Limbaugh said today that Democrats were responsible for McCain winning the GOP nomination
Said the crossover vote of Democrats was responsible for McCain winning in the GOP primary. A caller, a Democrat from Indiana, asked whether he was concerned that his operation chaos was a form of voter/election fraud. Limbaugh said essentially, "If they can do it we can do it..."

:crazy:

And, btw, all the ills in the world are caused by too many liberals, and if more people were educated, only 10% of the US population would choose to be liberals.

:puke:

and voted for McCain.

3. Why would any Dem vote on the Puke ticket with the tight race on the Dem side?
Makes no sense?

11. During the Repub Florida primary
Rush went nuts with some long drawn out rant about Huckabee collaborating with McCain to beat Romney --

He said, if McCain wins the nomination, “It’s going to destroy the Republican Party!!"

:rofl:

All the right wing nut bags hate(d) McCain -- and now they find themselves in the position of having to defend McCain. Lol.

4. Right. Democrats would rather vote for McCain, who was blowing away the competition, ...
... than their own Dem candidate who is involved in a close election.

Limbaugh is an idiot.

5. Funny, I thought people who were educated
tended to be liberals--and I mean all kinds of education, especially the College of Hard Knocks.

7. If I was in the GOP primaries doing a Democratic Operation Chaos,
I'd be probably voting for Huckabee in the later stages, earlier stages, I'd be voting for Tom Tancredo. He's so completely batshit insane he'd be lucky to score in the double digits in November.

9. Randi is talking about this right now
She is saying that Operation Chaos is just a cover up by Limbaugh of all the Republicans that are defecting to the Democratic Party because they are disgusted with what has happened the past 7 years. She is reading articles with interviews from Republicans about their reasons for crossing over

10. I have 3 Repubs in my family who changed party affiliation to vote for Obama
Edited on Tue May-06-08 02:55 PM by Emit
and they are intent on staying registered as Dems to support Obama if he gets the nomination -- not so much if Hillary wins, however -- they've all told me they will change their party affiliation to Non-Partisan if she wins the nomination. I'm assuming they'll all hold their noses and vote for HRC in the GE if she wins the nom, as I know none will vote for McCain.

I also have a Repub BIL who will vote for Obama in the GE. If HRC wins the Dem nom, he will vote McCain.

edited clarity
