Rush Limbaugh Predicts Republican 'Wave' in Midterm Elections

Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh on Wednesday predicted frustrated voters will create "a wave election like 2010" in this year's midterms, kicking out Democrats "every chance they get."

On his daily radio show, Limbaugh pointed to "plenty of evidence" for the potential sweep, citing the retirement announcement last month of California liberal icon Rep. Henry Waxman and several other Democrats.

"They're in the swan's song portion of their lives anyway," Limbaugh said. "Waxman, he doesn't want to be a member of a minority in the House of Representatives, where basically all they're doing is writing executive orders for [President Barack] Obama . . . These people don't want to be in the minority. It's no fun."

Here’s Limbaugh’s exact quote:

“I’m gonna go out on a limb here, I fully expect the 2014 midterms to be a wave election like 2010. I think the people of this country are gonna sweep Democrats out of office every chance they get, every opportunity they get.”

I came across an afternoon show today on one of the alphabet channels. Pictured was stock video of Rush and multiple people remarking about his comments regarding Sandra Fluke and how that will impact women in business roles. Nothing new but one bumble head who was woefully nervous and seemingly espousing feminist superiority (something about that was on the graphic) in her delivery said “Companies are literally taking money out of Rush’s pockets to this day.” Literally? I hope he slaps their hands. The last line is intended sarcasm.

And the victorious RINO’s will trash us Tea Party conservatives again post victory while we’re the ones voting against rotten demoRats the greater of the two evils. A catch 22 scenario.

He tries to rally the troops, but he is often wrong.

Rush also thought by voting for Zero in the primaries would stop Clinton from winning the nomination and McLoser would win in a landslide election b/c no one would vote for Zero.

I rate Rush’s predictions right up there with Karl Rove and Globull Warmers

After which the majority Republicans will appoint every special prosecutor DemoRats ask for and require those investigated to answer unlimited questioning without legal or Constitutional protection.

When Nancy Pelosi runs ads in her own district CONDEMNING and DISTANCING herself from Obamacare --- you know the Dem's are in trouble.

Question is, can the STUPID PARTY stop itself from snatching defeat from the jaws of victory again?

Glass half empty, eh?

It takes more than just one election cycle to drain the swamp. It'll probably take several...maybe more.

It's an uphill battle to reverse 100 years of decline and degradation in our government, but reclaiming our country is worth every bruised knuckle.

More like 3/4 empty and leaking into 2016.

But we’ll see if the country has learned anything, soon enough.

Pulling the GOPe to victory whether they like it or not, kicking and scratching us all the way? Knowing we won’t get gratitude either.
