Nice to have you, sir, on the EIB Network.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh, hi, Rush. All right. I\u2019m calling about Operation Chaos &#8212; <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yes?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; which so far has been, you know, an incredible success. I don\u2019t need tell you that. I just turned 18, and it was my first election, and I live in Ohio, and, you know, I voted for Clinton to throw off the whole Dems. Basically my question is this. Since it\u2019s been so successful, what do you think&#8230;? How do you think&#8230;? You know, what can we do to prevent the Democrats from trying this, you know, on the Republicans?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: They\u2019ve been doing it! <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: You know, doing their own Operation Chaos in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No, no, no, no! This is a great question. You\u2019re 18?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125113.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"228\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: And so you have some things have happened, you were not old enough to pay close enough attention. Who do you think picked John McCain as the Republican Party nominee? You think Republicans picked him?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I assume more liberal and mainstream Republicans would vote for him.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No, no, no. Do you think Republican primary voters nominated McCain?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Probably more independents.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Uh-huh. And Democrats crossing over in places like New Hampshire, it was Michigan in 2000. The Democrat Party chose our nominee. They didn\u2019t put him over the top, but they gave him the early lead in the early states where there were not a whole lot of he conservative Republicans in these early primary states. The Democrats have been doing this as long as I have been alive and longer. This is balance! This is us playing by their rules. To worry about if they turn it around? They have never been this effective. Well, they have, but they\u2019ve had the whole Drive-By Media urging voters to do this and getting their message out. We are but one show, and we have equaled and surpassed their efforts in the past. Fear not on this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Mike in Warren, Ohio.
