Limbaugh urges listeners to vote for Clinton

[Abacus]

(CNN) – As Hillary Clinton battles to keep her presidential bid alive, she may be getting help from an unlikely source: conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh.

Limbaugh has been actively urging his Texas listeners to cross over and vote for Clinton in that state's open primary Tuesday, arguing it helps the Republicans if the Democratic race remains unsettled for weeks to come.

"I want Hillary to stay in this…this is too good a soap opera," Limbaugh told fellow conservative talk-show host Laura Ingraham on Fox News Friday. He reiterated the comments on his Monday show and replayed the exchange with Ingram.

He also said Clinton is more willing than the Republican National Committee and John McCain's campaign to criticize Barack Obama.

1. And last week he was ready to endorse Obama.

Conservative radio personality Rush Limbaugh says he sees no way he would support U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., the apparent GOP nominee for U.S. president.

He said he may not endorse anyone in this year's race for president.

Limbaugh, who temporarily moved his base from Florida to New York, insists that McCain is too moderate for his taste. His criticisms even led to a tongue-in-cheek tentative decision to endorse Democratic contender Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., The New York Times said.

Limbaugh listed nearly a dozen qualities he said he found admirable in Obama, including his stand on abortion rights and that he is a tax-cutter extraordinaire. Then Limbaugh added that Obama would establish a college football playoff and offer free beer Fridays.

His point, Limbaugh said, was that Obama represented a blank canvas upon which anyone can project their fantasies and desires.

Limbaugh told the Times he held out little hope McCain could sway him to his side and added, "It's entirely possible I will go the distance without saying I support a candidate."

2. Repubs want a Hillary win...

The Repub I work with is voting for her. Says Mccain has a better shot against Hillary.

5. And I thought it was b/c a Hillary win would give Rush more to talk about

and justify his salary for eight years.

6. I doubt that repubs want Hillary to win because

1. Why would a most hated republican by the dem party be so open in their endorsement? No democrat wants to take sides with the bad guy. I believe it is actually a way to get people to vote for obama.. In 2004 Osama Bin Laden endorsed John Kerry and people voted for bush...

7. You are thinking way too intelligently

Rush Limbaugh's listeners aren't even bright enough to fall victim to "reverse psychology" and vote for Obama because he tells them to vote for Clinton--nor are most other Republicans for that matter.
