Lorraine X On Election Eve (Rush's Favorite Bete Noire Plays The Race Card Alert)
Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | 11/3/2008 | Rush Limbaugh

Posted on 11/03/2008 3:21:12 PM PST by goldstategop

RUSH: Here's Lorraine in San Diego. Hi, Lorraine, nice to have you on the program. Welcome.

CALLER: Hi. Well, Rush, on this election eve, I'm going to put on my commentator hat today and provide you with my Election Day prediction, but first, Rush, I'd like to remind and refresh the memory of conservatives listening today that Rush Limbaugh had warned you people that John McCain was a setup and was the hand picked candidate that Democrats like me wanted to run against, so many Democrats crossed over to vote for McCain during the primary to assure that he received the nomination, and then, of course, Operation Chaos happened after that, just wanted to remind you people. So here's my prediction, Rush.

RUSH: Wait a minute, Lorraine.

CALLER: Okay.

RUSH: Hang on a minute. I'm still trying to digest the central point here of what -- you're blaming me for something here?

CALLER: Oh, no, I'm saying that you're the one who tried to alert everyone. You warned conservatives in the Republican Party that John McCain was not the genuine candidate but he was the candidate that was picked by Democrats.

RUSH: And the Democrats would not vote for him in the general --

CALLER: Absolutely.

RUSH: -- after they crossed over. Right. Well, I'm not prepared to concede your point, Lorraine, that it's a landslide in the making tomorrow.

CALLER: Well, I don't know if it's going to be a landslide, but here's my prediction. Obama wins it tomorrow because John McCain would have to run the board in order to win, including, Rush, get this, he needs about a hundred percent of the undecided. He's got to take Colorado, Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Missouri, and Pennsylvania. And since Obama is currently holding all the states run by -- I mean this is amazing -- Obama need only one of those states, Rush, in order to be president. But there is a wild card left.

RUSH: Lorraine, what is your source material that gave you this knowledge? Where does it come from that McCain has to run the table?

CALLER: Well, I've looked at a lot of the analyzing from the Associated Press, also MSNBC --

RUSH: I see, I see, so you are using the polls as reported by the Drive-By Media?

CALLER: I've seen some of Fox stuff too but he does have a wild card, Rush.

RUSH: You know, I mean Fox is one element here. So you're buying into the notion here that McCain has to run the table 'cause Obama is ahead in every battleground state?

CALLER: Uh-huh.

RUSH: And nobody can run the table in all these battleground states, so it's over?

CALLER: Yes, but there is a wild card. Let me tell you what that is. The wild card that McCain has here, sadly, is racism. Now, that's all McCain has left. This is what I mean by that. McCain has to hope that a large enough portion of voters, of American people, are going to vote against Barack Obama simply because he's black.

RUSH: Well, no, see, Lorraine X, here's the thing, this is the thing about this. You just got through citing the polls, you credit them with validity in saying McCain has to run the table, and then, "Oh, we got a caveat, if there's a lot of racism," you're talking about the Bradley Effect. You are thus saying the polls really can't be trusted even though you trust them that McCain's gotta run the table. That's why I say this is not over.

Lorraine X, Rush's favorite bete noire called in today to predict Obama would win the election. But she had a caveat. McCain has a wild card. American racism. (laughing) If Obama loses, we all know why and its never his fault! (laughing)

Lorraine always makes me laugh. She’s like a poorly executed patch-work quilt of “news” and opinions.

Well, yeah -- tax yo' white ass if you make over a quarter of a mill, or certainly 120 yards, or make that 95 yards, and anyone who makes over about 70, certainly 45 grand or so, needs to be taxed.

Heard that one put together on talk radio yesterday -- think it was Dennis Prager, but I can't remember who got the sound bites from Obama and stooges, but it was great! Watch the moving dot ......

Yeah, gotta be racism. All I can think it would be. Not his red-diaper background or his bomb-throwing associates or his racist pastor or his sullen wife. None of that, none of that missing-documents stuff, we all know that that is just a bunch of Kluxer smack!

Did she ever come clean over how she felt when “Uncle Tom” Powell endorsed her man Barry Soeroto?

Rush had asked about it when the endorsement came (and she was no where to be found).

Wull, us here redneck racists in Pennsylvanie is sure gonna vote for McCain. - said with maximum sarcasm

You know, because our own state's Dems put out the word that IF you don't vote for Obama it's ONLY because you are a redneck, racist and we don't want to be that, now do we? Bottom feeders like Murtha pretty much presuming the worst of his constituents and using some kind of reverse psychology to guilt people into fearing they might be racists (and they're not), and they need to 'prove' this by voting for the socialist.

If Obama loses, we all know why and its never his fault! (laughing)

Yeah, I have a feeling he'll be crying foul for a while.
