What should shut up Chris McDaniel about complaining of Democrats voting is asking if he agrees with Rushs Operation Chaos where Rush told his followers to Rush the vote in the 2008 Democratic primary. McDaniel will not cross Rush: rushlimbaugh/daily/2008/03/12/rush_the_vote_operation_chaos Rush the Vote: Operation Chaos March 12, 2008 BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Operation Chaos. What did that black website name this yesterday? Im having a mental block. The Rush Vote. Listen to this. This is from somebody by the name of John K. Wilson at the Huffington Post today. Headline: Mississippi, Limbaugh Effect Softens Blow for Hillary Clinton -- Hillary Clinton suffered a huge defeat last night in Mississippi, and now faces an insurmountable pledged delegate lead by Barack Obama. But what most pundits missed was the fact that Obamas victory would have been even more overwhelming in Mississippi (and he might have won the popular vote in Texas) if not for the Limbaugh Effect: Republicans voting in the Democratic primary in order to undermine Barack Obama and help John McCain. ... In the voting during January and February, Republicans were an average of 3.8% of the voters in the Democratic Primary, and they heavily supported Obama. But for the primaries in March, in Texas, Ohio, and Mississippi, Republicans have been 8% of the voters in the Democratic primary, and now they heavily support Hillary Clinton. This is definite proof of the Limbaugh Effect coming through. Then you go to the last paragraph. Rarely in American politics have so many people ever intentionally voted for a candidate they hate so much. Approximately 40,000 Republicans in Mississippi decided to vote for Hillary Clinton in order to help her destroy the Democratic Party this year with a divided convention. Hillary Clintons big wins in March failed to help her close the delegate gap, and she cannot possibly win the pledged delegate race against Obama. The only hope for Hillary Clinton is that Republican voters will help her reduce the gap against Obama, and that the superdelegates will somehow be convinced to obey the will of Rush Limbaugh and his acolytes by stealing the election from the legitimate voters. BREAK TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Operation Chaos working: Democrat Senator Barack Obama assailed as slice-and-dice politics, Geraldine Ferraros assertion that he wouldnt be where he is in the presidential race if he werent black. On the Today Show today, Obama said, Part of what I think Ferraro is doing -- I respect the fact that she was a trailblazer -- is to participate in the kind of slice-and-dice politics thats about race and about gender and about this and about that, and thats what Americans are tired of because they recognize that when we divide ourselves in that way we cant have hope and solve problems. So Obama wants her thrown under the bus. Obama wants the Clintons to throw Ferraro under the bus. Clinton did say she didnt like the comments, but Ferraro is still there defending herself. Note: All of the race, all the gender comments are on the Democrat side in this race. The Uncivil War has been going on a long time, and I dont think... You know, Ferraro may have gone out there as an independent contractor and made these comments, but weve known for a long time that the Clintons and their quest for power -- the kind that Spitzer just had to give up -- theyll do anything to get it, folks. Theyll put up with any humiliation, theyll do whatever it takes to get it. They cant say as much themselves, but if they can send surrogates out to plant these seeds? We know that the Clintons have injected race happily starting in the South Carolina primary. Floridas congressional delegation said Tuesday it opposes holding a Democrat presidential vote by mail, and Barack Obama expressed concerns about the fairness of that option. Chaos, folks! Operation Chaos, Rush the Vote, is working. Theyre worried about ballot security in Florida. Thats wise. You start sending out mail ballots with the Clintons involved in the election? Obama is smart to suggest that this mail-in thing isnt right; it isnt going to work. He was around. He saw what happened in the aftermath of Florida in 2000. More chaos facing a revived Hillary Clinton... and why is that? ... facing a revived Hillary Rodham Clinton, Democrat Barack Obama has dropped a tenet of his early strategy that seemed vital to his January successes: the conviction that he can win almost anywhere if he has enough time to engage voters. With the important Pennsylvania contest six weeks away -- a near eternity in presidential primaries -- Obama is playing down his chances here, even though a victory would effectively finish Clinton. His aides are emphasizing instead the need to campaign in North Carolina, Indiana and other presumably friendlier states that will vote even later. ... Obamas revised strategy is, essentially, a mathematical calculation. If Clinton wins a few more delegates than he does in Pennsylvania, Obama figures, he can offset them in the nine states and territories scheduled to vote later. The Obama swagger is gone! Rush the Vote: Operation Chaos. It continues. Curious whether Barack Obama or Hillary Rodham Clinton won Texas Democratic caucuses March 4th? So is everybody else. The official results wont be available until March 29th. Until then, the last reported results -- from 41 percent of the precinct caucuses -- show Obama ahead with 56 percent to Clintons 44 percent. ... The state Democratic Party gave up Monday on its effort to produce a running public tally of the count. The state party had set up a reporting system, outside the official count, that relied on 8,247 precinct chairmen to voluntarily call their results to 254... These people are nuts! 8,247 precinct chairmen to voluntarily call their results to 254 county chairmen who would relay them to state party headquarters? Remember, these are the people that want to run your health care. These are the people that want to determine where you shop. These are the people that want to determine the kind of lightbulbs you can have in your house, the kind of TVs. They cant even count their own votes in Texas! An estimated one million Democrats, far more than ever before, showed up for the caucuses which were held right after the voting ended in the first part of the Democrat contest. The huge turnout played havoc with the caucuses. (laughing) Chaos, Rush the Vote. Chaos in Texas. Chaos in Pennsylvania. Chaos in the Clinton campaign. Chaos in the Obama campaign. More chaos! Hillary Clinton has challenged Obama on his record on energy policy, prompting Obamas campaign to counter that it was Clinton who voted against improvements in automobile fuel economy and promoting renewable fuels. More chaos! Rush the Vote, in the Democrat Party. So its working, ladies and gentlemen. Now, heres the bottom line of all this, at least in Missssippi. Obama extended his lead in delegates and popular votes. After all is said and done, that happened. Hes got an insurmountable lead in delegates now, in pledged delegates. She cannot overtake him. Well, shed have to get 80% of the vote in every remaining state. (laughing) Yeah, with the Clintons (laughter), its possible. (interruption) Saddam did it, thats true. Saddam and Fidel, they both managed to get 93, 94% of the vote. So thats something we need to hold out as a possibility. We are talking about the Clintons. But where we are right now, after Missssippi last night, Obama has extended his lead in delegates and in popular votes. Hes like 700,000 popular votes ahead of her. This is all the more reason, ladies and gentlemen, for Mrs. Clinton to accept him as her vice president. Make that accept him for consideration. This guy, he continues to mount up these delegates; he continues to lead in the popular vote. Mrs. Clinton said, This guys got something here that we ought to look at. This guys actually number one. I think hed be a perfect number two, my number two. At least hes good for consideration, here. By August, maybe hell be weaned enough to handle foreign policy. Maybe she should name her secretary of state soon, you know, just to assure everybody whats going to happen. I got a little bit of a different spin on the Pennsylvania primary. I dont think its about who gets the nomination; its about whether Obama gets to name the vice president of his choice or will be forced to add her to the ticket. I think thats where this is headed. Will he be allowed to pick his own vice president, or will he be forced to put her on the ticket? Obamas got the delegates, he has the popular votes, but the superdelegates are being bribed with Bill Clintons dream ticket scheme. If she wins big in Pennsylvania -- and Obama is setting that up -- the argument could work and she could get the veep gig. If he wins in Pennsylvania, he gets the luxury of every white candidate, and that would be to name his own vice president. So, here are the numbers. The popular vote. By winning almost 100,000 votes in Mississippi yesterday, Obama increased his popular vote lead over Clinton to approximately 700,000 votes. Now, even if you include Florida and Michigan, Obama leads the popular vote. So, as Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Clinton look at this, this guy is certainly, after last night, even more qualified to be vice president on her ticket. END TRANSCRIPT
