    Poll watchers throughout Ohio are noting large numbers of Republican voters crossing over to vote in the Democratic Primary between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

    In the Republican roost of Chagrin Falls, veteran poll worker Liz McFadden was amazed at the number of people jumping the party's ship. Democrats accounted for 70 percent of the voters in her precinct, one of seven at the village's high school.

    "That's a complete reversal of what it normally is, even more so," she said. "I've never seen a switch like this."


    The defectors had motives both pure and sinister.

    One woman voted for Clinton in hopes of delivering John McCain a weaker debate opponent. Another picked Obama because her vote could help deny Clinton and her husband a return trip to the White House.

    Ohio Republicans, like Texas Republicans could put the final nail on the Clintonista coffin, but many are ing around with Lush and Innsanity, who long ago sold their souls to the Neocons, keeping the Demo 'war candidate' in the race...disgusting....

    It's hilarious that they can't even agree on a way to sabotage the Democrats.

    Good Republicans would go for the kill - but they got the pro-war shills begging them to keep Hillary in the race...

    Hey, you wanted Texas Republicans to cross over and vote in the Demo primary.

    "Good" Republicans vote in the Republican primary and don't follow some nut on the internets.

    Hillary Clinton's Monstrously Blind Demolition
    THE FIFTH COLUMNIST by P.M. Carpenter


    Hardcore Republicans are now her biggest supporters, her most devoted boosters. Echoing the likes of predatory opportunists such as Rush Limbaugh and Pat Buchanan, Karl Rove also spoke Sunday on Fox for the right-wing "You-go-girl" crowd: "I think it's a mistake for campaign to be calling for her to drop out," he said, with laughably feigned indifference. "It’s up to the delegates at the convention to decide who wins and loses." Them, and snickering GOP strategists, I guess.

    Naturally the GOP understands as well as objective Democratic strategists that Hillary's odds of success now stand at near absolute zero. Numbers are numbers, and they're furiously stubborn. You can move them around, shift them sideways and yank them up and down, but they'll still total what they total. God didn't play dice with universal mathematics, and He hasn't exempted Hillary's crunchers.

    She's lost. And today is but a manic exercise in party demolition. Mrs. Clinton may indeed still score some victories, but if so they'll remain far short of the needed "extraordinary percentages" to shift the balance of overwhelming power and momentum that is Obama's. It was over yesterday, is over this morning, and will be just as over on the morning of March 5.


    All Mrs. Clinton can accomplish now is the brutal strafing of party resources and desperately needed unity. That, and the provisioning of John McCain with the best of both worlds: providing him the resources he otherwise lacks to effectively diminish in the electorate's mind the Democratic Party's all-but-officially nominated nominee. Some might say, Well, that's a Democrat for you, always self-serving. But in this case, there's no longer any self or cause to realistically serve. It's just monstrously blind demolition. True, the theater of it all may be enjoyable, but its ultimate consequence might not be

    Ohio is stuck in the 1970s, if that. The electorate seems to yearn for that which once was, so it's not surprising that she will do well there.

    Dan, you think this only happened in Ohio and Texas. Brit Hume,
    on Fox News, said Va folks crossed over and voted for Obama.

    In the General I think the dimms are going to be in for a shock
    when they see much of the votes disappear on the dimm side and
    McCain suddenly see more than all the experts predicted.

    Politics is a dirty game, yes indeed. Dirty.
