Rush should have mentioned that everything the Admin is doing now, smacks at communism. He neglected to even mention communism and I think that was a mistake. Most people hate the idea of communism and would rally around an effort to stop it in this country.

He hinted at it when he mentioned that the root word of community is commune.

Rush did say:

"We have socialism, collectivism, Stalin([ism], whatever you want to call it, versus capitalism."

I thought Rush made the communist connection rather well. Good enough for me anyway. In fact, I thought Rush hit a home run with his speech at CPAC. As did Newt and several other rightwingers. What undercut Rush`s message and the overall conservative message of CPAC this year, was the split in the straw poll voting. Albeit, a meaningless poll. Nonetheless, this continued fracturing of conservatives that gave the Romney the chameleon a slight preference over the others, serves no good purpose in the end.

The goal today should stay focused on the 2010 election which is just around the corner. Congressional Republicans have remained united against Obama during his Honeymoon phase. Great. Hopefully that won't change.

Instead of offering mostly empty rhetoric, Rep Eric Cantor should spend more time deconstructing the Democrats overall plans for America. In this interview, Cantor came across a litle too PC and yes, he did repudiate Rush Limbaugh's speech at CPAC yesterday.
