The Limbaugh Rule: Vote For Most Conservative Candidate In Primary

Well, the big election in Delaware today is bringing out people on both sides, on the Republican side, on both sides of this. It is most unfortunate what is going on because in my mind, you know, I was telling you about this dinner party I went to on Saturday night where the host threw out the question: “One a scale of one to ten, ten meaning the country’s finished, one meaning, hey, we’re in fat city, where do you think the country is?” And a prominent person said, “I think we’re at an eight.” I was telling the story to other people, who asked me, “What did you say?” I said, “Well, a six or seven,” but I wanted to focus on a different aspect of this, and that is, how to arrest and how to stop this. My point was that we’ve never had, never, ever — I mean we’ve got the Democrats ready to run off a cliff. We have got liberalism and socialism set up to be destroyed, and the frustrating thing is that half the Republicans in this country don’t see it, or they’re afraid of it, or they don’t want to go there, and that’s the thing that bothers me about it. We still have people who want to compromise with these people! We still have people who want to walk across the aisle and be reasonable and get along with them.

We still have people who think that professional Washington politicians are the way to fix this, and clearly it isn’t. Some of these people are citing the Buckley Rule. Now, I can honestly say that I know what the Buckley Rule is. I can honestly say I knew William F. Buckley and Buckley was a friend of mine. The Buckley Rule is, ostensibly, that you vote for the most electable conservative option against a Democrat in November. You vote for the Republican, slash, conservative who can win. To me, this requires clairvoyance, as is being currently applied in the Mike Castle-Christine O’Donnell race in Delaware, to use an example. The polling data is that Castle will win big and O’Donnell will lose big. If she gets the Republican nomination today, if she wins the election she’ll lose big. The polls say she’ll lose by 25 points; that Castle will win by 20 points. But who knows this? The election’s a long time off. In a year like this, it seems to me that Americanism versus socialism can make up 25 points. Why the hell not try to? Is what I don’t understand. Why not try to make up the 25 points?

Okay, let’s just assume that it’s correct. Let’s assume that Christine O’Donnell is down in the polls, Democrat polls, by the way, by 25 points. Okay, fine. If she’s the best option we have to stop what’s going on once she gets to Washington, why not try to make up the 25 points? We got socialism, communism, liberalism on the ropes. It’s too risky? Let me tell you something. It’s worth the risk. We’re talking about saving the [blank] damn country. What do you mean, too risky?

  1. Mike Kauppi says:

    This should be a wake-up call for the RNC and RNSC. Both of them need to get on board and start supporting Conservative candidates, not simply long time perenniel RINO candidates like Mike Castle.

  2. Ronald Hitchcock says:

    These "Republicans" that are so down on Christine O'Donnell are worse than Obama. Listen to the people "DUMMIES". They want something different so BACK their choice. Don't bury your head in fustration that YOU LOST. The PEOPLE have SPOKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. Robert Beaumont says:

    good stuff but "REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER VOTE"

  4. Carol Gerber says:

    Now You See What "The Iron Lady" Gov Sarah Palin Has Been Up Against For The Last Few Years, Yikeess, The Limbaugh Rule Is What The Obama Zombies With George Saros Use To Knock Sarah Palin And The Tea Partys Down, Yikees, Because The Party With The Most Power Is The Tea Party With Sarah Palin, Yippee, Read My Lips The Manchurian Muslim Paperless Pres Obama Is A One Term Pres, And The Worst Pres On Record, God Bless Sarah Palin And America Our New POTUS.

  5. It ain't often I agree with Rush 100%… this is one of them however.
    Go Christine O'Donnell!

  6. I
    I left the Republican party shortly after the 1986 Amnesty disaster under Reagan. It was supposed to solve the problem of the illegal alien invasion by giving amnesty to somewhere between 3-6 million "undocumented democrat voters". Well we see how well that has worked!!! And the democrats and RINO's have been using the same number of 10-12 million illegal alien invaders for what 10-15 years now. According to reliable sources the real number of illegal aliens is between 20-30 million. And if these democrat traitors are allowed to pass this current amnesty for 20-30 million “undocumented democrat voters” with "chain migration" for basic family members going out to not only parents and grandparents but aunts, uncles, cousins and grandchildren that number will quickly swell to 50-75 million additional uneducated disease ridden criminal gang members with the continuing destruction of the American culture, environment and infrastructure speeding American's decline to a third world cesspool like most of Mexico.

  7. I have been a registered Libertarian since 1990. I have voted for conservative Republicans when there were any but they are far and few in between. I will now vote for ANY third party candidate as opposed to the worthless RINO McLame in November!!!

    • Please don't waste your VERY IMPORTANT ammunition. If you do, you have just
      OPENED THE DOOR AND ROLLED OUT THE RED CARPET for the man who
      should not be sleeping in OUR WHITE HOUSE. Thank you.

  8. Fantastic, I could not have said it better!!

  9. I am with Rush Limbaugh. Do not vote just because they call them selves Republican. Vote for the true conservatives. Both parties have self centered criminals and they are for themselves only. Most have become millionaires off the backs of Tax Payers. If we are to save our Republic it must be that conservatives control both houses of congress. I am so fed up with those worthless b-s-a-ds in DC!!!!!!

  10. If the RNC & RNSC want to survive then it is best for them to back Christine O'Donnell's nomination who was elected by the people of Delaware & come home to conservative thinking & values which the people are demanding.

  11. Put your money where your mouth is……click on this link to support Christine…. https://senateconservatives.com/christine?c=A24C9

    Let's show the naysayers what "we the people" can do!

  12. Lawrence Ekdahl says:

    I am convinced that God will give us the government we deserve. If enough of us, and I emphasize "us" including me, will go to our knees and truly repent and discard all of our false gods and our selfishness, The true living might give us good government. It all depends on our repentance and God's mercy.

  13. If we have fair elections, conservatives will win BUT MoveOn.org is "helping" get absentee ballots and mailing it for voters (and replacing the ballots?). We have corruption of certain electronic voting machines that can be done in ONE MINUTE, folks and you can't see it. SEIU thugs intimidated voters in 2008. I'm sure they will do it again.

  14. There is a blogger out there (I forget his name.) but part of his signature is quoting (again someone I don't remember) but the quote goes, 'If you have your enemy at your mercy and you don't destroy him, then you are your own worst enemy', We need to destroy this liberal progressive regime. We need to cut the head of this SNAKE off so that it can never do what it has tried to do to this great country again.

  15. Limbaugh: "Well, it's time, ladies and gentlemen, for the Limbaugh Rule to supplant and replace the Buckley Rule."

    So Limbaugh, the pompous jackass whose primary goal is to draw an audience, apparently now thinks he's more important than Buckley, one of the smartest Americans ever and probably the single-most important figure in the rise of modern conservatism (though not of Bush-Cheney-style neo-conservatism)?

    Perhaps for modern Republicans, Limbaugh may be right. But modern Republicans probably have Buckley spinning in his grave.

    • James this is just more of your Liberal Progressive BS as usual. Nothing more than your biased Liberal Progressive Opinion against Limbaugh.So Limbaugh according to you is a pompous Jackass? So James you lied! You made the comment in one of your other post that you never attacked any one with profanity! Let me remind you that Buckley is deceased! Therefore yes Limbaugh has in fact replaced Buckley as the single most important figure of conservatiem.

      • So which is profane, in your view–"pompous" or "jackass"? And if it's the latter, we better do some editing of the Bible to clean it up.

        • James you can not BS your way out of this one!

          • In other words, you can't answer the question? Frankly I consider "Hot Cougar" in its modern context (as opposed to an angry mountain lion or a flaming puma) to be more profane than any word I used above. But then, so is "Limbaugh," for that matter.

          • James the only ass that i know is you!
            You well know that jackass used in the proper context would be defined as profanilty. What are you trying to say?( But then,so is 'Limbaugh" for that matter). Limbaugh is what? Dang it is hard to comprehend what you are trying to say at times! I guess i should cut you some slack since you have such a severe reading, writting & comprehension disorder.

          • Wrong yet again.My dictionary's definition of jackass:
            1) A male ass or donkey.
            2) A foolish or stupid person; a blockhead: "You've acted like an irrational jackass and it's time you stopped"
            Obviously that second definition is the one that applies to Limbaugh.

    • Christ you are an imbecile. Typical lib, chit for brains.
