I love the Rush line: "You won't find this book in any library - Great Moderates in History".

Agreed...a classic line.

So, Pat...do you think G-d Almighty is “too extreme”?

You and I are different people.

What an erudite observation!

You are a moderate,clearly.

Nope, but I clearly understand history and electoral politics better than you.

Do you think Goldwater, who you quoted, was not an 'extreme' candidate?

The population rejected his message in overwhelming fashion. Not just in terms of popular vote, but in terms of electoral outcome.

His 'right wing extremism' message garnered all of SIX STATES. You can't win the White House that way, sorry. Obama's support right now is well under 50%, and he's really struggling in states he needs to win an electoral majority. Only way the GOP can lose this election is by selecting a candidate that turns off more voters than Obama (and that's going to be hard).

Pat Robertson has been a liability to conservatives for decades. It’s long past time for us to start giving him the cold shoulder he so richly deserves.

Go play with yourself, Mr. Moderate.

Do you really think that the American people are going to force a young woman who has been raped to carry the baby to birth? Put her in jail if she doesn’t? Let’s get real.

That is what he is talking about.

If I am advising Obama, I would tell him to use the Harry Reid strategy against Sharron Angle to win re-election. .
