LANDSLIDE: Limbaugh Predicts 2012 Election
Rush Limbaugh predicts 2012 outcome Radio host says pollsters wrong about presidential race
By Joe Kovacs
PALM BEACH, Fla. While polls across America show Barack Obama in a tight race for president with potential Republican nominees, top-rated radio host Rush Limbaugh doesnt think the outcome of the race will even be close.
If the election were today, it would be a landslide loss, Limbaugh said this afternoon. Let me define landslide: five to seven points. Itd be big. It would be huge.
Make no mistake about it, he continued. Of this I am as confident as anything. I know its not reflected anywhere else in the media and its not reflected too many other places in conservative media. But Im telling you, hes toast. Just as Jimmy Carter was toast, and nobody knew it until election night [in 1980].
Limbaugh cited Gallup polling about Obamas personal approval ratings among voters, and he says the forecast is not bright for the president.

Dang, ...their...
@#$** engineers.
Well.. accept for his support of Arlen Specter who gave us the 60th vote for closure on Obama care...
I’d still vote for him. but he is not as conservative as they come. Some where I saw he got a D on gun rights.
They're trying to do the same thing today but all the crap they're telling us is being ignored and laughed at.
I'm with Rush on this, Obama is indeed toast and the real question that needs to be addressed is who in the GOP is going to replace him.........
What we have now that we didn't then is a weakened MSM and the alternative media. Everybody got their news in 1980 from the big three networks and newspapers. Nobody but techies were on the Internet, if it was even called that back then. There was no Fox News. Heck, Rush was still working for the K.C. Royals.
Today, lots of people don't read a newspaper and get news from alternative sources. The MSM are in a much weaker position to throw elections over to the Dems. And as to the economy, what Barry's people and the media are basically telling America is, who you gonna believe, me or your lyin' eyes? Not a strong pitch.
“... enough to respond twice. LOL”
Not guilty! The interwebs fouled me up!
I hope Rush is right. I’d love nothing better than to listen to the crying and whining of the liberals when Obama is tossed out of public housing.
I’m in a blue part of Ohio, and with what I see around me, that’s not going to be easy. America may have once been firmly center right, but it’s drifting left.
What you say is true. I just have a deep nagging fear that they will cause something to happen to benefit them. I still question the timing of the killing of Osama Bin Laden, too coincidental to the Trump & birth certificate stuff.
I can’t think of a time that I am less optimistic in the short term. I think the land is buried in a blizzard of self-deception, corruption and strong delusion.
Bingo! All politics now are racial. Revenge against whitey. Latinos, Blacks and women will vote democrat.
I think there is a lot we still don’t know about the OBL take down, from both the American and Pak sides.
It is Obama’s race to lose which he seems to be doing handily.
And just as much work for the Democrat gravediggers in their quest to secure votes. The Justice Department is running interference for them and will grow even more active blocking vote fraud abatement efforts as we get closer to the Election.
He is probably right,but it will be the Democrats winning. Which is what the Republican Party wants.
I suspect the “October Surprise” will happen in mid to late summer and it will be an attack on Iran. The kenyan will be “bold” in the “hour of Crisis”, will do some major Speeches to the People, and will be reelected before the built in disaster overcomes the effort. Smacking Iran would not be out of character for him. His version of Islam seems to be Sunni and taking damaging the Shia power that is bidding to rule Islam and the world in favor of the likes of the Moslem Brotherhood would be a right move for him.
The kenyan's JD will do many things to stop efforts to reduce or eliminate voter fraud. Voter Fraud on behalf of the Left is a Constitutional Right, doncha know!
Sad but true.
To me, the issue is not who will be elected, but will the policies of this nation over the last twenty years be continued?
Increasing government, increasing internationalism, increasing encroachment of civil rights under the guise of taking care of us, increasing limitations on our freedoms, increasing regulations on all kinds of activity, decreasing effectiveness of out education quality, decreasing and dilution of the value of the one person one vote concept for US citizens, increasing disregard of duly enacted laws...the list goes on and on.
Will any of the Republicans, if elected, stop any of these trends?
We have already reached escape velocity and we are leaving the first principles far behind while we head for the abyss of space.
