(CNN) – How big of an impact did Rush Limbaugh’s ‘Operation Chaos’ have in Indiana? Did GOP voters really cross over to create havoc in the Democratic primary by voting for Hillary Clinton, as he’d asked his listeners to do?
Roughly one in ten of the state’s Democratic primary voters were Republican - and that group did vote for Hillary Clinton, 53 to 47 percent over Barack Obama. But hold on: registered Democrats, who made up two-thirds of Tuesday’s primary voters, gave roughly the same edge to Clinton, 53 to 45 percent. Only Independents - who made up about a quarter of the electorate - voted for Obama, 53 to 47 percent.
For whatever reason, self-identified conservative voters did overwhelmingly support Clinton – two out of three cast their votes for the New York senator.

NO
becasue they have the common sense to vote for hillary.
Yes. I beleive that Operation Chaos is the key to Clinton's success in Texas, PA and Indiana.
Why is it when Obama gets Republican votes it's because he's so wonderful but when Senator Clinton does it's because of Rush Limbaugh? How does one determine that votes for Hillary are just because Rush told them to vote but votes for Obam are because he's so wonderful. Just curious
Why has CNN not projected Hillary as winner in Indiana with 42% of precincts reporting and a solid 12 point lead since the beginning? Why is Indiana still too close to call? All while CNN projects Obama the winner in NC with ZERO percent reporting. I have one guess: more face time for a flattering pic of Obama and Obama's name in lights, then you'll past up something unflattering of Hilary and say she's "barely hanging in there after a tight race – and she probably only won because of a practical joke by Rush Limbaugh."
i have never been so disappointed in the media as i am by CNN's coverage of the democratic primary. This used to be my go-to source for non-biased reporting... no more.
Because she is most aligned with the republican agenda.
Judy –
What is "becasue". You are obviously one of the uneducated Clinton voters.
You're telling us that another media-created distraction was meaningless? Really? Wow, go figure.
LONG ago the GOP decided to get Hillary knocked out of the race. Operation Chaos is to continue the in-fighting. Seems to be working just fine!!!!
McCain '08!!!
And Hillary will count every one as her "popular" vote, even though she's the Republican's dream candidate. Some middle of the road swing Rep/Dem women and older voters are Hillary only, then McCain. The growing anti-Bush, anti-war, anti-corporate handouts, will all fall in line with Obama, given the chance, because he respresents those values and that voice with authenticity.
Typical fear of losing office to a Democrat to try to elect the weakest canidate. The one with the most baggage, one who has discounted the African Americans.
Go Obama / Edwards 08
Obama will not survive a general election as the nominee... Not because of his race, but because he is all over the map when it comes to the issues.
That's the part so many of his supporters fail to understand .
John King....just said on CNN that they are conservative....stating that they couldn't call Indiana because it was too early in the race...(with 44% of the votes in), yet they called North Carolina in favor of Barack Obama, when there was 0% of the votes in. When will this one sided media stop favoring just Senator Obama?
What the heck happend? I went to vote for Rev Wright and he wasn't on the ballot. Did he drop out? I can't believe this!
Hillbilly lost because her message does not resonate, period. She is losing in states won, pledged delegates, popular vote, and soon to be superdelegates. What else is there left? Go home Clinton!!
Go Obama!!!
Hillary took a hardy stomping in NC. Some say it was a smack down, others call it a spanking. I predict the same in Indy. If not a whooping, perhaps he can just squeek by.
I THINK HILLARY SHOULD GRACEFULLY STEP DOWN FROM THIS RACE AND LET OBAMA LEAD THE WAY AND WIN THE NOMINATION IN NOVEMBER. SHE IS REALLY GIVING ALL THE NEGATIVITY TO GOP AND THROWING NEGATIVITY ABOUT SENATOR OBAMA TO THE CITIZENS AND MISLEADING THEM. SHE MUST STEP DOWN.
Stop whining Dems. I know several Democrats who registered as Republicans just to vote for McCain. Democrat operatives have been doing (and advocating) this strategy for years!
This faux outrage is getting old. Maybe if people were outraged about the seediness of politics all of the time, instead of just when their horse gets hurt, we could clean things up. Until then, this is the bed America has made for itself.
"For whatever reason, self-identified conservative voters did overwhelmingly support Clinton." Well, the reason is clear and you touched on it: Clinton is a hard-right corporatist that panders to the lowest common denominator, so the right-wingers take her as not only a second choice to McBush, but they'd rather face off against her in the GE. Looks like Limbaugh's "Operation Chaos" paid off...too bad it won't matter in the end when Obama is the nominee.
Limbaugh should be locked up for treason.
I think it worked for those people who can not think for themselves.
Obama 08
We know that the republicans are the ones voting for Hillary Clinton. I heard one on radio last night who stated clearly that she is a Republican but was going to vote in the primaries for Clinton.
Why are they so afraid of Obama being the nominee. He is unstoppable. Though slightly hurt by Rev Wright, he is still winnig by a huge margin in NC.
Obama 08'
you give Rush Limbaugh too much credit.
That is true. The only reason why Hillary is still in it (not winning, and will not win, though) is because the republicans want Hillary to get the nom because they know they can beat her. But she won't get it and the republicans are hoping to destroy our party. Hillary is only helping the republicans by furthering this process knowing there is no way that she could possibly win.
I totally agree with karen from va – Clinton took PA, Texas & now Indiana due to operation chaos. The reason Operation Chaos even exists is that the Republicans want Hillary to run so badly because they feel they can beat her easily. Obama scares them. They know they will lose.
Wow – even with 49% of the precints reporting in Indiana, CNN will still not call the race for Clinton, while 1% of the precints reporting in North Carolina has given Obama a victory. Will CNN even try to veil its blatant bias toward Obama? It's a little sick – and I have no vested interest in these races, as I'm a Republican.
Jay....are you saying that North Carolina's black democratic voters make up 60% of the population. All voters are Americans...you sound a little bitter and racist...I'm just saying.
76% of white voters voted for Hilary in Indiana. I'm just sayin'
Jay:
What does it say about Clinton that she can't attract the black vote? The answer: She has a problem now and it will come back to haunt her if she is the nominee. THE TRUTH: She won't be able to beat McCain without the black vote.
If the state is more white than black, what do you say to the whites who voted for Obama? YOU DID A BAD THING. Get real.
It is funny how Hillary supporters are making the same argument of blacks voting overwhelmingly for Obama that the repubs make when blacks vote 90 to 10 for the democrat. Hillary does not like this, but without the black vote a democrat can never get elected in this country.
Racist??? Good Lord...what do you call Rush???
Go Obama 08
BREAKING NEWS!!!
The UN “Obliteration” Unit has rapidly been summoned to investigate a possible “Obliteration” of one Mrs. “Hot PantSuit” in NC. According to reports, …sorry for the break in transmission, but Wolfe, we have to evacuate our base here in Indiana; Reports of a similar disaster heading…wait a minute…is that Mrs. “Hot PantSuit”…darn right. Wolfe, at the pace she is running, this possible “Obliteration” heading our way is far from a rumor…Wooooolllllllffffeeeeee…
Hey Jay
Sen. Obama also won 33% of the white voters in NC. He has also won some 18 or so predominately white states like Maine , Wyoming, and Iowa. Their seems to be a lot of non-racist white voters in this great country. The media paints this as an issue of race , but it is equally about gender.
Go Obama / Edwards 08
Mr. Schneider- I can't believe you even mentioned this. Rush will be talking about this post all day tomorrow.
Now jus let the super delegates vote and after Obama get the Nomination then give Hillary Mich and Flor. Lol.
Jay:
...you're just sayin' you're a racist? Just because someone is black and votes for another black person doesn't make them racist. Would you call white Hillary supporters racist? I think one could just as easily frame it that way.
Honestly, before you drop that race baiting nonsense, just think twice in the future.
Listen all. We have a mix raced man who happens to be black so understand why the AA community feel the need to vote for him because he is qualified. Common people we had white men all along so allow the AA to be excited about Obama. And no it is not a racial thing but a thing of PRIDE and the good WHITE people of this country all know this.
Oh! by the way who said Obama is BLACK? Is he black? Is he?
of course ,hillary appreciates any help she can get,
as long as its negative to obama,the dnc and america
thats hillary,anti-everything positive
I do not believe any self-respecting voter would do that–this is a "mirage" of the radical right! there is no such thing as operation chaos.
The Party is split right down the middle
Affluent, Black, College educated vote for Obama
Blue Collar, Women, Hispanics, Asians, vote for Hillary
IF YOU COUNT FL and MI giving Obama 40% of MI for the sake of argument
Clinton 1817 Delegates
Obama 1896 Delegates
The party is split.....A JOINT TICKET WILL HEAL THE PARTY!!!
But there are still more contests to go....the voters Obama cannot pick up will vote for McCain....and McCain will win the General, and Obama will be saying "coulda, shoulda, woulda"
Republicans impeached Predident Clinton, do you think they're voting for her because they like her views? You must not be very smart mama coo.
Well I hope that if Florida and Michigan are not counted in the Democratic Party Election....that all the Democratic voters within those states vote Republican. I think the Democratic party is cutting their nose off to spite their face.
thank you north carolina
Hillary is the Rep's dream candidate. You know, I don't like McCain or his party's politics, but he's a much straighter shooter. Hillary both sickens me with her sense of entitlement, use of racism and fear, and willingness to swing the way the polls tell her at the moment. She's a loose cannon and something to be feared, herself.
Sen. Obama plays by the rules, something Hillary cannot do. Any candidate that could completely recover after the past 3 weeks Obama has had to, is without a doubt worth the effort. Dem Superdelegates need to come out NOW for Sen.Obama before Billary destroys the party.
Mr. Schneider- I can't believe you even mentioned this. Rush will be talking about this post all day tomorrow.
Is that because Republicans think that McCain can beat Clinton in the general election? Rush could not possibly want Hill and Bill back in the White House.....
Noooo,rather they know the can count on Hillary to continue to play attack politics and further divide the party.....We already have non-thinkers that are saying if Hill doesn't win (which she won't) they would vote for Mccain.....the more she attacks the Dems nominee BARAK OBAMA (is his name) the more she gives the GOP to use against him in the fall.
Hey!!! The GOP can count, THEY know Hill doesn't have a chance of getting the Dems nomination.....NOT A FREAKING CHANCE!!!!!!!
Karen from va you nailed it! True Obama gets a lot of converts from the republican camp but they do that with good intentions. Most of those voting for Clinton are either trying to put Democrats in a deadlock or are are dumb enough to actually believe anything Hillary says. It would have been way easy for Obaa to support the tax holiday but no he wants to do this thing right and deliver the goods for the good citizents of America.
Republicans for Obama = isn't he great? Republicans for Clinton = spoilers. Media is biased.
The media has made this a black and white issue Hillary Clinton lost African American votes and Barack Obama won them by his plan, his integrity, and how he has run his campaign!
By the way, if roughly 13% of the US population is African American even if everyone was of voting age and voted for Obama, he would not be winning. NC is not 100% African American, and even in PA and OH, Hillary won by only 9.2 and around 10%. Somebody OTHER than African Americans are voting for Obama!
Members of one party interfering in the primary process of the other is just another sign of the deepening divisions and frowing lack of respect for one another which is destroying our ability to function as a modern democracy.
How will the journalists spin this big win in NC tonight? Actually, I believe they are stunned that they will now have to rewrite the script. These guys are so funny because this is entirely new territory for the media. The youth of this nation have supported the candidate of their choice and this may be the year for doing national politics differently.
Will Americans ever grow up? Why is color such an issue? Isn't it more important to focus on the needs of this country?
So...what have you called Blacks in the past who have overwhelmingly supported White Democratic candidates? Oh, but the white blue collar workers are just worried about the economy and experience? Okay.
Blacks represent 12% of the population and there hasn't been 100% Black voter turnout, so OBVIOUSLY whites are voting for Obama as well. How about you get real and come to turns with your hypocrisy.
If Obama wins the nomination, I'm voting for McCain. And I'm a swing state voter... Democrats are going to screw this one up... and they deserve it at this point. That man is as qualified as I am to run for president. Whatever.
Yes, just look at the exit polls! 14% think both Clinton and Obama are untrustworthy and 53+ % of then voted for Clinton. 11% were republicans and 53+% of them voted for Clinton.
Suppers put us out of our misery! Come out for Obama NOW!
How can you say that Obama had won as soon as the polls closed in North Carolina that you all said that he won. But you cannot say that for Hilary Clinton in Indiana, as soon as the polls closed.
Look at who people will vote for if first Clinton is the Nominee, of her own supporters, you will find that 12% of people of the total number surveyed are going to vote for McCain regardless of if the person they voted for (Clinton) is the nominee or not. Obama had a similar group, but that number was 3.7%. So if Clinton wins by anything less than 8.3%, Obama would have been the winner had it just been people voting for the canidate they want in November. The number for Clinton was 6% in PN, and now 12% in both Indiana and North Carolina. Why doesn't anyone talk about that number.
Love how CNN deleated my post for speaking the truth. There was nothing bad about what i said.
Mama coo – in answer to your question: "How does one determine that votes for Hillary are just because Rush told them to vote but votes for Obam are because he's so wonderful," I have a counter-question for you: How many of those Republicans voting for Hillary (slightly over 5% of the total vote in this primary) do you suppose plan to vote for her in the spring over McCain? It's true she certainly is a better candidate than McCain. But all the things that make her a better candidate are as true or more true for Barack, who shares almost identical politics with Hillary. If one is choosing between Clinton and Obama, inevitably it comes down to intangibles, and if one is a Republican walking away from the Republican party, Obama's intangibles are better.
Besides, have you HEARD of any Republican boasting of voting for Obama because he seems a weaker Democratic candidate? I haven't.
Who cares! The democratic party is done. You have Obama who is hardcore extreme left liberal pushing socialist ideas, Hilary in the middle and McCain just left of the right conservatives. Obama represends the "McDonalds can I have it now" generation and our black brothers and sisters, while McCain has the rest once Hilary is defeated.
If a large number of conservatives cross lines because they want Hillary to be the candidate, can you imagine how they'd turn out against her in November?
Conservatives won't support McCain – they will vote against Hillary.
What a bunch of idiots!
As a white older male, with an education who follows politics closely, it is simply a fact that for the last 46 years, that without a 90% African American vote for the Democrats, not a single Democratic president would have been elected!
It is absolutely outrageous that anyone would accuse African Americans of being racist for overwhelmingly votig for a candidate (50% white) who is so emunently qualified, that they can actually relate to!
Look in the mirror if you twits want to see a racist...the reflection will be white!
It will be TOO funny if the republicans have to bow to Hillary Clinton as
President because the Operation Chaos hoax backfired on them.
Check CNN's exit poll data. Only 86% of the people who voted for Clinton in Indiana say they would vote for her in November! In comparison, 95% of Obama voters report that they will vote for him in November. So yes, I'd say "operation chaos" has made a pretty substantial shift. The impact of operation chaos shown in the exit polls is more than twice the margin of victory in those same polls, so it's quite likely the single reason for flipping the result.
OBAMA / EDWARDS '08'
Of course it worked in those states, but it worked too late. Obama is already to far ahead for Hilliary to catch him. Limbaugh is good, (like any low down sneaky Republican.) And Hilliary supporters are to BITTER to acknowlege that she is losing fair and square. She ran her race and lost. It is time for the Democrates to unite behind out candidate, instead of allowing the dirty tricks of the Republicans tear the part apart so they can win the election. In the end that is their agenda. And it will be the people who can't see past Obama's race and recognize that he and Clinton are nearly identical on the issues, that hand the presidency over to McCain.
That would explain a lot. And it also shows how powerful conservative talk radio is.
Obama 08
How electable is a candidate when a good percentage of their votes come from the opposing team?
Just sayin'
What is the percentage gap in Texas, Ohio, and Penn after you take away republicans who voted for Hillary or Barack? I want to see those numbers.
Conservatives voted 2/3 for Clinton "for whatever reason"?? Y'think maybe it's because she's a closet conservative?
Just wait until they drop her.
Rush Limbaugh's strategy worked. His plan to create chaos in the Democratic party is working brilliantly. I personally know several right-wing, conservative voters in Indiana who voted for Clinton because of Limbaugh's words. Hillary, just drop out so our party can unite!
Could the press please dig into this more? While "operation chaos" may not be illegal and take away from any potential Clinton victory in Indiana, it certainly should take away from the momentum she would claim from such a victory. The public deserves to know if, and if so the extent to which, Clinton's republican voters were switching over to confound the democratic primary outcome rather than to make a principled decision.
Black racist here is something to think about.
demographics of the usa
12% Black
75.5% White non hispanic
83% White when you include the hispanics that are white and the ones that claim themselves white
good luck obama lol.
President John McCain 08!!!!!
McCain will win
ciao
Chaos isn't working, its just a cover to explain all the republicans voting for Obama.
Shame on you republicans playing games, how unamerican! Hillary is just as unamerican, CNN announced today that she was encouraged with the republicans voting for her. How shamless is she to accept their votes knowing they're only doing it because they think she is the weaker candidate to run against. She cares less about the voices of the people. She says "let's hear what the voters ahve to say", she is full of sh– . She doesn't care about the people, she just wants votes, even those that are not really votes.
Oh yea its sad that alot of you Non-African Americans believe we are voting for Obama cause he is Black. Thats saying Women vote for Hillary cause she is a woman. Elderly vote for McCain cause he is old. Keep in mind that African Americans have voted for White men forever. I was for Hillary cause i did not Know who the Hell Obama was. After he started winning and the True Hillary came out keep in mind i was going for Hill cause she was a Clinton i thought it would be like Bill. She is no Bill so i turned my money and Support to Obama. Face it all you who slander and attack Obama are just racists and really believe that African Americans are weak. If Condi Rice or Colin Powel was running against John Edwards i would vote for John because they dont represent my views or my Party. AND I AM AFRICAN AMERICAN.
exit polls: 13% of clinton supporters in indiana would vote against clinton and for McCain if Cliton wins the nomination.
NO,
AND IT WON'T BECAUSE WHEN WOMEN HAVE TO CHOSE BETWEEN MCCAIN AND BARACK OBAMA
WITH MCCAIN THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE ROE.V.WADE BEING OVER TURNED THE CHOICE WILL BE CLEAR.
OBAMA 08!!!
Clinton supporters should be thanking Limbaugh. If that idiot had not pushed his OC, then this race would have been over the day of the Texas/Penn primary. Fortunately for the superdelegates, they can see past the effects of Operation Chaos, and will start throwing thier support to Obama after tonights delegate landslide for Obama.
RON GET OVER YOURSELF!!! REALLY!!! LOL
JB nailed it!
And these are the first ones that will scream about patriotism? And yet they have no qualms (even boast about muddying an election)? It seems maybe the reason they think patriotism is so important is because of what they, themselves, are lacking. Including Rush Limbaugh and the other talk show hosts who encouraged this type of behavior. I would hope that some eyebrows would go up if any of them ever dare question anybodies patriotism or how American or un-American somebody else is. I would put them on the bottom of the list.
So basically, she is getting votes from people who won't vote for her in the general any ole way. So much for electability.
Obama O-8!!
All I know is that I know a bunch of Rush chaos voters in Texas. No way to know that big picture, but there were a lot in the Dallas area.
Hold on! in PA you couldn't vote in the democratic primary unless you were a registered democrat, and she won by double digets. This conspiracy theory is a just a way for CNN to take away from the accomplishments of Hillary.
People who vote for Obama are either 1) african americans and white people like Tom Hanks who are voting for 'symbolic' reasons (i.e. to get a black man in the white house to prove to the world and themselves that America isn't racist), 2) students who have not yet had to deal with the real world and are swept away with the "rock star" appeal of obama, but have no idea what the difference is between a vote for substance and a vote for rhetoric; and 3) white elitists who are not affected by the economy right now.
The people who are voting for Hillary are those who are fighting for real change, those who are being hit by this economic crisis. What change is a student fighting for? Honestly. What real change is a rich white man fighting for? What change is a person who votes on race alone fight for? The real change that America needs is being felt by those in rural areas. Listen to them.
Marie,
The problem is that with your strategy you are hurting yourself, not the "democrats." We are the people and what they do affects us. So think about what your children, family, and neighbors deserve before choosing revenge tactics because that will only hurt everyday American people.
We need to see what actually happens when Florida and Michigan enter the equation. If they were punished for holding their primaries too early, hold them now. They are still within their time limits to do so. Even Newt Gingrich has said that both states have elections in August. There is NO REASON that these two states cannot hold new primaries in August. It won't cost the taxpayers a thing and they will NOT have voted "early". So, they should just hold their primaries and let the voices of the people be heard and the votes of the voters be counted. If this happens, there is no one that can say the outcome was not the will of the voters! The DNC, Howard Dean, and the Rules Committee should be ashamed of how they have run this election! INEPTITUDE, in my opinion!
I have to say what everyone else is thinking....INDIANA – ARE YOU RETARDED? Do you not watch the news....or read newspapers?? Do you realize that weeks ago she was making up a story about being attacked by snipers....and that she has taken every position?? and that her most recent gaff would cost us millions and thousands of jobs – and its nothing more than pandering for votes....come to think of it...why am I writing this...I'm 100% sure Clinton supporters are illiterate
Senator Obama is not just geting the African American vote, which is only
about 12%. He is also getting the white and latino vote. African Americans have voted overwhelmingly for white candidates in the past.
It is time to stop this nonsense about race being a factor. People of
all races and common sense want CHANGE from the Bush, Clinton
monopoly on this country.
Its funny how some Hillary supporters always like to cry about how the they have not projected her the winner in Indiana, but she herself will never admit when she has lost a state and will count it not important to the general election.
If Hillary wins the nomination we will loose the Presidency because we are playing the old get all the big states and forget the small states, when thats how the Republicans always win. Never forget the little states, because they are the pulse of America. Senator Obama and the Republican Party understand that no matter if the GOP is for BIG business.
Hillary if you are the nominee and you continue to discount some states, I will surely write-in Colin Powell for Commander in Chief
Why not trying to ask blacks about why they are voting for Obama? Surely you will find that many more are not happy with Hillary's negative campaigning! Her wishy-washy atittude about Barack having or not having experience to lead the country (but he's good enough to be her V.P.) Her "I wouldn't be a member of HIS church" although she and Bill turned to Rev Wright in their hour of need during his impeachment. Her statement of whether or not Barack is or is not a Muslim ( or at least "as far as she knows").
If Barack does get the nomination and McCain wins, I am sure I will be able to point out the white racism that would be the cause of it.
Polls say that America is ready for a black President, but most of the mouths out of both the Hillary and McCain camps speak volumes to contradict that!!!
Now tell me who's racist????
Even though I hate the pill-popping Rush......I can see that his strategy somewhat worked. Funny....you can see that the Republican's plan all along was to vote for Hillary to prolong this fight.......HINT HINT.....Ann Coulter and Rush saying they would vote for Clinton instead of McCain......
The deaf and dumb leading the blind.......so sad......
We keep seeing polling on how many of Hillary's supporters will vote for Obama, but we need polling on how many of Hillary's supporters will vote for Hillary.
When Rush Limbaugh is your most influential surrogate, you're in trouble.
No Rush didn't have anything to do with it. Keep in mind the Republicans are hoping to get the white voters that Obama can't win. The sad thing is McCain might just be the next President because the TV news shows bought in a race issue. It didn't start without the News shows, Fox, CNN and MSNBC started it. But they started it to try to start of a fight, now they can watch a Republican be the President for the next 4 years
I doubt if Rush Limbaugh can take credit for Obama's votes. Many Republicans (along with fellow Democrats) have had ENOUGH of the Republican party and their fleecing of American citizens pockets. The Republican rule under George Bush have their hand in the highest oil prices in history, highest deficiet, raising food prices, worst party to so-call take care of the American dream of home ownership by allowing bankers to dry up those dreams with multitude of foreclosures and adjustable morgages, lowering of the American dollar, and the costliest war in terms of lives and money. American voters are simply saying we've had enough and something's must change and that change starts with Obama.
I think you Republican need to look at the number for the GOP that are coming out of the Primaries.
The Democratic are coming out in droves!!!
If you really think this will not be a united party come November...you have a really been fooled!!!
The Democrats are going to wipe the floor with McCain!!!
You really think the American people want anything that look like a BUSH for the next four years.....PLEASE!!!!
RUSH is GARBAGE!!!!!!!! OBAMA '08
of course ditto heads have helped Clinton's cause...(which is all they have done, btw).
It's only a coincidence, and quite the coincidence, that Republican voters would skew similar to Democratic voters...usually these groups do vote differently.
Obama had been getting a sizeable majority of Republican crossover votes, and the result of the ditto head campaign has been to effectively cancel out that Obama advantage.
Clinton is running an entirely pro-feminist campaign that has to be laughing long into the night about these idiot men that are propelling her forward. If she ends up winning, you'll live long enough to regret it.
As a father who would like to see a country where father's get equal time and equal opportunities with their children -completely anathema to Clinton's non-gender equity style of feminism (i.e. a she is simply a proponent of reverse sexism and nothing more)....I find it ridiculous to play these types of games.
The idea here is that this inflates Rushes ego when idiots do what he says, and if, as he hopes, Clinton wins, then his ratings go up the next 4 to 8 years. Don't believe for a moment that he wants McCain to Win.
Ann Coulter and Rush made it quite clear that they truly want Clinton to win, rather than McCain...that supposedly 1 or 2 terms of a democratic president is better than generations of shift they foresee happening after a successive Bush-McCain win.
They have stated these things many times.....but the ditto heads..are not very bright.
Marie – You state that John McCain is more qualified to be President than Barack Obama? Share with us what you believe those qualifications are.
Eagerly awaiting your response!!
These people who cross over to vote for Clinton are only doing so because there is built-in animosity and vitriol against her for a large portion of the population. I'm convinced no Repubican has a chance of winning this year, and I believe Rush knows that too. He and the other repugnant haters like him simply want Clinton to win because it will make their jobs that much easier for the next four years. It's much easier to spew hate-filled lies on television and in books to legions of ignorant "ditto-heads" with a Clinton in the White House than it will be with a consensus builder like Obama.
Anyone who crosses party lines to vote a certain way because a disgruntled drug-addict radio host tells them to do so should lose their voting priviliges.
what would you call the Primary victories in the northern states in the Midwest???? The majority of voters there are white, and he won many of those states handily. He will also win a good percentage of the white vote in November.
We will have a black president..may as well get used to the idea.
Rush is GARBAGE!!!!!!!! OBAMA '08
