Unless, of course, it comes to its senses quick and elects Mitt Romney the next president. Short of that, Rush would rather elect a Dumbocrat than a phony Republican. Why? Via the
Washington Post:
"If I believe the country will suffer with either Hillary, Obama or McCain, I would just as soon the Democrats take the hit... rather than a Republican causing the debacle," he said. "And I would prefer not to have conservative Republicans in the Congress paralyzed by having to support, our party loyalty, a Republican president who is not conservative."
Note to Mr. Limbaugh: A Republican
already has caused "the debacle." We
already are suffering the effects of a failed presidency that has been enabled by conservative Congressional Republicans. But like
82% of Mitt Romney's supporters, Rush just refuses to see what more than
60% of all Americans believe.
The other aspect of Limbaugh's rhetoric which is so striking is that he'd rather the country suffer as much as possible over the next four or eight years so that a new crop of conservatives will benefit later. Hooray for the American spirit!

Our New Approach to Comments
In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers –
a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around.
