Republican Crossovers: Mods for Obama, Wingers for Clinton? |
|
This is too explosive to leave alone.
Are the wingers really willing to take Hillary over Mc Cain? Or are they just trying to lull Democrats into putting Hillary on the ticket in the belief that Clinton is vulnerable?
If it is true that The wingers prefer Clinton over Mc Cain, what does this portray to us Democrats, when the moderate Republicans are leaving their party indroves for Obama?
Who would be willing to accept a Coulter/Limbaugh/Beck drive to influence our primaries for any candidate? Who here would be willing to accept a Democratic President who won with the backing of such a troika of anti-democratic ideals?
Let's here it.

3. Reagan was elected with help from cross-over Democrats |
|
If they follow through with their threats and vote for the Democratic nominee, I'll take it. I'm tired of the rethugs running things in this country. They had their chance, they didn't get shit done, now everyone can see what a bunch of hot air they've been blowing.

4. I suspect it's like this: |
|
Republican party loyalists think Hillary is beatable by McCain, so they promote her in our primary to help McCain become president.
But many moderate Republican voters are willing to cross party lines in November for Obama.
As for Coulter, Limbaugh and Beck...fuck 'em. Their days are done.

5. Coulter, Limbaugh and the likes make their living off of bitching about Democrats |
|
They both became famous bitching about Clinton, I do believe.
What do you think is in their best financial and career interest?
They also want to scare Republicans from backing McCain, because they hate him. Threatening to vote for a Clinton is the ultimate threat.
That said, Obama is the one that is really attracting Republican voters, because his policies aren't liberal. Some also want to face him in November.
