Report: Rush Limbaugh Dittoheads to Vote for Hillary Clinton in Indiana

Non-Democrats Will Decide Indiana

More from the Howey-Gauge poll in Indiana: "The Democratic primary is going to be decided by non-Democrats. To be determined is which group -- Republicans or independents -- are going to decide this race."

The poll shows that self-identified Republicans favor Sen. Hillary Clinton, 50% to 44%, while independents favor Sen. Barack Obama, 54% to 38%.

Among Republicans, there "appears to be two kinds of Republicans: the 'Obamacans' as the Illinois senator likes to call them -- earnest Republicans deeply disappointed in their own party's performance on the budget, economy, social issues and the Iraq War -- and the Rush Limbaugh Republicans who are planning to crossover to vote for Sen. Clinton because they perceive her to be the weakest rival to U.S. Sen. John McCain in the November election."

6. Yes, and it's a felony to lie about your party.
This was pointed out yesterday on Rush's show and Rush specifically said, don't worry that it's a felony, do it anyway and I'll take the heat. He said it's okay because the act is impossible to prove.

3. Hell, most of the HRC boosters *HERE* are now proud "Dittoheads," as witness their breathless,
gushing reports on what Limbaugh & Hannity are saying on their Hate Radio programs day after day. They love to rebroadcast their anti-Obama rants here, and when called on it hiss like scalded cats that they're just reporting what "the enemy" is saying... ( :eyes: )

How was he able to determine Rush voters vs Obamacans without any question regarding perception of the candidate or if they listen to Rush etc.

9. Most Obama supporters didn't have a problem with it in NV, in fact they encouraged it.

10. Go Hill! You can do it.

A vote is a vote is a vote. And if she wins the popular vote, the SD's should make her the nominee.

Has she called Limbaugh on this?

11. Think Now. The first few months when Obama was getting all
these Republicans, some of us made the same comment--The GOP
and Independents are deciding our results.

Turn about is fair play.

Apparently you can vote whatever party you want.

I suddenly realize why she's on O'Reiley this week.
