Let's assume the Clinton voters do switch....
What would likely happen? They certainly would not vote for John McCain. Just because his name is on the ballot, they would go for that ever popular blank spot....the write-in candidate spot on the ballot.17 Million voters would be the majority block, and Clinton would be the President-elect. We do vote for the person, the party is not part of that vote. Clinton would be elected, and there is nothing the GOP could do about it, except thank Rush Limbaugh for creating the chaos game, which this would result in.And all those 17 Million women voters, would write-in all sorts of new people, as Republicans..who are anything but Republicans.It might be kinda fun to see the new gay Senator from Alabama, and the pro-life Congresswoman from Mississippi.These women could, in effect, take over the entire Republican delegation to Washington, along with most of the Governor's, Attorneys Generals, Assemblies and Senates in every state.Be careful what you right wing media types ask for...you might just get something for it.And it would be completely legal.You see, write-ins do count, and aprty affiliation only matters in primaries, not the general election.Sure the Demzillas are angry, so it the rest of the nation, but if they did switch, not only would all the Dems get elected, the Republicans would find that a conservative was nowhere to be found on Nov 5th.
Hmmm.....LOL

The concept is hilarious.
Think about how easy it would be to take over the GOP and replace all it's appointed and annointed with liberals.
Nothing could be done about it.
The Dems, while losing vote totals, would still be elected....they would just be elected as different parties, which would make no difference at all. It doesn't mean they have to follow party ideology.
Every elected official gets to vote the way they want.
But the chaos plan could really backfire.
I found it an amusing thing to post.
It's not dirty.

Another really effective technique to get John McCain elected and ensure a third Bush term. Great job.
