers want to play this game then just wait your turn is coming.

who cares; w/ the house speaker wanting another stimulus pkg. what is she thinking ?1 more carrot while the ship sinks . tell me who benefits from these little one time food stamp pay-outs. while gas is still sky high , food bills are on the rise etc…….. an already overloaded debt were in the hole this US economy will fail in less than 2yrs. democrat/republican you both have this country on self-destruct. this is not good for this country the way it is headed, the people running the show both sides of the isle have lost their minds. I'AM SURE OF THIS.

McCain has had a free ride so far so he looks pretty viable to some. Just wait till he's up against the democrat nominee. He won't stand a chance.

So Rrepublicans and Independents vote for Obama, and it's because they want change and believe in hope and unity?

And Republicans and Independent vote for Clinton and it's because they want to cause chaos?

Personally, I believe Obama only won over Republicans and Independents early in the process because they felt he would be a weaker candidate than Clinton against McCain. Why was no one saying this three or four months ago? Oh, because they media had and continues to have a crush on Obama.

To Do Good Silence (2:36 pm)

…well said…

Go Hillary!!!!!!

To Navy Vet. The reason the haven't been reporting on this is because CNN, John King and others are to busy trying to put a race divide between the Dems. The Republicans don't need to pay for advertising, CNNdoes it for them. One name for CNN Bigot, Bigot, Bigot.

Wow, Dems have been doing this for YEARS to Republicans and no one seemed to care. Why all the fuss now? (Other than the obviously blatant liberal hypocrisy…

For everyone who thinks this is funny, consider all the people who are spending their time, money, and effort to support their candidate, those who are doing it for free…for Clinton, Obama, or McCain. Say "oh, it's politics" all you want; but it is still spreading hate and lies. If you are a true patriot, you are better than that. If you want to call yourself a Christian, you are better than that, too.

Grow up Republicans! Grow up Limbaugh! Take a few of your mood-altering drugs and chill-out!

Hillary 2008/2012>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know this is happening. My brother who is on the Limbaugh e-mail elert list, was instructed to begin voting for Hillary in the polls now. He signed up to be a Rasmussen pollee to do this. The idea is to make her poll numbers jump to make her argument to the supers that she is gaining.

Since Indiana is so Republican, this means they are really scared of losing the election. Otherwise why would they bother to cross over? Also, Rush is just playing a game with his radio show. He's in it only for the money. He doesn't really believe in anything. Just ask anyone who knew him back in Cape Girardeau.

Exactly what I've been saying from day one: Republicans, Rush, Ann Coulter WANT Hillary to win. Hello Dems, that should be a red flag right there.

VOTE OBAMA

Rush is also a sexist and a racist that said that a woman and a black man didn't stand a chance against McCain.

I don't expect this will get posted but Maggie…you just proved the point about uneducated vote for Hillary

It's Null and Void

From what I saw the "impact" was part of a percentage point. Rush doesn't have enough listeners with enough gumption to actually get up and do anything but shout "ditto" at their radios. Let's not give this washed-up blowhard doper more credit than he deserves.

Obama 08 & 12.

Democrats 08 & 12.

Hillary supporters: How does it feel to know that you're currently in league with the Republicans to sabotage Obama's campaign?

This shows that the McCain campaign is really afraid of Hillary.

Rush only wants to prolong the process, and Hillary only wants to be President (Obama too). None really cares about what is best for the country. In reality, neither state is a swing state, so today's primary have small relevance in the GE. That said, however, the longer this goes on and the more Democrats that register, the more likely it is of an upset

…. and the GOP is so worried about "voter fraud" - they should know: they wrote the playbook!

Weird how Obama all the suddenly should be the underdog in winning the race, think the media is making this stuff up to keep it going….

The Republicans have enough on the Clinton's to win it, even if Bush is VP on McCain's ticket…

Update 2pm - Reports of robocalls that are targeting Obama in Indiana, automated phone calls that are apparently illegal in the state (checking on accuracy). Further controversy: The Secretary of State purged over a million names from the voter rolls. Obama blogs are playing this news up today as if it were more than a routine removal of voters who had died, were duplicated, or who moved.

They should be able to charge him with some type of crime for interfearing with an election.

Rush should be criminaly, federally prosecuted for this stunt. It's fraudulent voting. There MUST BE some type of federal law that he's violating by encouraging this voter fraud!

WHY ISN'T HE BEING CALLED ON THIS BY THE FEDERAL AUTHORITIES?

PEOPLE,PEOPLE……
This is politics…..name of the game…..this is how is works….
Get with the program…….and deal with it……..what do you think that-
Rev.Wright stuff was all about…chaos chaos….chaos…..this guy kenw what he was doing and what kind of political damage he could cause to OBAMA……come on people…..it works on both sides in this Election
Primary Season.
So it happened with the Rush eposide….and also with the Rev.Wright-
thing.!!!!
A PROUD AMERICAN LIVING OVERSEAS AND A PROUD HILLARY-
SUPPORTER.!!!!

Clinton is the easiest target because she LIED repeatedly. You folks who want to crucify Barack because of what his pastor said, are pathetic! It is possible to be a member of a church and disagree with some aspects of it, including a blow hard pastor or a wayward deacon or even trustee. For those of you who haven't lived the horror that is mostly the Black experience in America, I'll say this; educate yourselves about the true history of this country. If not, stick to the issues that affect us all. Nobody's pastor no matter how he speaks or no fellow board member is going to change this fix we're in.
Please vote for change!!!!
Obama '08

IQ level of these comments=25

Terrible….makes me sick.

You can't violate the privacy of the voting booth. Who, or for what reasons, a person votes is entirely up to that person and cannot be subjected to "tests." A lot of people, not just those who follow Rush Limbaugh, don't make their final decision until they are standing in that booth.

Now you know why Howard Dean wanted the race to end early. So America wouldn't see how messed up the Democrat's primary season is.

All of the problems with the DNC are the responsibility of the Chairman. Howard Dean must go!!!

This race would have been over months ago, had it not been for his idiocy.

Democrats have used voting across the aisle for years.

This is still a republic and anyone can vote for whom they choose.

This type of perversion of the democratic process is precisely why I left the Republican party after 31 years. It has totally undermined the credibitility of the party, cheapens the idea of democracy,
and, in my opinion, borders on treason.

As a veteran who proudly served his country when many others managed to avoid service, I must say that I feel that this is an insult to every person who served and defended our country and its way of life. Rush, you have made an absolute mockery of the system you claim to be so supportive of.

That being said, I have not since become a Democrat, however I do now call myself a "Recovering Republican."

I don't know about the rest of you Dems, but the MSM has exhausted the Rev. Wright story to such a degree that I don't think he would be as effective a weapon as the republicans think.

I think the silver lining here as that this saturation media is making many of us desensitized to this issue. I know I'm sick to death of it already!!

VOTE ISSUES 08

I don't see what people say is so "unAmerican" about a Republican voting in a Democratic primary, if the state party's rules specifically allow it.

The Republican primary is over. McCain won. The only choice voters now have is who they want on the other ticket. It's possible that some will vote based on whom they think is more beatable. I also believe that many will vote based on whom they feel would be the best alternative (or at least the less bad alternative) if McCain loses. Clearly Republicans are as split on that as Democrats, since the crossover voters are splitting down the middle in most states.

If the Republican race had been over when my state voted, I would have voted in the Democratic primary, not because I give a hill of beans what Rush says, but because I find one of the Democrats to be a much worse choice than the other.

Besides, as I said before, the rules specifically allow it. Keep in mind, these same rules are the ones that are repeatedly being used to defend not counting the votes in FL and MI, two states who make up 10% of the US population. If THOSE RULES make that outcome fair, thhen THESE RULES make this just as fair.

Dear Erik from Dallas,
What exactly do you think is the driver in all this? OpCHAOS is in DIRECT, yes DIRECT, response to all the Dems and so-called independents (sorry, if you only vote for Dems and REFUSE to vote for a Conservative now and then, you technically cannot be called an independent) who crossed over in Republican open primaries gave us McCain as the Republican nominee.

Nothing illegal has been done in OpCHAOS. Changing your political party is not illegal. Voting for the candidate of your choice is not illegal. In fact, my grandfather said the only time he ever voted Republican was to keep McGovern out of the White House.

OpCHAOS is in no way "tampering" with the election process. The national parties control the specifics (ie rules) on how they want to select their nominee. The primary process is arbitrary, at best, and is not governed by the Constitution.

Democrats are simply the Gang that Can't Shoot Straight. They were handed this election on a silver platter, but still managed to open the door up into their noses. If these clowns can't even manage the process to SELECT their candidate, how in the hell do you think they can defend against Global Jihad?

What a disgrace. But very easy to fix.

Once you register to vote for a primary or caucus….you will stay registered for the same party in the GE…..no switchbacks.

How sad that this has been going on. I'm from Canada and heard about this well before the Texas and Ohio primaries.

I'm sure the media was well aware also…..just ratings prove more important than true democracy.

Hopefully the SD's are paying attention. I believe that's why they were elected…..to ensure democracy works.
