Rush Limbaugh’s Fake Ron Paul Ad Will Not Be A Hit With Ron Paul Fans
Mediaite ^ | December 17, 2011 | Frances Martel

At this point, Rush Limbaugh‘s offensive against Rep. Ron Paul has become something of a regular feature on his program. So it’s not entirely surprising that Limbaugh’s anti-Paulism has seeped into his commercials, too– or at least in parody. This week, Limbaugh debuted a “pro” Rep. Paul ad that featured the “candidate” arguing “the greatest danger is not from Iran, it’s from us overreacting.” Surely this will go over well with Paul fans.

“Ron Paul has recorded a commercial for us,” Limbaugh joked, before a commercial played featuring a fairly good (albeit a little caricatured) voice of Ron Paul arguing, “the greatest danger is not from Iran, its from us overreacting. Yhy are we flying drones over there–we are the problem here!” Followed by an anchor delivering the punchline: “Vote Ron Paul: Because Newt Gingrich is too zany and weird.”

The “campaign ad” via Limbaugh’s show below:

Not many from the Ron Paul cult heard it.
First, isn’t that about the time Alex Jones is on and giving them their latest conspiracies to believe in?
Second, Rush is on AM radio and reception in basements can be poor.
Third, they avoid any sources of the truth.

Limbaugh, in a desperate attempt to regain his relevance, is now being forced to use Ron Paul to get attention.

Ron Paul is not the enemy, Rush. Learn that and maybe your audience will return.

“Ron Paul is not the enemy”

No, he probably is not. He is simply a streetcorner crazy that normal people cross the street to avoid.

Why the concern, Rush? America does not elect nutcases.

1. A lot of college-age kiddies in all the schools there want to be able to smoke dope more easily.
2. His cult are the only people with so little life that they answer the phone for polls. Mainstream Americans are preparing for Christmas and hang up on pollsters.
3. The PPP poll is a worthless liberal poll to help the useful idiot make the GOP look silly.

One outlier poll of questionable worth.

Get back to me when Rasmussen does a new Iowa poll.

It’s just a bit of entertainment that made light of Pauls last debate in Iowa.
