Operation Chaos distorted Hillary's vote totals - they won't vote for her in the GE

1. Precisely!

And, add that to the fact that primary results never equal GE results and all the Clinton meme threads circulating this evening are moot.

Thank you for pointing out this very important truth.

[splat]

2. Of course primary results don't equal GE results -- red state Dem primaries are meaningless

[anonymous171]

3. Yep, that's why the results in KY's primary won't mean anything.

[splat]

4. Obama's Alaska, Idaho, Kansas, Nebraska, N. Dakota, Utah and Va. last went Dem for LBJ.

[anonymous171]

5. Yep. That's why we judge the nominee by pledged delegates won, not electoral votes.

[splat]

8. We don't 'judge the nominee,' all delegates select a nominee at the convention

[anonymous171]

10. Correct. And the candidate with the most votes wins.

So popular vote is meaningless, same with electoral votes. It's the voice of the people through their pledged delegates.

[splat]

11. Well, actually, there's a failsafe for the candidates who nosedive, post-McGovern

[PBS Poll-435]

13. And thank GOD for that!

Denver!

14. Worked so well for Kennedy, didn't it?

And so poorly for the party.

[PBS Poll-435]

16. Wow! The parallels are stunning!

Except that they ain't.

[anonymous171]

18. The pledged delegates didn't break their pledges and SDs didn't overturn them

But he wouldn't be denied his nomination, and so it had to be wrest from his fat fingers. Same is going to happen to Hillary. She will be politically stained, just as Kennedy was.

[PBS Poll-435]

20. Umm....Let's not go there. Seriously.

[PBS Poll-435]

6. And WY, KS, NE, ID are in the MF'n BAG!!!

W00t!!!!

[AtomicKitten]

7. No worries. It is the delegate count that determines the winner.

[PBS Poll-435]

9. Thank GOD the bulk of Obama's delegates came from Democratic States!!!

W00t!!!

Oh Wait...

They didn't?

Damn. That sucks.

[kid a]

15. What is this democratic state that you speak of?

I'm having less and less tolerance for idiocy?

[PBS Poll-435]

17. *Hint* It isn't Utah!

[anonymous171]

19. It's the entire country. Democrats everywhere, not just blue states, get to weigh in on the process.

[PBS Poll-435]

22. And where did Obama collect his delegates?

AL, MS, GA, SC, NC, UT, ND, ID, KS, NE, AK.

HUGE Democratic States!

[anonymous171]

25. What did I just say. Read it again. The democrats in every state get to weigh in.

One state is not more important than any other.

[PBS Poll-435]

26. If that were true, there would be a homogeneous selection process

But there isn't.

ID ROCKS YO!

[Occam Bandage]

27. I note you seem to have forgotten WI, MN, IA, VA, HI, MD, DE, VT, CO, ME, CT, WA, NV, MO, and DC.

Why might that be?

[PBS Poll-435]

28. LOL...

Because LOL!

[Occam Bandage]

29. I'd laugh too.

[PBS Poll-435]

31. LOL CT, DE? DC? LOL.

Wow, just WOW.

[Occam Bandage]

32. Do those people not count again? It's so hard to remember.

[PBS Poll-435]

33. Nah...They matter.

Everyone matters.

But the Electoral Map is what it is.

And Utah, North Dakota, Alaska et al....

Don't seem to help our goal.

[Occam Bandage]

34. And MO, VA, CO, WI, MN, IA, NV aren't useful?

Keep in mind Obama wins MI more consistently than Hillary does, and that he stands a very real chance of winning ND. Hell, he puts TX, NC, and NE in play too.

[Occam Bandage]

23. Hint: We're not electing a President of the Blue States of America.

[PBS Poll-435]

24. Nope!

Utah is the tiebreaker on this!

[populistdriven]

12. Who is Hillary?

Is she that former presidential candidate? Bless her heart.

Remember how competitive of a race it was?

[bluebellbaby]

21. How would you know who voted for whom and the so called "operation chaos"

crap is just that crap...do you people really give Limbaugh so much power? Please...and if your claim can't be proven, then you shouldn't spew it here...unless you were part of the "operation chaos"...

[Cha]

30. You're the one who's spewin' shit ..why don't you

take your own damn advice.

[bluebellbaby]

35. You have absolutely no verifiable proof that "operation chaos" did anything

this is just another excuse to attack Hillary...veiled in supposition...

If you people actually think Rush Limbaugh has power...then so does the "tooth fairy"...and posts such as this should be labeled under "fairy tales"...we've allowed ourselves to be divided by the MSM...
