From conservative Jerry Taylor, writing at National Review Online:
The question for conservatives is this: Do you want President Obama to succeed in painting the Republican party as the party of Rush Limbaugh? Given his sub-Nixon popularity figures, I can’t believe I’m causing a firestorm by suggesting the answer here is probably “no.”
Oh, but he is causing a firestorm. As near as I can tell, not a single person at NRO is coming to Taylor’s aid. They like being the party of Limbaugh.
In other news of the ongoing intellectual collapse of the conservative movement, Politico’s Roger Simon reports that the Republican National Committee will meet in an extraordinary special session next week to approve a resolution rebranding Democrats as the “Democrat Socialist Party.” Yippee! They’re like five-year-olds in a sandbox. I can’t wait to see what NRO thinks of this.
