I see you're taking the wrong lesson from this. As I've said before, please, go ahead and blame us for something that is really the fault of the RINOs, steer the party to the Left, ignore the conservative base and see where it gets our Party.

The real conservative base of the party has finally come to realize that not all who call themselves Republicans are our friends. We will take back the party from the RINOs and so-called moderates.

It does help that someone of Limbaugh's stature agrees that conservatism did not lose yesterday. He was right today when he said that Bush is not a conservative. Millions of supporters will make the task of reforming the GOP that much easier.

The conservative base was out and voted...unlike those who claim to have taught the GOP a lesson.

Allen, Talent, Santorum and Burns went left? Bush took some positions that went against the base - immigration most notably, but was stopped. the same base that talks about immigration - helped toss out the most conservative body, the House, who were the only ones stopping it.

Which pretty much means it is the end of Rush's career. The party heads will blame HIM along with the rest of the base for their mistakes, and keep moving left.
