Rush (and other radio hosts) where encouraging people in Ohio and Texas to vote for Hillary. His theory is that as long as Hillary and Obama are throwing mud at each other the long McCain can take the high road and stay out of it. I'm a Republican from Ohio. When I voted I was given a Republican ballot without asking (at some point in the past I must have declared that). I know several Republicans that asked specifically for a Democratic ballot and voted for Hillary to do exactly what Rush had explained.
Hillary won by a wide margin in Ohio so I doubt the cross over voting played a role in the outcome but I'm sure it was enough to throw a few delegates her way.
Personally I'd rather stay on my side of the fence and watch the other side duke it out....
From a press release from the Aplastic Anemia & MDS Foundation:
"The President yesterday signed into law a bill to authorize $79 million to establish a new national registry of 150,000 umbilical cord blood units. The "Stem Cell Therapeutic and Research Act" was approved by the Senate on December 16 and had already passed the House of Representatives last May."
