I see this coming back to bite them on the ass in a big way.

I am at the point of praying for a brokered convention.

I guess when you live in your Mom's basement, are a full time student working toward a Master's in "Women and Ethnic Studies", are collecting student aid, food stamps and welfare, you can afford to take the political future of America as a joke. Out here in the real world, there's nothing funny about it.

I think Rush was wrong with operation chaos....I do believe it may have some impact giving us ‘the messiah’ over Hilary...who is no breath of fresh air either...but I do believe would have been more beatable.

[Michael.SF.]

Rick Santorum will inevitably follow the same path once he gets properly vetted.

As in the same manner Obama was 'properly vetted'?

[TShaunK]

Good for the Kos. Lets hope it backfires on them like it backfired on Rush.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

For even the most brain dead, of the Santorum supporters, it is quite obvious that the Left does not only hope Santorum is the GOP nominee, they are doing all they can to make it happen.

[MrB]

“Aping”?

Isn’t that... racist?

[Pinkbell]

Hey, a vote is a vote. Go out and vote for him. Santorum will take it.

Remember this, though, Operation Chaos was ultimately a failure. It kept the process going a bit longer, but in the end, Obama still ended up winning the nomination and Presidency. Those who don’t learn from history...

[Red Badger]

They may be doing us a huge favor......................unwittingly, of course.........

[Brookhaven]

Romney will be the weakest opponent vs Obama.

So, if this will get someone besides Romney the nomination, go for it.

After all, if it’s fair for the GOP establishment to attempt to swing the nomination to Romney (moving up the primaries, calling the wrong winner in Iowa, not counting all the votes in Maine, etc...) why is it any worse for liberals—who have a legal right to vote in the primaries (at least they aren’t committing vote fraud)—to try and swing the nomination to someone else?

[Fiji Hill]

Daily Kos blog boss Markos Moulitsas announced on Wednesday "Operation Hilarity," urging liberals to turn out and vote for Rick Santorum to "keep the GOP clown show going!"

"Operation Hilarity" is appropriately named because the joke will be on Markos Moulitsas.

A goodly amount of 1955 would do the country a lot of good. What was our national debt the? Entitlements? Class warfare? Pre-’Great Society.’ Plus, there was the 55’ Chevy!

[GraceG]

[ but you are still the repressed, conspiracy theory driven John Birch Republicans of 1955 ]

This is HATE speech!

[Nateman]

All this time I thought the Left’s choice of mayhem was Ron Paul. He has served to drain the crazy vote from the real players.

[Darren McCarty]

DMF Kos was pushing for Romney last time.

It’ll be Hilarity when Santorum WINS;

‘Operation Hilarity’ to Vote for Santorum By Tim Graham Created 02/16/2012

God works in mysterous ways!..

[dead]

There will be alot of bluff and bluster about this on the internets and MSNBC, but how many actual, real-life votes will actually hit the bottom of the ballot box because of this effort?

Less than a dozen.

[bramps]

The author is correct about one thing...
‘Republican turnout has sucked, and appears to be getting worse by the contest,’...

---

...but turnout was up in South Carolina where voters were excited to show up and vote for a conservative man with big ideas and a great ability to defend and promote them, Newt Gingrich. Then Romney's knives came out and cut Newt down, leaving us, hopefully temporarily, with two candidates who are just very difficult to get excited about. Let's hope Newt can rise again and give the electorate someone they fell is worth showing up to vote for.
