GOP War Over Palin! Limbaugh Blasts McCain Team As “Losers” Over Criticism Of Sarah


In the latest sign of open warfare within the Republican Party over the future of Sarah Palin and the GOP, Rush Limbaugh unleashed a blistering shot at McCain campaign manager Steve Schmidt over his criticism of Palin today, blasting the McCain team as “losers” who should “move aside” so others can “clean up the mess they helped create.”

Rush, a major Palin booster, just emailed me a harsh response to Schmidt, who sharply criticized Palin at a conference today in remarks that have rocketed around the political world, claiming that her selection as the 2012 GOP nominee would be “catastrophic” for the party.

Asked for comment, Rush emailed:

I think it’s time for the McCain crowd to acknowledge they are losers and pack it in. They’ve done enough damage to the Republican Party. Move aside and let a brighter, more principled, and more competent generation of people clean up the mess they helped create.


Ouch! Rush also confirmed to me that he’d be hitting these points on his show and would also discuss a big Politico story today claiming that McCain’s mission is to remake the GOP in his image.

Rush’s criticism will exacerbate the increasingly public war over the party’s future between party moderates, who advocate for a more constructive posture towards Obama and Dems, and the restive, angry, uncompromising Palin Nation wing.

1. If Palin is the GOP nominee in 2012, it will make 1964 look like a nailbiter

She would be an unmitigated disaster for the GOP in 2012.

Schmidt is right.
