I believe in doing unto others as I would have them do unto me.
If Republicans want closed primaries, they should demand them and not shut up until they get them. That still doesn’t justify debasing one’s duty to vote.
All respect has been lost for Rush.
He is a FOOL.
You know that half of his brain that he keeps tied behind his back that Rush brags about?
Well Rush, it is time you untied it because the half you have been using isn't cutting it!
When Hillary Clinton gets inaugurated I will blame Rush, Levin, Hannity, Ingraham et al. for electing Hillary.
When I endure 8 years of suffering, having to watch this wretched, evil,screeching woman every day on my PC destroy my America, Capitalism, the free market that I love I will remember what Rush and Levin did.
I hate the Clintons and to have to watch them for 8 years destroy the U.S. and turn it into a socialist state, and let in hundreds of millions of illegals will be torture for me. I would have been happy to never have to see or HEAR that awful, evil, socialist, liberal woman Hillary Clinton again. Thanks Rush for nothing.
All very good points.
OTOH, I'm wondering if it isn't better for the Witch if they only TALK about doing a re-do. Then she gets the benefit of being the victim (again) and is able to freelance as to what the new results would have been and is able to motivate her supporters in the coming primaries by wailing about how even the DNC supports a re-do now, but they can't figure out how to do it.
Had she not won by the margins she did on Super Tuesday II, none of this discussion would never have come up. Howard Dean has never been so against something (the re-do) in his life (because it directly undermines his authority).
It's only because now the race WILL come down to the superdelegates---and they, by any means available, want to avoid deciding the ticket (although it is their duty to do so)---that the DNC is looking at the re-do as a way, perhaps, to take the matter out of their hands. I.e, get rid of this hot potato.
But the re-do would never have been seriously contemplated had Obama delivered more of a knock-out punch on ST II. So cross-overs definitely helped Hildy by increasing her margin.
She apparently has not attended the West Palm Beach School for RAT Party Election Officials - Chad Division.
They WON’T vote for her...Again, she is the ONLY canidate that poll respondents say they cannot wait to vote AGAINST.
As I heard one guy say on a radio show, “I would crawl through glass naked to vote against Hillary.”
Because the Rat system is proportional, “winning” a race means very little.
What counts is the award of delegates and, therefore, the margin of victory or defeat.
Suit yourself.
I think it’s exceedingly silly (and worse) to pawn around with our country’s future as if it’s some game of payback for what those meanies in the other party did to me.
If Republicans want closed primaries, get them.
When I asked why, he said "..... do you really want some kid on mind altering drugs driving a tank?"
With Rush's endorsement of and referring to romney as a conservative and his asking his Texas listeners to vote for hillary, I'm starting to wonder if I want Rush driving a tank.
Another thing that bothers me is that many of us conservatives hate the Clintons and the last thing we want 8 more years of them especially with Hillary at the helm.
It just seemed to me that Rush and Levin were a little too enthusiastic and gleeful in telling us to vote for Hillary Clinton. It seems to me that Rush and Mark Levin don’t hate Hillary Clinton and are not disgusted at the prospect of 8 years of her as president and on TV every day. So why don’t they hate her? Something seems fishy here.
I emailed Rush and let him have it: elrushbo@eibnet.com
Every crossover vote benefitted Hildy because it increased the margin by which she won.
In a proportional system, only the margin matters.
How mature!
I agree 100%. This was one of the biggest political misculations ever. With a loss in Texas Hillary would have be done - out of the race and probably never to be a factor again.
Keep in mind that Obamamania has only been going on for 8-10 weeks and there’s 35 yet to go to the election. Hillary is right - he’s not bee fully vetted and 35 weeks is a long time for the press to nose around, the Rezko trial, his voting record revealed to the uninformed. A vague message of change will not play in the general election. He was, by far, the most beatable of the two.
Stupid, stupid, stupid. I wonder is Rush really trying to help create turmoil with in the Dem party or ensure his rating that 8 years of HRC?
Word.
Sigh.
You can't possibly be serious about that! Rush, had been scheduled to be off for ages in order to play golf on those two days.
Those of you who are criticizing Rush about suggesting that GOP voters cross over and vote for Hillary disagree with him so you didn't cross over to vote for her. Yet, you seem to think that other Republicans and conservatives, who did cross over to vote for her, lack your ability to make their own decisions about how to vote without Rush's advice. Maybe they happened to agree with him!
Even in open primary states, you can't vote in both. Anyone who voted in the GOP primary would be ineligible to vote in the Democratic primary.
Wrong. The media will do a make-over for Hillary. Those numbers are written on the wind, and can change, and will change.
