Rush Limbaugh Responds To NY-23 News
National Review Online ^ | October 31, 2009 | by Kathryn Jean Lopez

Posted on 10/31/2009 11:02:11 AM PDT by MaestroLC

In response to the NY-23 news, Rush Limbaugh tells me:

“Hmmm... I thought the Era of Reagan was over? Who was it that said that? Oh yeah, the smart people on our side who told us the only way we could win was with moderate/liberal candidates like Scozzafava. Hmmm...”

This morning, I watched the video Rendezvous with Destiny that Newt produced about a year ago.

Newt needs to watch that video again and remember Reagan’s legacy.

Well folks, the Republican leadership may have found a way to defeat the impact of a direct RINO loss to a recognized Conservative.

Why we didn’t even have a person trying to win...

The RINO only has TWO natural enemies:

1. Death
2. Sarah Palin!

Newt, you have become irrelevant....

And who has been pumping up Newt for years and years.

Why our very own right side talk show hosts.

It’s not productive to be gloating and throwing pies in the faces of people we previously promoted.

Time to move ahead with clear statements about our values and our goals. Repeat often and more often.

That is so rich. He should back his candidate to the end, don’t you think? Her name is still on the ballot and all, he should be up there going door to door for Scuzzy.

I do believe that Charles has even bigger ears than Obama. Perhaps there is some sort of family connection, since Obama was born a British citizen?

A very loud and substantive warning shot has been fired over the barnacle-encrusted hull of the S.S. RNC. Loyal crewmen once casually tossed overboard in exchange for safe passage through the Straits of Liberalia are now returning in great numbers, this time as pirate-liberators.

The ship's officers cannot trust their remaining crew, for the latter know they are both overwhelmed and under the command of untrustworthy and treacherous captains. Time to raise high the old flag, boys, turn the wheel back to starboard and set sail for blue water.

Very telling I'd say. Looks to me like the Newt chooses party over principle.

No wonder the GOP has gone "democRat lite."

News like this is the only thing that keeps me in the GOP. I don't want to quit, I want to take it back.

Newt has been pulling the rug out from under conservatives for years and years. Newt is a self promoter, don't blame the Talk show hosts for airing him and standing by him when he advanced the conservative cause and calling him out when he went off to the dark side.

To paraphrase you: It’s not productive to be gloating and throwing pies in the faces of the true conservative voices that the MSM and White House and Congress are trying to silence.

As to Newt: The fact that Newt can so easily articulate both sides of virtually any issue tells me he doesn't really stand for anything. The casting couch with Pelosi was the last draw for me. I have lost count of how many PACs he has a vested interest in. I am sure draws a salary from most of them. His business is his name. More power to him in that regard, particularly if it results in funding the conservative cause, but to me he seems more political opportunist than a conservative leader.

Mikey can't lead from behind. He needs to get off the mark and drop RINOs fast, and embrace the fact that the populace is (and has always been) right of center, identifying with conservatism more than moderate-ism or liberalism.

Conservatism needs to remain in the tent of the Republican Party, but the tent should not have much space reserved for RINOs - and campaign donation ($upport) needs to be diminished to those not toeing the line for minimal government, minimal taxes, national security, constitutional fundamentalism, and protection of personal liberties. NO THRID PARTY!

Rush has been on the outs with Gingrich for almost two years, starting here: The Era of Reagan Is Not Over

People change -- Newt was on the the right track once. He went off the rails. Rush called him out.
