37. Yes, they think the audience can't tell who they are for...
randy thinks that she is hiding it but she made a comment the other day saying she was for Obama, then right after it she said I am not going to side with say who I am for not realizing she had admitted it.I listen very closely to them all and they try to pretend you can also tell by some of their guests and the questions. I haven't heard anything yet that says anything negative against Obama but,it is beat up Hillary all day and all night.

40. I'll say it: Randi and Rachel are lying scum.
They have their loyalties with Obama and them tell us that they are neutral.

2. YEP.
Edited on Thu Feb-07-08 02:49 PM by DJ13
Rush said something about he believes the only Democrat someone like McCain can beat is Hillary, so he is planning on holding a Hillary fundraiser to help her against Obama.

Edit: I forgot to add he's already come up with a fundraising slogan-
"Keep Her In So The Repubs Can Win"

3. Hillary is the only phenomenon that can unite them
Although, hearing Ann Coulter and Glenn Beck say that they would vote for HER and not McCain even gives me some doubts about that. But if there is anything that can unite the Right it's her. I'd rather not chance it, and I really am not up for the "Clinton Wars II" either.

Edited on Thu Feb-07-08 03:09 PM by Skwmom
see Coulter and the gang change their tune to "we must unite behind McCain and save the country from Clinton."

5. Funny, when he was asking GOP-ers in SC to vote Obama no one paid attention
in spite of evidence that GOP districts like Dorchester had a higher turnout during our primaries than their own...

7. they'll be trying to help her win in the primaries, too
You can bet they will be sending crossovers to help Hillary try to win the nomination, and that is part of the scheme of getting the Puke race over with early. They are the party of dirty tricks, so they'll try to help Hillary, since they might be able to beat her, and they'll get their butts kicked by Obama.

18. True. McCain v. Clinton = safe for the beltway wonks
safe for the forces of evil, too

Yeah, there's the Supreme court, and that matters, but beyond that, not much difference if you really value Democratic ideals.

24. It is part of their master plan: they have to have Hillary to run against
She fixes the problem they have, which is mobilizing enough voters and contributors.

They WILL try to skew the remaining Democratic primaries and caucuses, because they play dirty, and this is who they are.

11. Only one candidate will galvanize Republicans...
...and that candidate is Hillary Clinton.

They'll come out in droves to vote against her. Having Hillary on the
Dem ticket will ensure a high Republican turnout.

Obama will not have the same effect. He picks up Independents, in ways
that Hillary never has, and even some disenfranchised Republicans, which
Hillary never will.

Sad, but true.

We need Obama as our nominee.

12. There are two ways to view this.
I heard a report that Limbaugh cynically wishes to let Dems
win. They will have all Bush's Mess and a recession and God
knows what else. They believe that the Conservatives could
constantly rant against Obama or Clinton. They believe the
Dems would fail. This could bring back a GOP Congress in 2010
and a GOP President in 2012. These are the activisits and
some of their thinking. The Talkers see this as increasing
their audience. Also if things go bad under Democrats, GWB's
Messes are forgottne and Dems get the blame. I do not agree
with this, but it is out there.

Another way to look at it. GOP is doing Brer Rabbit. Pretending
they want something they do not.

I say Let them send all the money they wish. Hilary can win.

15. Limbaugh and Coulter know their careers are shot without Clinton in the Whitehouse
How many millions of words were screeded by the likes of these 2 right-wing whack jobs and dozens of wannabes out there. If Hillary doesn't win then 20 years of bashing the Clintons will cease to exist and there goes their career.

19. Rush Limbaugh...

...prays every night that Hillary is the dem choice for President.

She will raise the corpse of the rethug party from its grave like zombies to inflict more wars and destruction on ourselves and our children.

Obama they fear like a light going on in a dark room. They want to scuttle like cockroaches back into the safety of the darkness and re-fight the Clinton Wars of the 90's, their glory days.

23. Just like Rove said he wanted to run against Hillary, child psychology.
They think Dems will vote the opposite of what they say, but Dems aren't as dumb as Repukes.

Limp listeners have such limp intelligence, from years of his garbage, he will probably unintentionally get Hillary a million or so before he changes his strategy.

25. CNN had aired a short clip
of Limbaugh saying that to his audience.

And it is of course based on the idea that the Repubs hate anything Clinton. So much so that they would rather have McCain any day regardless of their dislike for him. Also a lot of people know that us Dems who dislike Hillary, dislike her because we see her for what she is - a corporate Dem, a Republican light. And they know that many of us will refuse to vote for the corporate war Dem who's more a Republican light.

His daily hate fest against McCain failed miserably.
