I do think there is a point where Rahm Emmanuel will have to hit back. Right now, these oafs are making his job easy. When the time comes though, they Emmanuel will not hesitate to stripe Limbaugh's legs, hard.

Really? The party is at each others' throats this early in the game, with support solidly behind Obama and completely at odds with the Republicans message, Limbaugh is hoping the Democrats go after him.

Let Limbaugh play out. He's on the Gingrich path, headed towards the exit. Sure, he'll have his loyal followers, but will the Democrats need those votes...ever?

President Obama and the Democrats did what they needed to do in November. If they start playing the Limbaugh radio talk games, they'll be walking into a diversion, set up to waste their time and energy.

Plants are calling into C-Span now spouting the old campaign lies with a slightly new twist "I used to be a Democrat/Independent, but now I'm so upset with Obama and so are a lot of other Americans. He's just like Carter, who was with the Trilateral Commission, and Clinton, who forced the Community Reinvestment Act on bankers...." Need I go on?

No such thing is happening. If anything, more and more moderate Republicans are moving further and further away from the party. Ask Steele. He knows exactly what's going on, but since Republicans have been better at making enemies instead of making alliances within and outside their own party, they don't have a plan to deal with the breakup. Steele has to hold on to the base, because if he loses that, he has absolutely nothing.
