they didn't say-it's actually an excerpt from the article about her complaints with letterman-her first after months of jokes from all the late nighters. the cynic in me thinks she suddenly took umbrage so she could get some p.r. surely not...

in and of themselves they worked , the treasury took in more $$ when the cuts were enacted , GWB had trouble on the other side of the balance sheet, but , he got the revenue side right

Rush Limbaugh is making tons of money being a Republican.
Do Republicans realize he has taken their cause to make money.
He is NOT a public servant. He is an entertainer.

Anybody but him, please.

Its like the Demo's putting up Keith Olberman or Whoopie Goldberg.

i found it interesting that a bigger percentage of dems felt he was the voice of the reps than reps did.

some call him the voice, others an entertainer, i just think he's an idiot.

Makes perfect sense to me.
Democrats want him to be the voice of the Republican
Party. I would if I wanted my party to have the best
chance at winning.

I'm not, but curious why? The poll was obviously written with a slant as I think it would be far more correct to say Republicans don't have a single voice they consider to be the mouthpiece of the party as 60% answered either no one, other or no oppinion. Next closest was a tie between Rush and Newt with 10% each.

Conversely Democrats are in formation and goose stepping to Obama with 67% of those polled answering the President.

Among Repubs George Bush was off the board though 5% of Dems placed him as speaker of the good guys. OK the last bit was a little slanted. LOL

The Viagra episode...
There is so much to kill him with.

why??? look at the top five vote getters. and of course obama is the top for the dems. but if you fast forward a few years to the next election, you have to be hoping as a republican that you've got a better 'lead voice' for your party, don't you? you think rush, dick cheney, gw or mccain would be a viable candidate for national office??

Jeb Bush could work in a few years , you can't honestly say he wouldn't have better executive leadership ability going into the White House than Obama

C'mon 4 years ago how many Dems would have answered Barack Obama? Someone will step up and the 60% of us who answered no one will know who when we see and hear him/her.

i don't know that obama would have been a top vote getter in a poll four years ago, but he was certainly one being talked about. lol i really think sarah palin thinks she's going to make an obama-esque move in a few years.

True story and the Ultimate Red board, but the night that Obama beat Allan Keyes for the Senate seat, I told a guy in NY I was having dinner with that "the next President of the United States was just elected Senator tonight"..

true, true, true..

but it's one of my favs and reminds me why I lean to the right. Gives that song 'Proud to be an American' a whole new meaning.
