It didn't? Did Democrats vote for McCain there?

Sure they did. Democrats were urged to vote for McCain by several democrat political hacks.

Hmmm... That is a totally, totally different situation. I do consider Lieberman sleazy, but if he really believes that people should vote McCain, then he's more than free to say so. Of course, I'm more than free to not support him when he runs for reelection.

I see no difference between Rush asking republicans to vote for Hillary and democrats asking democrats to vote for McCain. Unless we want to discuss legality by defining motive as the measurement of legality.

Have you signed a loyalty pledge to the democrat party?
Huh?


It's the root cause of the Ohio charges against republicans voting for a democrat.

One article of many:
huffingtonpost.com

newstin.co.uk

In Ohio, when you register to vote democrat, you swear under, penalty of law, allegiance to the democratic party. Seems to me you would also be in trouble if you vote for McCain in November. Or does the loyalty oath only apply to the primary?

The source of my democrat politburo jokes, did you have to sign a party pledge in New York comrade?

I notice Virginia had similar problems recently.

"Huh?"

In Ohio, if you switch parties before an election you have to sigh an oath that you are doing it because you genuinely support that candidate. Silly law. How you do prove it? Unless, of course, you are dumb enough to wear your Operation Chaos cap and t-shirt. Which, I can imagine harris doing...

Harris just likes to pretend that it is a Democratic only thing. he is wrong, but he doesn't let that stop him.
