Rush Limbaugh says Romney's victory speech last night was his best one yet, he just hopes he means what he said.

"Right on, right on. So maybe the conservative alternative to Romney is Romney. Let's hope so. It all boils down to whether he means this. It's that simple," Limbaugh said.

Hmmmm... is Rush banned now?

From my radio he is if he is going to try and convince conservatives to vote for someone whose record is the left of and who lies and flip-flops like Bill Clinton.

We need a very strong House and to win a good decent majority in the Senate. Getting rid of Boehner and McConnell and replacing them with maybe Ryan and Rand Paul or somebody would be a vast improvement.

Exactly! that's what I've said all along too. We need Conservatives elected to the House and Senate to keep Romney in check if he's the nominee and winner. And yes, Boehner and McConnell need to be replaced and I love your choices, I'd add Bachmann to that list too.

Good old Rush. Once a water boy, always a water boy.

The bad thing about Romney is that he’s a weathervane.

The good thing about Romney is that he’s a weathervane —as long as we make his life more miserable than the left.

not perfect but way better than 4 more of Obama

Just Arnold Schwarzenegger was supposed to be better than Grey Davis in California? Or Michael Bloomberg was supposed to be better than the Democratic alternative in NYC?

Romney is WORSE than Obama. He'll dramatically move the GOP to the left and will have to go eight years without a conservative in the White House instead of four. He will work with RINOS and Democrats to get things passed Obama could only dream of. Any gains and then some that Republicans made in Congress in 2010 will be wiped away when Republican signs off on liberal policies that Republicans will get the blame for when they fail.

God save this country if everyone goes soft. I for one think the constitution party nomniee to be determined in three weeks will look really good to vote for.

How is that going to be possible when, if he is elected, he'll have been elected without minimal conservative support and as a moderate candidate?

He'll stick it to conservatives just Lisa Murkowski has done in Alaska.

Ampersand, Pound Sign...and many other choice words I can’t use... I can’t believe this.

Next election... we have to dump the GOP. We HAVE to start a bonafide conservatives-only Tea Party. It MUST be done! I’m tired of this dollar-sign-percentage-sign-star party!

Yep. Anyone who listens to Rush on a semi-regular basis knows that he can’t stand Romney. If Romney shills insist on using this out of context excerpt to try to make it look like Rush supports Romney in any way, they’re probably going to be very sorry when they force Rush to repudiate them in no uncertain terms.

Rush always goes back to the way of the Establishment republicans. He made excuses for HW Bush and the read my lips (no new taxes) and how he covered for GW Bush for growing the entitlement programs with the liberals. He visits with papa Bush. Brit Hume says there’s a deep grudge with HW and Gingrich. So, explains to me why he hasn’t defended Newt that much (loyalty not because of Newt’s leadership to get things done) Rush is not a man of reforms. he has to keep his base so he threw lots for Ricky.
He knew that would pull votes from Newt. His own little operation chaos. He knows his audience. Didnt you find it odd after Bloody Thursday he did not defend Newt.

I always knew he would be ok with Mitt. Newt and Rick are more conservative than Romney will ever be even with their ups and downs. What a shame we maybe losing a great president in Newt for Mr Imposer. Once Newt is out, you guys knock yourselves selling Romney/Obama-at least Obama is honest of who he is while the other hides as he said I am a stealth candidate to a group of liberals. We are have been played for soooo long.

“Romney or Obama. If you’re forced to eat either dog crap or Taco Bell, you learn to swallow the chalupa.”

LOL - well put.

Save the gasoline. Just vote for a rutabega in your kitchen. You can shove the ballot down the sink and have exactly the same effect on determining the next president.

Rush held his nose with a fistful of clothespins and shilled for McCain in ‘08. Probably no greater challenge for him than that.

Remember, in 08 Rush said Romney was the conservative candidate and fully represented all the legs of the conservative stool.

Oh..if Palin comes in next and tells us to get behind Romney..then I will know for certain America is what it is. I thought Newt, Palin, West or Rubio would save us from Romney and this transformation not only of the party but America.

Just because Slick Willie now is starting to sound conservative, doesn't mean anything more than posturing to win over the tea party and the ultra conservatives. Too bad for him, most of the conservatives will never trust Romeny. He is a proven RINO or CINO and will never be a conservative. You can't be buddy with Teddy Kennedy and then expect the conservative base ever believe one word you say.
