The Winner: Rush Limbaugh
American Spectator ^ | 11/03/2010 | Jeffrey Lord

Posted on 11/03/2010 7:27:57 AM PDT by toma29

"I hope he fails."

With those famous four words, uttered January 16, 2009 -- only days before Barack Obama was to be inaugurated -- Rush Limbaugh drew a line in the sand.

And as a result, this morning it is Rush Limbaugh who is the undisputed winner of the 2010 election. The White House is repudiated. The Pelosi-run House of Representatives, supported by the Democrats' Congressional Campaign Committee, also deliberately targeted Limbaugh. Speaker Pelosi is, abruptly, now history. The Senate is richer by a still-undetermined number of conservatives as this goes to Internet press.

You might even call last night's landslide results a "Rushslide."

Unlike a number of conservatives and Republican leaders, Limbaugh understood from the moment of Obama's election what the new president and his allies represented: a radical, far-left agenda designed to, in the president-elect's own words, "transform America." Obama and his administration -- with the Pelosi-run House assisting -- were about nothing less than an attempt to re-make America as a collectivist, socialist state.

Characteristically, Limbaugh

The sad part is, even though Pelosi was only the Speaker for four years, and all these Congressional seats have been lost by Liberal Democrats, the damage has been done and she wipes her hands clean. Voter regrets do nothing after the fact.

The Democrats tried to paint Dr. Limbaugh as the “leader of the Republican Party”...the last two times Dr. Limbaugh actually “led” Republicans were in 1994 and this year. Maybe the bedwetting flagburners need to reconsider this.

You can thank the compromising, get along Republicans for the fact they she ever got the power. Hopefully this new batch got the message. If they did, we will be better off in the long run for having endured this assault on America.
The states where Repubs control legislatures now control redistricting and can keep and expand power for a long time, if they prove they deserve it.

Well, National Review and the Conservative Punditry were certainly among the losers. Spectator did better.

As for Karl Rove, “You’ll never eat lunch in this town again, Karl.”

I'm slow on the uptake, but did anyone else get A FREE SUNDAY NEWSPAPER starting in SEPTEMBER and ending in DECEMBER????

I was reading it and found it to be totally DEMOCRAT ELECTION PROPAGANDA ! ! ! !

This was the TOLEDO BLADE, btw. And depicted Kasich as a clown, and Strickland as Thomas Jefferson.

I think I'll write a LETTER TO THE EDITOR!

How widespread was this dinosaur media CONSPIRACY???

Mark was wonderful! He really tried to help all the “biggies”. Having those people on his show constantly, however, could not overcome the Unions and cheating.

Yes, let's not. Mark played a big part, especially with the huge success of his book, "Liberty and Tyranny," in spreading the word. Let's hope we are now able to undo some of the damage already done, starting with ObOzO's tyrannical health care monstrosity.
