Hillary is behind in NC in all the polls I’ve seen.
Like 60-70%
The insane panic of the Democrats is the true funny part.
At best it will be a nominal effect but the Democrats now see phantoms stealing the election.
The Shadow knows what evil lurks in the hearts of the Democrats...
I don't see a problem with that.
He runs America. You know it. I know it. The American people know it.
As far as you know. Just how many illegals have moved in?
I agree, no problem in that.
Although, I'd sure love to see republican cross-over Chaos Voters write in Rush Limbaugh's name and not waste a good vote. Talk about the hissy fits the drive-bys would have...what an absolutely develish chaotic twist!
this thread makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside
I was remembering an earlier headline from WRAL TV.
But here’s one that shows Clinton Catching up with Obama:

I would be very surprised if Obama was leading Hillary among NC Dems.....but it does appear that the black Democrat vote isgoing overwhelmingly to Obama.
So....the polls may be correct showing Obama leading in NC.
A lot actually. There’s been a number of local political uprisings over this. Democratic blacks switching sides because they feel their kids are getting squeezed out of public schools.
Not that many illegals in Hickory. They are mostly in Charlotte where the most jobs are. They have a Mong festival every year down the road in Morganton though.
To all Interested Conservative Activists: YOU HAVE UNTIL APRIL 11th 2008 TO GET INVOLVED OR POSITION YOURSELF FOR OPERATION CHAOS NC CAMPAIGN. YOU MUST RE-REGISTER AS AN UNAFILLIATED VOTER.
DO NOT WAIT FOR “ORDERS” TO GET STEP ONE DONE!
STEP ONE: Re-Register as an Unaffiliated Voter in North Carolina. Only by doing this can you can Democrat or Republican in both the Primary and General elections. You could register as a Democrat but this is needless and pointless to do and would take too much of your soul. All you need to be for now is Unaffiliated.
Do not delay. Go to your local Library or Post Office and pick up a NC Voter Registration card. Note the mailing address of your local county Board of Elections (BOE) on the box holding the registration card or you can always Google it easily. Fill out the card and be sure to scrawl somewhere on there for good measure that you are a Republican who wants to re-register as an Unaffiliated (what NC calls Independent). Fill out all the info on the card, takes you all of five minutes. Fold it, address it, stamp it and mail it to your county BOE. Or you can drop it by if you want. Then call your BOE after a few days to insure they re-registered you to your satisfaction. They can pull it right up on the state wide voter registration system.
STEP TWO: For those who dont want to take the time to go vote in the Primary i.e. stand in line you dont have to. You can vote by Absentee ballot and you dont need any reason to vote absentee. Not that the lines are long anyway in Primary Elections but if you are like me and hate extra trips or lines then this is for you. Stop by your BOE just before the election and pick up a DEMOCRAT Absentee ballot and you can vote now. You can also write them a simple note with your name and date of birth and address on it, asking to vote DEMOCRAT by Absentee ballot and send it to your BOE (or fax, or hand carry).
Yeah baby, PAYBACK FOR MICHIGAN DemocRAT Crossover Voting which was pumped by MarKOS at DailyKOSmunist!
Hillary becomes the candidate for the dem party. Hillary picks Obama as her running mate (the only way she can win) and the party comes together and beat the living chap out Mac. Guess who will be stuck with Hillary for the next eight years? And to add insult to injury, Obama can be the pres for the next eight years afterwards. Without the Operation Chaos, Obama wins and Mac becomes the pres for the next four years.
Operation Chaos is the dumbest idea this side of stupidity. No love will be lost for Rush because this will give him something to hem and haw about for the next 16 years and sell more t-shirts and hats.
Operation Chaos (taken from the play books of the DEMs) is a dumb idea and those of you that let Rush think for you will pay the price for years to come.
Hillary needed to knock it out of the park in Texas and Ohio to have a CHANCE to catch Obama in the delegate count. She won both by less than expected margins and didn't significantly dent Obama’s delegate lead. Not only that her lead in Pennsylvania has shrunk to nearly nothing so even after that primary I doubt anything will be settled.
The convention will have either Hillary getting the nod on the strength of super delegates, not the elected delegates, or Obama getting it with super delegates turning their back on Hillary in the interest of not “stealing the nomination” from the popularly elected Obama and throwing the convention into a riot.
I'm hoping for the riot!
I really cannot see Hillary #2 on an Obama ticket, OR Obama #2 on a Hillary ticket.
Finally, unless something significant happens, Democrats have been out polling Republicans by about half again THROUGHOUT the country. McCain will have to really pull something out of his Astrological SignS to defeat either Hillary or Obama come November.
The above is my opinion, so it is worth what you paid for it.
You and I are a tiny minority here who see the real goal behind the so called operation chaos which is indeed operation elect Hillary Clinton.
The Clintons are coming back to kick your butt and destroy the country. Did you miss the Clintons boots on your neck?
I'm not looking forward to ANY time under a President Clinton or President Obama, but if you have any ideas how to prevent it I'm listening. The presumptive Republican Nominee apparently won't engage either Democrat, and you just ignored the part about HILLARY CANNOT CATCH BARRACK, she can't do it.
Finally, folks need to prepare themselves even if McCain can win, the Congress he will most likely have WILL NOT extend the Tax Cuts. Either Democrat may not be happy with the automatic tax increase in 2010 and may try to either more it up, or increase taxes above the old rate, either one will extend our current downturn. Any of you folks who remember the Carter 10-11% unemployment, 19% interest rates, gas lines, and Nixon's price controls hope you're feeling nostalgic cause here they come. In the interest of full disclosure McCain's Carbon Tax idea's are going to crater the economy also so pick your poison.
I don't want to doom and gloom, but Fred(my guy), Rudy, Mitt, Huck, and Duncan didn't “Git ‘R Dun” couldn't glue together enough folks, and a few may not have been any better than McCain, so we're stuck with McCain and I can't see him changing the above cited voter split enough to win come the General. I'm not wishing it, I just don't want folks having ROSE COLORED GLASSES and waking up the day after the Election wondering what happened.
So what’s to stop Obama from picking Hillary with or without Operation Chaos, using your logic? And if thats the case, then why does Operation Chaos matter one way or the other?
Like most short sighted people who are terrified of Hillary (you seriously think Republicans cant beat Hillary at this point? Seriously?), what you fail to see is that this is about maintaining and expanding the divide in the Democrat party all the way to Denver (riots are possible, happened before) where even the Democrats admit that if that happens they will not be able to pull their party together in the 2 months remaining to the General and that scenario is a sure win for McCain according to most Dems.
The Democrats have went to their convention bitterly divided at least twice in the past and each time this happened they lost the general election. History has a way of repeating itself especially in politics.
I am convinced that the most of the Rush Haters here who are coming out strongly against Operation Chaos simply dont want a McCain win, for whatever reason. And if thats the case, why not just come right out and say it? So the question to you point blank is, do you or do you not want a McCain win?
This is about Operation Chaos in NC. You don’t register as a Dem in NC to participate in OC in NC. You register as an Unafilliated. So how is that filling up the Dem data base? Besides, I enjoy tweaking Dems whenever I get a chance and I have not thrown my arm out yet dropping ANY junk mail into the garbage.
The real question is point blank: Do you want McCain to win the presidency?
