Didn't see one poted yet, and Early exit polling is already out.
Let's all watch and enjoy as the Democrats continue to rip each others throats out!
Actually, I think the “war in two countries” while he did talk about the long struggle still underminded the true fight we are in.
It’s as if FDR talked about WWII as “two wars” against Japan and Germany.
We would have an outside chance of winning if the Republican candidate was alive.
If someone told you to slit your wrists for the good of the country, would you? If others did so, what would you think of them? Just because someone asks you to do something that means you should?
Don’t be a stooge.
Geez everyone, take a deeeeep breath.
McCain is the Republican nominee. Period. If you like him, fine. If you don’t, that’s OK too. There are a few of his positions I’m totally opposite off but I’d never vote for Hillary or Obama. So it’s vote for McCain or undervote.
I don’t get the bashing Rush. Ya, you think Hillary might pull it out tonight in Texas, maybe she will. I don’t think anyone who has posted here tonight would listen to “X” and say vote for candidate “Y” and do it. To blame this on Rush and predict Hillary will win the White House because of it...play back your DVR or read the break down of how those mind-numbed Republicans are voting in Texas...CNN covered the percentages and they were 54 Hillary, 46 Obama, the same percentages that Independent votes cast.
The bottom line. The Democrat race is going to be a knock-down, kicking, spitting and biting fistfight complete with black eyes (sorry Obama)and bloody noses!!!! Even if Hillary wins the Texas popular vote she loses in delegates. Obama is the annoited to his followers and that is saying it mildly...if you think his supporters will vote for Hillary (if she is the candidate for the Dems) just look at the bile being posted here about Rush, McCain, and fellow posters.
Personally, I can’t wait to see a very fractured Dem convention and believe me, that is what it’s shaping up to be. Look at the name calling already on stealing delegates.
He cited a number of cases of people who were overcome with bills and for them the kind of hope he offered wasn’t “empty” I tuned in midsentence but I believe the first victim he cited was having trouble paying for their tuition and paying for the health care bills of an ailing sibling. Having a hard time paying for your own tuition? Welcome to the real world. It is unreasonably expensive, but no one paid a cent for my private school tuition except me. How did this sibling manage their finances before they became ill? Do they have kids they can’t afford? Did they squander their money on feelgood items instead of insurance and now they can’t cover the bills? Perhaps not, but the question is worth asking. Another person cited *suddenly* couldn’t afford their mortgage...gee, I wonder how. I know, I’ve got my broad brush out. Not everyone who falls on hard times is irresponsible, but I wonder if most of those he (and Hillary) are pandering to haven’t brought it upon themselves. I hear his tearjerking speech and just have to ask these questions...

You’re right. There is no comparison between McCain and Hillary. Hillary has a chance to be elected president.
The MSM will back whoever is the Dem nominee...so maybe prolonging the inevitable will help...
What I found funny, was during the Fox discussion, one of them stated that 'Pennsylvania is really 'Ohio' than Ohio.' Ooooookay...long nite on set I guess.
i know what Rush was trying to do, and i think he was wrong on this one... they are not going to bloody each other so badly that they damage each other's chances once there is a winner... liberals have no principles... they will support each other in the end... no matter what...
Doesnt matter what the dnc wants. hill does not want someone on her tix who people like more than her.
You are dealing with power hungry sociopaths who only think of themselves. Get a grip.
Barack Obama 2008 - Hope, where the rats don’t outnumber the computers!
Where does he think of this stuff?
let her call it a victory all day and night. She is now so far behind with little ability to make it up. It keeps the race going, it keeps them bloodletting. But make no mistake, no matter the momentum; she has a Huckabee chance of a miracle after today’s results. She needed 20-30 point victories. She got nothing but 20 delegates tops and a Huckabee ticket to carry on.
Follow the money. Follow the media sensationalism of the “story”.
Give it a week and see what I mean.
She lost?
Excuse my ignorance, but can you tell me why? If it’s not too much trouble.
I watched her for 30 seconds and was so sickened at our seemingly-next Chavez or Mugabe that I had to turn off my TV.

Michael Steel, Tom Tancredo, Duncan Hunter, J.C. Watts, or Zel Miller.
Hillarys lead in TX has increased from 50,000 to 55,000 as the totals reporting went from 55% to 58% ...
The morons on DU are going NUTS!!! LOL!!! Go Clinton!
Ok, since it’s amateur hour tonight I’ll explain it very clearly for you. Hillary has won Ohio by almost 20%, she will win Texas by about 2-3% (Thank you Rush,Laura, Hannity).
The elite of the party, the hierarchy (SuperDelegates) will now question the viability of the empty suit Obama, they will push for Fl/Michigan to vote again and count the votes, Hillary will win big in Pennslyvania and she will overtake Obama or get within 20-30 votes, leaving it up to the SuperDelegates. They will go with the stronger more viable candidate. She will beat McCain like Muhammad Ali beat Chuck Wepner, to a pulp....landslide.
Limbaugh has done alot for the conservative movement, but he is an absolute moron on this election night and it will be more clear when you realize that the Dem elite will not allow a brokered convention to happen.
People, you are getting 8 years of Hillary and Bill Clinton in the WhiteHouse and up in your grill, get out the KY.
You would have thought she had won enough delegates tonight to win the nomination by the way she gave her speech.
“You’re right. But are there any senators with those qualities, anymore?”
That is the big question. On my two top issues: GW and Amnesty, HC, BO, and McCain are in lock step. I think we could get enough senators to stand up to the dems on Amnesty, but not if McCain is President. I think the only way we stop amnesty is to have a Dem in the white house and fight like heck to block it. On GW not sure if we do or not.
At some point we may get our natural resources opened up, but obviously very tough. Again though, the only hope is a wacky Dem energy bill that Senators could go to the mat on.
There are a lot of tools they could use. But use them not against McCain, I fear.
