'Suicide Tuesday': Limbaugh blasts Romney
Rush Limbaugh today opened up on Scott Brown for his deviation from the party line and on Mitt Romney for the former Governor's endorsement of John McCain.

Limbaugh attacked Romney at some length, returning to the subject through his show. One riff:

I like Mitt Romney, but I think he's risking his career over a guy, endorsing McCain, who is so out of step with what's going on right now. McCain's always conservative when he's running for reelection in Arizona. The tea parties have produced a wave of conservatism that have swept Republicans-in-name-only aside. I understand Palin endorsing McCain. She's got no choice. Loyalty, plus if she doesn't the media will cream her, "Oh, he's good enough to be president but you won't endorse him to be Senator?" And it's understandable Romney would endorse Brown, but I don't understand Romney endorsing McCain. I just don't think it's going to fly. These endorsements are unnecessary. What is there to gain by this? Look, it's unfortunate, but people are weeding themselves out of the process all the while engaging in this kind of behavior. So in one sense it has a cleansing aspect to it.

1. Endorsements are meaningless IMHO.

2. Oh sure, the "rogue" is endorsing McCain out of loyalty.
If she hadn't, we probably would have gotten a lot more stories from McCain's people on what really happened on the campaign trail.
