“Obama absolutely, positively cannot win the general election. Hillary has about a 50-50 shot, but Obama would go down in flames and take a lot of lower ticket ‘Rats down with him.”
Oh Reeeallly? “absolutely?”, “positively?” Famous last words that many have had to eat later throughout history after they uttered them.
With the “I-Was-In-Combat-In-Bosnia lie, Hillary now will be massively 527 Swiftboated out of existance if she were to win the nomination with ads centered around her Bosina Combat Lies vs McCain actually spending five years in the Hanoi Hilton after being shot down.
However, your entire premise is wrong. Operation Chaos has NOTHING to do with trying to get Hillary the nomination. How hard is it to get through some thick heads anyway?
Now, we understand that there are Republicans who are so afraid of Hillary they pretty much have to change their diapers whenever they see or hear her. They have a panic attack, massive anxiety. Well we all suffered under the Clintons but they are done for, time to accept it.
Other Republicans have a bit more moxie and realize the Clintons are Cooked. They are done. Stick a fork in ‘em. Their popularity ratings have plummeted and there is no getting back the black or hard Left vote for the Clintons. Those voters will revenge-vote for McCain rather than see Hillary elected.
On the flip side, it’s the Independent votes that will decide the election and they are still solidly in the Obama camp even after the Reverend Wrong flap. Just because you can’t stand the thought of a black being the POTUS doesn’t mean the rest of the nation is on board with you in that sentiment. I’m to the right of Atila and I find Obama, Reverend Wrong flap aside, as very appealing and I can see how their are some light-weight Republicans even actually voting for him. Do not underestimate the Independent vote. In a McCain-Hillary match up the Indies break far more for McCain because he proven “Maverick” tendencies works in his favor. And Hillary has already lost at least 25% of the 50% that are now in the Obama camp. That plus the indies means that McCain wins landslide against Hillary in November - but I doubt she will be the nominee.
See, what you fail to see is that this is an exercise in inflicting the maximum amount of damage on the Democrat party. What is so hard to understand about that concept?
It’s past time to start thinking outside the political box and go for a win using whatever stratagy works or presents it’self.
Feel free to bookmark my post and ping me the day after the election if I'm wrong. You'll have a right to gloat, but I don't think you'll get the opportunity.

If Rush isn't trying to hand Hillary the nomination then he's totally clueless.

That pretty much describes what I've been hearing from Republicans who are terrified of Obama, notwithstanding the fact that he's been a paper tiger all along.

Doubtful. Not to mention that many blue collar white Democrats won't vote for Obama, but will vote for Hillary.

What brought that on? Desperation?

What are you, a seminar Rush listener?

McCain has a good shot at beating Hillary, but he'd mop the floor up with Obama.

I think I understand it very well. McCain vs. Hillary would be close and Dems running for other offices wouldn't be impacted much by that race. Obama would lose badly enough to hurt 'Rats down the ticket. The other races are what's important to me because conservatives have already lost the presidency no matter who wins.
