Anyone following Rush Limbaugh's ongoing efforts to pit Obama and Hillary in a deathmatch by keeping her in the race? Do you think it's working? Has anyone participated? What do you dems think?
For those who don't know:
In late February 2008, Limbaugh developed Operation Chaos, a political call to action with the initial plan to have voters of the Republican Party temporarily cross over to vote Democrat and vote for Hillary Clinton, who at the time was in the midst of losing eleven straight primary contests to Barack Obama. The goal was to have the campaigns of Clinton and Obama fight over the Democratic Party nomination for as long as possible and potentially force a brokered 2008 Democratic National Convention.
On March 27, 2008, Limbaugh said that "at this point, the purpose of Operation Chaos is not to choose a specific nominee, and it wasn't from the get-go to pick a specific nominee. The purpose of Operation Chaos is what you see. It was to keep the race going so that there would be hatred, animosity, and political bloodletting between Hillary and Barack Obama and their forces."
