Limbaugh Loses It

The internecine war in the Republican party if McCain wins the nomination will be brutal to watch. The photo-image is taken from Rush's own site:

Those of us who are opposing these McCain... Let me set this up a better way.  When Huckabee was coming out of nowhere in Iowa, we had numerous pundits on the left who write 01125109par89380imagefile their conservatism to be read by liberals, jumping on the Huckabee bandwagon. And then McCain came out of nowhere in New Hampshire, and then they jumped on the McCain bandwagon.  Romney wins in Michigan, and they didn't jump on the Romney bandwagon. They stayed on the McCain bandwagon.  Then we go to Wyoming, and Romney won all the delegates there, and they didn't jump on the Romney bandwagon. They stayed on the McCain bandwagon and hoped for Huckabee.  And then we get to South Carolina and Nevada.  In Nevada, Romney cleans up, and nobody talks about it.  "Romney is nowhere. He's off the charts. He should quit.  Thompson should quit. He should get out of the race!" They remain on the McCain bandwagon.  Now the people on the McCain bandwagon are telling those of us who aren't on the McCain bandwagon, to shut up. Just be quiet. We are supposedly damaging the Republican Party.

We are supposedly damaging the conservative movement. We should just shut up.  Just sit by and watch all this stuff and let it happen and just be quiet.  What is the point?

Hewitt and Limbaugh face off against Kristol and Brooks. And they say the Democratic race is getting nasty.
