I believe Rush said that the data showed 20% of “conservatives” voting for Hussein. I find that to be rather dubious.

Thank you for the correction. I’d like to find that “dubious” too, but after reading so many comments in the past two years at several websites, it isn’t impossible to believe that there were still 20% of conservatives out there who still wanted to teach the GOP a lesson in spite of Obama’s extremism.

I might agree. But...

A poll worker / vote counter from Ohio posted something here yesterday evening. It seems his county - a reliable Republican county - got an EIGHTY PERCENT turnout yesterday. This in a county that beat Kerry by only 2% in 2004, because Democrats turned out so hard that year, trying to win Ohio for Kerry. I forget the percent of Republicans he said voted in 2004, but it was less than 80%.

So, with an 80% turnout of Republicans yesterday, surely they walked all over the Democrats in this county in Ohio this year, right?

NO, actually. Obama took the county by a 33% margin, with LESS Dim participation than in 2004. Which means that about 25% or maybe even 30% of the Republicans voted for Obama. Or maybe almost 100% of the "no party" voters went for Obama.

Why didn't we get the "granny" vote? We gave them a billion dollars of free medication, exactly for the reason of buying those votes.

Why didn't we get the illegal alien vote? Neither Bush nor McCain has any interest in enforcing our border laws.

Like Rush said, a lot of Republicans lost yesterday. So what - conservatives haven't run a candidate since 1994.

Here in Indy, a lot of people supported our (R) gov, but voted for the Marxist. Why? Change. These are people that get their news from the likes of pMSNBC, CNN and the like. THey drank Kool-Aid and were hooked.

I am going to take GREAT PLEASURE in reminding them, when 0bama Hussein raises their taxes because they're rich (because they have any job). I'm going to rub their noses in every little mistake, misstep that the Emperor makes. I'm going to learn from the democrat playbook. I'm going to get in their faces about it. And when they say I'm being mean or whatever, I'm going to tell them I learned it from them.
