Sarah Palin

Thank You, Rush Limbaugh

Limbaugh on Sarah Palin's presidential chances:

“’The Inside the Beltway’ ruling class — the elite — they’re more oriented toward candidates they can attach the word ‘serious’ to — which is another way of saying someone who is boring, who doesn’t ruffle feathers, someone who exudes an air of formal education and sophistication — she doesn’t exude that, and I think it’s going to shake a lot of people up ... You know the effect that she has on establishment Republican people. They’re just as frightened in their own way as the Democrats are of Palin and one thing I think is inescapable — particularly in looking at the Democrats — the Democrats and the media will always tell you who they are afraid of by virtue of who they spend time trying to destroy.”

It's not just "serious" people who hate Palin, it's anyone with a brain in their heads who understand that domestic/world affairs are too precarious to be run by a reality show doof who uses tween slang like "lamestream media LOL."

Please, Limbaugh -- please keep doing this. Because Sarah Palin is arguably the perfect psychobomb to be detonated inside the already-shaky Republican Party, and beyond fracturing the party itself, her candidacy will scare away independent voters.

Keep going, Limbaugh!
