Tweety keeps talking about it. "Operation Chaos" was even mentioned by MSNBC's panel. What's going on? :shrug:

1. Repukes voting in OUR Primaries is called Vote Fraud
They should all be thrown in the slammer and left there to rot until after November.

3. seems they finally caught on
I was aware in TX and Ohio (I live in TX and am forced to listen to right wing radio). I wish MSNBC would quit going to Joe and Pat Pukanan for opinions on Democrats. And yes, I'm furious about Operation Chaos

4. Anyon involved in "Operation Chaos" is just ignorant to what...
they are doing. Do those that vote for Clinton really believe that McCain will win this election? They are going to be upset if Clinton wins the nomination and then the one person they hate beats their candidate, maybe then they will realize that rush is just a part of the overall problem and probably has another agenda.

7. Norah O'Donnell just said that 58% of Repugs voting in IN believe Obama will be tougher to beat.
I hope the SDs heard that. :-)

10. Limbaugh effect shows in Indiana but
not as much in Ohio or Texas
I type so slowly that I might be repeating what was already noted but:
They are talking about the question of who you would vote for in November.
Obama vs McCain 19% said they'd vote for McCain.
Clinton vs McCain 17% said they'd vote for McCain.
Not a big difference.

The big difference is
Obama vs McCain of the 19% who said they'd vote for McCain their vote today was 87%C and 12% O

Clinton vs McCain of the 17% who said they'd vote for McCain their vote today was 41%C and 58% O
That is a big difference.
41% that would vote McCain against Clinton voted Clinton
12% that would vote McCain against Obama voted Obama

On the shared values there are clues.
Does Obama Share Your Values? (33%) 7% still voted for Obama.
Does Clinton Share Your Values? No (36%) 20% still voted for Clinton
Triple number of people who don't share values with their candidate were people
(Clinton also got 75% of the "neither" shares value vote)

Is Clinton Honest and Trustworthy
No(45%) but
26% voted Clinton
Is Obama Honest and Trustworthy?
No (33%) and 12% voted Obama.
Neither (14%) Clinton wins with 75%

Most Likely to Win in November
Clinton (47%) and 6% of these voted Obama
Obama (50%) but 12% of these voted Clinton

That is not as bad as Texas and Ohio where about 18% who said Obama had best chance voted Clinton

Still Limbaugh has reason to be proud.
