Limbaugh On The Sanford Affair: It's Obama's Fault!

When the "top" of the poll gets 10%, and you grip on to that, well.... It is direct evidence of what I called it. Talking point idiocy. The poll clearly shows exactly what I said, we're in a rebuilding period, and IMO that is good. There is an eternity between now and the elections that will matter, we have time to select solid leadership that will promote what the majority of the party wants.
But you WERE the one that said Rush didn't even make a showing on that poll. He made the top showing, however small that showing might be.
 
Who was talking about Obama as a potential candidate 3 years before the election???

I never heard of the community organizer until he started running for President...But boy, it didn't take long to figure the guy out, and it was scary...
 
I think Rush is spot on as usual. Why shouldn't we (the right) blame every bad thing that happens on Obama? No matter how ridiculous and absurd, let's just make some insane connection to Obama, and blame him for it! This seemed to work well for democrats blaming Bush, so why the fuck not?

Look at BAC's last post... they are still blaming a fucking HURRICANE on Bush!

See Damo?

Ha ha....
 
Dismissive of chances does not a "potential candidate" make. How are yours?

LOL!

That is weak, even for you. After 2004, many in the Democratic party were talking about Obama as a "potential candidate."

Please give up; you really look stupid....
 
Foolishness. I am participating in what is happening in my party, and whether you want to pretend that Rush's 10% in a media poll means he "leads" the party, well, honestly it doesn't really matter, other than to point out spin. Or Palin's 2% means she leads... Please.

Changes come to even the R party, and a return to personal freedoms (responsibility) isn't far from reality. Dems "da" facts, even ones that are shown using the data on what was presented by those who repeat those same talking points.

Nope, I'm not going to tell you about "10%" .. but rather 73%

Among Republicans, however, the balance of opinion about Palin is more positive than it is regarding Romney or other leading GOP figures, Newt Gingrich and Michael Steele. More than seven-in-ten Republicans (73%) express a favorable opinion of Palin while just 17% have an unfavorable opinion. Romney, Gingrich and especially Steele are less familiar figures – among the public overall and Republicans – than is Palin. While comparable percentages of Republicans rate Palin and the other Republicans unfavorably, far more view Palin favorably. And Palin continues to be overwhelmingly popular with key parts of the GOP base – white evangelical Republicans (84% favorable) and conservative Republicans (80% favorable).

Surely you're not going to suggest that it somehow unfair to use the opinions of REPUBLICANS to access who leads their party or who is in position to lead the party.

How about this ...

Among Republicans, it's a different story. The poll suggests that 66 percent of Republicans have a favorable view of Cheney, 64 percent give Powell a thumbs up, and 62 view Limbaugh in a favorable way.

Perhaps you guys can pin your hopes on the coward and traitor Powell .. but the favorability of Palin, Cheney, and Limbaugh within the ever-shrinking Republican Party is UNDENIABLE.

Again, during the Primaries you yourself were dismissive of his chances. Regressive rewriting of memories notwithstanding... Ugh. Nothing looks more stupid than the insistence that a poll that shows 10% mentioned Rush's name makes him "the leader"....

DAMO,

I absolutely dare you to agree with this idiot and claim I blamed the hurricane on Bush.

These are your comrades in arms brother.
 
I don't assume you to be a fool, but to suggest that all there is to big cities is drug dealers, hookers, and traffic seems to me to be a seriously foolish thought.

I enjoy the diversity of people and culture found in big cities and I would not want to raise children or spend my life bored to fucking death in Buttfuck.

I also enjoy watching the Clampetts come to town for vittels.

Never meant to make anyone think that was all there is, sorry about that, what I meant was that stuff is there, it isn't in my home town, I grew up around it, but want my kids to grow up in a better place,so we moved to the country, but yes you are right, I take my kids to the city quite often for all kinds of events

NYC has anything ya could want, the culture there is great, but IMO I would rather drive there to see it then live there

Sorry if I miss led ya

As for the Clampetts, lol, I wonder if ya also enjoy watching the poor in the cities live on the streets eating out of the trash cans, like I said there is no wrong or right here just self preference

When did you become so intellectually dishonest?

Ice Dancer's implication clearly was that Obama came out of nowhere, and no one would have anticipated him as a potential candidate 3 years prior to '08.

That is factually incorrect. Many - especially Dems - were talking about Obama as a candidate after his speech in '04, and you know it. It was precisely because of that reaction that Obama set up an exploratory committee, and he declared his candidacy in no small part because of polling showing popular support.

When I said I didn't think he had much of a shot in the campaign, he was already a CANDIDATE. He wasn't even a "potential candidate" - he was a CANDIDATE.

Please stop acting 12.

Come on Dix, no one blamed the hurricane on bush, just the clusterfuck response by the administration and good ole Brownie.

I'll note that you ignore the poll in question for favorability ratings.

These are the results of the leadership poll. Please note how "high" Palin rates there and how high "no one" rates comparatively to all the people each of you have said was the "leader". There is a reason I say what I do, and it isn't based on something that isn't very real.

Just because people like Palin, it certainly doesn't make her the "leader".

Please also note how Romney's favorability also does not make him "the voice". Neither Romney or Palin are seen by republicans as "the voice" of the party.

No problem my brother and I'm glad I didn't assume you a fool.

The dynamic has grown into metropolitan areas, like Atlanta, where one could have the best of both worlds and easily drive into the cities from a more rural setting.

Additionally statistics have shown that living rural does not necessarliy mean living drug, hooker, or problem free. I don't know where you live, but I'm betting that even if you don't see it, drugs and their issues are resident in your community.

I've never believed in trying to escape the world, although I recognize and respect your desire to find safe haven for your family. I grew up in urban environments and have always lived in them no matter what city I was in. I've never been robbed, nor has my wife or any of our children, few of our friends and family.

I find urban life realtively safe and exciting because I know how to be safe .. which does not imply living afraid.

However, as I've said, I respect your perspective.
 
After his speech at the '04 convention?

Basically everyone. But no one beyond that...

BS! Everyone right up to when he threw his hat in the ring were talking the same old dems as before...The news at that time was; Who is Barack Obama? He was a total surprise and as such was not expected to win.
