A brokered convention would be somewhat chaotic, but could be the Dems worst nightmare if a real conservative comes away with the nomination...JFK

Wow, talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel for news to slam Romney.
This one takes the cake.
Nuff said.

Let them do this. I’ll be happy if they help push McCain out of the running there.
Democratic state lawmaker praises Huckabee (link only)
A dem state rep ala Detroit says to the press to support Huckabee because he is reminded of Gomer Pyle. (Dem codespeak for sabotage.)
When the dems pulled these shenanigans in 2000 they already had a clear candidate for their party. This year they still need to pick a candidate so I can’t see large numbers crossing over.
>>"In 1972, Republican voters in Michigan decided to make a little mischief, crossing over to vote in the open Democratic primary and voting for segregationist Democrat George Wallace, seriously embarrassing the state's Democrats. In fact, a third of the voters (PDF) in the Democratic primary were Republican crossover votes. In 1988, Republican voters again crossed over, helping Jesse Jackson win the Democratic primary, helping rack up big margins for Jackson in Republican precincts. (Michigan Republicans can clearly be counted on to practice the worst of racial politics.) "
So Republicans are racist when they cross over and voted as spoiler for a segregationist. And Republicans are racist when they voted as spoiler for Jesse Jackson. IOW, no matter what they are racist no matter who they vote for. The logic is astounding.
Now as to why they are slow on the uptake. Rush has been talking about this issue all week. Conservative voters went for Romney in Iowa and NH. Liberals crossed over and went for Huckabee and McCain giving them both wins. Rush has been slamming Muck and HicCain all week about it and it is hurting them. The crossover which helped them win those states has now hurt them thanks to the King of talk radio. Dingleberry here is responding to changing events on the ground (ie Rush calling them out into the open) and now that it is out in the open they suddenly want everyone to think they support Romney which wil hurt him.
>>>If we can help push Mitt over the line, not only do we help keep their field fragmented, but we also pollute Romney's victory. How "legitimate" will the Mittster's victory look if liberals provide the margin of victory? Think of the hilarity that will ensue.
This is an open admission that Rush had a good week. Muck and HicCains wins are not viewed as legitimate by Republicans thanks in part to Rush and other conservative talk radio shows. Liberals know if they don't stop Romney early it's over. They hope to deligitimize his campaign in the way Rush has deligitimized Hicks and MuCkains.
