Radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh says neither Barack Obama nor Hillary Clinton can become the Democratic presidential nominee by means of getting enough votes, and claims it's because of his "Operation Chaos" to have Republican voters switch parties and disturb the primary process.

"Whoever is the nominee did not win it," Limbaugh said today during his post-Pennsylvania primary analysis. "This is what everybody is missing."

"Obama cannot win this by winning the primary process. He has to rely on unelected superdelegates just as she must. Both of these candidates need unelected superdelegates to be the nominee. Were it not for Operation Chaos, Obama could win this by winning the primary process. But he can't now. Nor can she. So, unelected party hacks ... are gonna choose the nominee. All the people that have voted in these primaries up to now will not be a factor."

For months now, Limbaugh, the most listened-to radio voice in America, has been encouraging voters to temporarily switch their political affiliation to the Democratic Party and vote for Hillary Clinton. The idea is not necessarily to make the New York senator the nominee, but simply to wreak havoc in the party.

"The nominee will have been delivered by party hacks, unelected superdelegates," Limbaugh said, "and that is a dream come true for Operation Chaos."

Limbaugh, describing himself as the commander in chief of the operation, suggested there's a way for Obama to end the ongoing process and secure the nomination, and that's to quickly acknowledge the impact of the radio strategy.

"What Obama has to do is go out and say this [Hillary] win is artificial and this win is phony because of Operation Chaos. He needs to go out there and say, 'Why in the world is everybody taking this seriously? Rush Limbaugh had his listeners register as Democrats for one day to go vote for Hillary to prolong this. We're letting Limbaugh get away with making our party look like it's in a total sewer and a mess. This victory in Pennsylvania is illegitimate, is undeserved because Democrats did not vote for her. Republicans did.'"

Gotta love it

Careful Rush, when the Republican rushbots wake up and realize that they only have McCain to vote for and depression sets in and the drinks are not stiff enough.............? Who helped set the stage?

Why were you so quiet before and during the Florida primaries, oh great maharashi? "Hey its you folks who get to pick your canidates. I'm just a lovable little fuzzball."

Will Rush proclaim, "Operation Choas and my rushbots swept McCain to the Whitehouse?"

Rush do you have a strong enough leash to hold onto that puppy? Perhaps a muzzle is in order? Perhaps two?

Rush was never a McCain supporter, in fact he detested McCain's politics and daily attacked him on his radio show throughout all the primaries.

He's suscribed to the theorem that McCain is the lesser of the three evils.

zeezil, who did Rush support?

Rush made it clear during the early primaries, and was very careful not to endorse or to offend the many Republican canidates or their supporters. Truth be told Rush did not want to allienate any of his audience. He does run a business. Business comes first. Tensions were high and support was varied amongst his listeners and their respective canidates.

Now Rush wants to play politics, when the field is safe? Intellectual honesty does not vote for the other team. Itellectual honesty states that if the Republican base is too stupid or inept to pick a good canidate, then tough, you get what you deserve. Intellectual honesty looks for a true conservitive, and roasts the others, from the begining of the process. Rush played safe until the stage was set. Watch as McCain becomes the darling. Rush can blame the crossover voters in Florida or throw the blame to the Republican voters who endorsed McCain. Rush is safe and it has nothing to do with intellectual honesty. Operation Chaos is morally bankrupt.

From chaos comes order?

Rush supported Romney, although I don't believe he "oficially" stated it.

Rush may get his wish. I think Romney is a strong choice for veep for McCain.

I like neither.

Since when did Romney become a conservitive?

A great day in the Hoosier state! The sun is shining, bright skys, great temps, spring is beautiful!

On the Republican ballot,

John McCain

Mike Huckabee

Ron Paul

Mitt Romney


Hey Rush, I voted on the Republican side, take Operation Chaos somewhere else!

I voted and it was great, an easy decision.


Sorry John, it was not for you! Not directly, nor by default! My vote counted!
