btw, did you see Chris Matthews dancing with Ellen? He looked ridiculous. So did Obama earlier.
Call me old fashioned but I do not approve of cross voting for the purpose of screwing up the other guys story. It reeks of the ‘win-at-any-cost’ politics that is the hallmark of the Democrats. To me elections are like sporting events, and some minimum commitment to following the spirit of the rules, as well as the letter, is a part of good politics just like it’s a part of good sportsmanship.
I’ve been extremely disapointed that Rush has taken this tact, and I hope he reconsiders and stops it. It can only make people more cynical, disenchanted and angry when they lose.
I would like to see the GOP reform the primary rules in a way that prevents cross voting and independents from helping decide our nominees in the future.
Nope. Shrillary needs to win 60% of all the remaining primaries to pass Obamination.
She won’t get it. Right now, support Obama. Her Royal Jerkness will continue with her strategy to take over the nomination via coup anyway. It doesn’t matter what the vote is, what the delegate count is, what super politician delegates say they are pledged, she will continue to try to outmuscle him.
The Clinton Mob Machine will always come up with new arguments why delegates should vote/change for Shrillary. It’s a moving target and a movable feast.
Support Bambi!
More popcorn.
Remember the goal is to keep the two of them fighting for as long as possible while we get our clothespins ready to vote for President John McCain.
About time for the Rush bots to chime in...
Anyone who still thinks that Hillary is easier to beat than Obama at this point has the IQ of room temperature in Centigrade.
My feeling is that any conservative/Republican trying to meddle in the Dem primary may find himself running smack into the law of unintended consequences.
If I vote for Hillary in order to prolong the contest, and Hillary ends up winning the presidency ... or I vote for Obama to get rid of Hillary, thinking Obama is going to be a pushover in the Fall, and he ends up bringing eight years of articulate, persuasive socialist government to the U.S. ....
Well, I’d sure hate to know I was partly to blame.
He’s going to continue the tactic. He will be selling “operation chaos” t shirts.
Is that you Rush?
Posting nazis are SO tiresome.
I think the picking your opponents thing is a big waste of effort. Things would be much better if we’d put together a list of GOP candidates that didn’t suck, instead we have Mr anti-First Amendment.
I don’t believe Rush saved Hillary. If thousands of voters crossed over and voted for her, and if that made a difference, it was their own decision.
I don’t think there is any chance of Hillary being nominated. Either way, pretty much the only thing going for McCain right now is that the dem race is still undecided.
Messing with the dem primaries is a good idea. Maybe rules will get passed so they stop picking our candidates in the early primaries.
We should be thankful Hillary that was still in the race because otherwise no one would have questioned the messiah figure.
I don’t want the crappiest dem candidate possible because there is a very good chance they will get elected. If you’re going to cross over and vote my suggestion is that your vote for the one you think is the better of the two.
Like McCain has those kind of stones.
Why not? It worked once...
McCain just blew out a big lead now in the general poll via Rasmussen.
Try to keep up.
Do you also disapprove of our military infiltrating the enemies defenses, pretending to be on their side in order to kill them?
I agree. As it stands now, it would be nice if Hillary won PA, but not by a total landslide. Then Obama needs to come back and put the smackdown back on her in the remaining states.
No matter what Hill & BHO will pretty much split the State delegates 50-50. Whoever wins will get just a couple more.
I'm a R so I don't count. The D's and I's in the family will vote for Hill just to try and keep it pretty much even.
Right now BHO still looks to roll into the convention with more pledged delegates than Hill.
If Hillary wins it will not be because of RL but because voters are idiots.
