Conservative radio buffoon Rush Limbaugh thinks of himself as an ace strategist and so he thought he was being extremely clever back in March when he launched "Operation Chaos" an effort to undermine frontrunner Barack Obama's chances in the fall election by prolonging the Democratic primary season and forcing Obama to deplete his resources early. Rushbo, accordingly, urged his conservative Republican listeners to take advantage of open primaries in many thats that allow non-Democrats to participate and vote for Hilary Clinton in order to drag the race out as long as possible. Brilliant eh? And how mischievous!
Unfortunately the Limbaugh his plan was too clever by half and has backfired.
DNC chair Howard Dean has talked about the importance of a "50 state strategy" for the past four years and Obama embraced the idea but it was the prolonged primary season that allowed Obama to implement it by virtue of necessity as the never ending race forced him to recruit ground organizers and campaign in red states that are usually flyover states for the Dems such as Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Indiana. When the fall campaign came around, polls showed Obama competitive in states that the Democrats had long written off as a result of his spring campaigning and allowed him to use ground organizations left over from the primary season in order to keeps those states competitive forcing McCain to campaign in states which should have been sure things for him. Moreover, Obama won North Carolina and Indiana and thereby assured himself the presidency thanks, in no small part, to Rush Limbaugh's efforts.
[Obama sock puppet - had been organizing for a long, long time]
I agree - this is exactly the communist/socialist training in gear. This is what they do from the “ground-up” - organize.
As long as the people in the US stay tuned to the MSM - and continued to get spooned fed - then the Democrats will continue to win elections. It’s not that they have to say anything important - the news will always blackmail and smear the competition!
This is how communism works - take your enemy out within the perspective of the public - then after they lose their credibility - they can easily be wasted behind closed doors.
It’s websites like FR that keep the rest of us informed - and it is here that we must build in numbers by convincing people to turn off their TV’s and start to think for themselves once more!

Dream on, if you can dream, so can I, if 0 turns out not to be legit the supreme can nullify his election, then Biden becomes CIC or maybe we have to re do the whole danged thing, Mac steps aside and Palin wins the repeat election. Oh well.
me thinks you’re jealous of El-Rushbo

Good night Irene, and best of luck on your love search.........
Bull. Those states were already on the Obamanation’s radar anyway and are states that have a changing demographic. They knew this and thus they were targeted - troll.
All these Obamanatrons have been leaving their blue states in droves because were they have been living, the Liberals have run the economies into the dirt, so they are moving to places like NC where the economy has been relatively strong and property values holding far above depressed Blue state areas. Hillary staying in the race as long as possible was the biggest thorn in Obama’s side.
Guilty!
“Conservative radio buffoon...”
You signed up today and started with this?
IBTZ!
“Indiana? Obama didnt win Indiana.”
Actually, he did. Surprised? He wouldn’t have been able to had he not campaigned there in May due to the prolonged primary fight (thanks, in part to Operation Chaos).
Hope and Change, Dude! Like, u really rock! I’m quittin my job tomorrow cuz Borat is gonna take care of me!
Now that the MSM and Obama has exhausted the ‘Sarah smears’ now they’re after their other nemesis: Rush Limbaugh. Rational conservatives know that the financial meltdown sunk McCain’s campaign. Sarah even admitted as much. And the polls proved it.
Obama, Barack Joe Biden (Democratic) 1080823
Barr, Bob Wayne A. Root (Libertarian) 25556
McCain, John Sarah Palin (Republican) 1180668
Faith, Michael L. (W/I(Americas Independent)) 12
Castle, Darrell L. (W/I(Constitution)) 4
McKinney, Cynthia A. (W/I(Green)) 20
Not official yet, but numbers from Friday.
Damn close for a “red state” nevertheless.
The vanity trolls are now posting nobody blogs in an effort to hide from the Viking Kitties.
Another troll signing up to post a pointless vanity. Ho hum...
Only problem with this thread is that too many Freepers agree with this clown.
The Ministry of Truth is working overtime lately.
Go back to the DUmp and take your Obama kneepads with you.
