It didn't take long: Gingrich was on LImbaugh's show Thursday afternoon.
Limbaugh should be the kingmaker if he wants to see a conservative get the nomination. Otherwise, the media will crown the winner, and Republicans will end up with another John McCain.
From my perspective as a liberal, I fear that. If the Republican nominee is a batty tea-party endorsed candidate, Democrats may have a chance in 2012, bad economy notwithstanding. But if they put up someone that can be presented as reasonable, things get a lot tougher for the good guys.
Moreover, if the Republican base is excited by a far-right candidate, Obama may feel it necessary to motivate his own base. Maybe we'd finally see prosecutions on Wall Street, accountability for torture, a return to the rule of law and fewer concessions on tax cuts, drilling, etc.
I love your calls mike. keep it up!!

Mike, your approach and presentation of reality was so appropriate and well-expressed yet all you received was Limbaugh's usual guffaws and brush-off. I believe you stymied this windbag's theatrical verbal trickbag. He was ...speechless!

So Mike Is saying that he encourages a strong conservative candidate, but Rush can't comprehend why. Or at least pretends he can't. Rush cannot admit that progressives are dissatisfied with Obama because that would mean Obama is not as far left as Rush likes to holler he is.
Clearly, the obfuscation is approaching a critical mass.
