Schneider: Did 'Operation Chaos' succeed in Indiana?
Posted: 05:38 AM ET


 
Limbaugh’s ‘Operation Chaos’ plan was to have republican voters temporarily cross over to vote in the Democratic primary for Hillary Clinton.
(CNN) – How big of an impact did Rush Limbaugh’s ‘Operation Chaos’ have in Indiana? Did GOP voters really cross over to create havoc in the Democratic primary by voting for Hillary Clinton, as he’d asked his listeners to do?

Roughly one in ten of the state’s Democratic primary voters were Republican — and that group did vote for Hillary Clinton, 53 to 47 percent over Barack Obama. But hold on: registered Democrats, who made up two-thirds of Tuesday’s primary voters, gave roughly the same edge to Clinton, 53 to 45 percent. Only Independents — who made up about a quarter of the electorate — voted for Obama, 53 to 47 percent.

For whatever reason, self-identified conservative voters did overwhelmingly support Clinton – two out of three cast their votes for the New York senator.

It reassuring to know that Rush Limbaugh has no effect whatsoever on who gets into the White House.  In my opinion, his days are numbered.  His base is shrinking every day.

And yet, all the pundits seem to be saying that the Limbaugh "lift" was just enough to give her the lift in Indiana last night.  Imagine if those people weren't participating, would the race have been over weeks ago?
