10. It didn't fail. They plan to vote for McCain in Nov. So apparently they
did vote to create mischief.

2. They don't want Obama to beat Hillary
because they want her to lose in the GE to a REPUBLICAN. For them that is much sweeter victory.

5. Most Republicans think Obama can beat McCain. Which is why most Repubs voted 4 Hillary.

7. Let Me Guess
The 46% of Republicans who voted for Obama were sincere, while the rest were Operation Chaos, right?

8. Tells me a lot of Republicans lied to the exit pollsters
Edited on Tue May-06-08 07:49 PM by democrat2thecore
They're not going to go in causing mischief (voting for Clinton because Rush said to) and then step outside and tell the exit pollster that's what they did. If you want to create chaos, you go in and vote for Clinton and walk outside and tell a pollster they voted for Obama. An "after the fact" Bradley effect.

Point: They aren't going to admit to their mischief. Hence, a higher total for Obama than one would expect. I can't believe the pundits on the TV haven't realized this.

15. I don't think they're smart enough to think it through like that
Seriously. Rush only told them to vote for Clinton, not to be all sly about lying about it. Rush says jump, they jump. Like good little lemmings.

14. Why d'ya think Republicans are doing all they can to grease Hillary's way to the nom?
Because she'll LOSE. She IS the weaker candidate. They've SAID so. That's why Limpballs wanted them to support her!
