Hillary 'won' the Texas primary!

[nebula]

through shameless fearmongering, swiftboating, deceit, pandering, etc.

That her ill-gotten gains have been wiped out by the final delegate count, is poetic justice.



Congrats to Obama and supporters for the Texas win! :toast:

[Lucinda]

1. What was the final caucus count?

[seabeyond]

2. ya and in all that, she didnt win, but lost n/t

[peace13]

3. Should probably fix you title. Obama won! n/t

[Cant trust em]

5. Clinton won the primary, Obama is winning the caucus.

Looks like Obama will win the total delegate count, ergo, the state. But the OP subject line still counts.

17. My bad.

I guess we get there in a round about way. Peace, Kim

4. Texas comes through for the

6. Time for your meds.

7. Great Idea

I might open up a pharmacy here and make a killing for the next 8 months.

8. According to Thomm Hartmann who has

numbers to support this - the Republicans crossed over in large numbers to vote for Hillary just to keep her in the race.

9. Thom Hartmann is reading Reason (rw) analysis touting the Rush effect.

18. Thom Hartmann

was interviewed on Fox when the e-mails were coming in from people who crossed over. He knows what was said and what the numbers were.

15. I know of at least three Repubs who did in my neck of the woods. n/t

[AZBlue]

16. Did you hear that today?! Even Rush Limbaugh knows HRC can't take the nom.

So scary.

[Bread and Circus]

10. Obama won the Texas Two-Step. This is a delegate race. I get your point though :)

:toast:

11. And don't forget the help from Rush Limbaugh

And all his Republican listeners who did what he told them too and crossed over to vote Democratic for Hillary. She couldn't have done it without them.

[nebula]

14. Exactly!

It seems the evil twins of Rush and Rove were on her payroll.

I can see why she would want to keep her tax returns under wraps.

[goclark]

22. That's were the 5 million went - Rove and Rush

They were doing the Monster Mash.

Wish someone could photoshop that one - Hill,Bill Mc, Rush and Rove doing the Monster Mash!

[Steeler1623]

12. And a little help from Limbaugh

[Tarc]

13. Wow, we're this many days out and the O-Bots are STILL feasting on sour grapes?

:rofl:

19. Hillary won the Texas primary skirmish ....

... but lost the caucus skirmish, and also the Texas pri-caucus battle.

Considering the fear-mongering and deceitfully negative campaigning, Obama did damn well down there. Kudos to active Texans.

(Note that the caucuses likely had less anti-Democratic Republican infiltration. Interfering Rethugs would likely vote in the primary, but wouldn't waste their time in going to a caucus.)

20. yes, i'm inclined to agree

If you're a repug, it's one thing to step into a booth, draw the curtain, and vote for Hillary. It's quite another to spend a few hours at a caucus and publically state your "preference" before your friends and neighbors. I imagine most repugs crossing over at a caucus are truely supporting the candidate and not just gaming the election. One of the benefits of a caucus, i suppose...

[krkaufman]

21. Exactly.

You explicity expressed the point I didn't take the time to detail, that it wouldn't be just about the time spent to caucus... but that they'd have to caucus amongst people who KNOW their true political inclinations -- and would berate them for their daily forwarding of "Obama is a muslim" emails, and the like.

Cheers!
