Indeed, forcing the Clintons to spend is the right approach. But rope a dope is base on coming off the ropes at the right point and scoring a KO. When is that going to happen?</p> What worries me about Barack is his seeming rope a dope strategy, his campaign points out the stats and wants to let the Clintons punch their way out of money.

So far as I know, no figures have been compiled in PA as to how many did this, but apparently the number was substantial, and apparently it is available if someone takes the trouble to root it out. I do not understand why Obama does not speak to this because it goes to the heart of our democracy. You either believe in democracy or you don’t and if you do, everyone is entitled to their vote and to have it counted correctly. To manipulate the process is to destroy it. I think Hillary, like Lieberman, won because of the Repubs. It says a lot about Democrats who tolerate this behavior without protest and it says a lot about Republicans who participate in the process.</p> Rush limbaugh, a piece of excrement if there ever was one, promotes what he calls Operation Chaos in which Repubs are encouraged to switch parties in order to vote for Hillary.

I think the GOP wants Hillary to win because they believe they can beat her. Any thoughts on this?</p> Ok, am I the only one who is thinking the republican party is scared to death of Obama, it seems every day, I hear another GOP pundit or party official talking about sending out republicans to vote for Hillary and now I just heard that the NC GOP is going to be putting out an add attacking Obama as well.
