Hillary Has Bad Day, Despite Getting GOP Votes
Mainstream media finally admits importance of Operation Chaos.

Hillary suffered a significant loss in the larger state North Carolina while the Indiana race is practically a tie. A CNN article reports “Sen. Barack Obama claimed victory in North Carolina on Tuesday, but the contest in Indiana was too close to call.” At the start of the day, Obama had 1748 delegates with Hillary trailing by 134. As of right now, one website notes the count is 1842 for Obama with Hillary trailing by 150 delegates. (It will take a day or two for all the pledged delegates to announce.)
Significantly, CNN has recognized the efforts of Rush Limbaugh. The GOP nomination was effectively decided in early February. The Republicans have had nothing to do since then so Rush Limbaugh has ordered his “ditto-heads” to go out and vote for the worse Democrat, Hillary. A different CNN article notes “How big of an impact did Rush Limbaugh’s ‘Operation Chaos’ have in Indiana? Did GOP voters really cross over to create havoc in the Democratic primary by voting for Hillary Clinton, as he’d asked his listeners to do? Roughly one in ten of the state’s Democratic primary voters were Republican… For whatever reason, self-identified conservative voters did overwhelmingly support Clinton – two out of three cast their votes for the New York senator.”
So if we subtract out the “Limbaugh voters,” Hillary would have lost North Carolina by an even bigger margin, and the near-tie in Indiana would become a decisive win for Obama. None of this should come as a surprise. Obama beat Hillary in eleven elections in a row –before “Operation Chaos” began. And most of those victories were landslides. (more…)
