LIMBAUGH SAYS HE'LL FUNDRAISE FOR HILLARY

Pills Limbaugh wants Hillary to get the nomination very much.....


Limbaugh Says He'll Fundraise For Hillary


Rush Limbaugh is ready to do his part for the GOP by putting on his own fundraiser. Even if that fundraiser is for the only politician that he believes can unite the party -- Hillary Clinton.

"But the reason for raising money for Hillary is because that apparently my party is relying on fear and loathing of Hillary to get the nomination, to unite Republicans, who are, some of them, off the reservation. The Republicans do not seem to be relying on leadership in their party to unite the party. They seem to be relying on all these external things, nobody is going to vote for Hillary, negative turnout factor. What if she's not the nominee? We've got make sure she's the nominee if the Republican Party is to be unified. What more loyal thing could I do than to run a fundraiser for Mrs. Clinton? You watch, though, you watch how that will be questioned."


Limbaugh said yesterday that "if Obama is the nominee, we are doomed, and you should get ready and prepared for it now," and previewed what he thinks will be the Democratic arguments against McCain:

what with Bill saying that oral sex wasn't really sex.

Remember the slang "getting a Monica"?

"depends on what the meaning of is is."

7. That's because they want to run against Hillary.
She's their only hope of winning.

14. only the foolish can't see that Hillary is the R's best shot at winning
Republicans and Democrats alike know that Hillary can be beat, and Obama can't.

16. Perhaps he honestly wants Hillary to be the nominee and win.
Edited on Sat Feb-09-08 01:07 AM by andym
It's very simple, not only would Rush want Hillary to be the nominee, but it is in Rush's best interest if Hillary wins the election. Remember Rush is a Republican who extols self-interest, that is he selfishly believes he should do what is his own best interest (not necessarily what is in his party's best interest). Now that the Republican nominee is not a "true conservative" by his extreme right wing criteria, he probably feels free to act selfishly.

His days of greatest popularity were when he bashed the Clintons and he would surely welcome these days back again.

This should have no bearing at all on whether Democrats vote for Hillary or Barack.

19. Don't you get why he is doing this?
He is telling his dittoheads that he disapproves of McCain so much that he would rather vote for Hillary.

Olbermann was talking about this.

22. Bingo - Makes sense.
The Republican swiftboat has emerged as well - "HillaryCare". Attack them where they are strongest and you are weakest. Of all policies, Hillary is rated highest on health.
