Limbaugh Tells Romney To Ditch Eric Fehrnstrom and ‘Get Some Real Conservatives As His Spokespeople’

Rmoney's campaign and the RW nuts are in a meltdown again.

Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh praised the notion circulating among Republicans on Friday that Romney should make the ideological case for his election and state why President Barack Obama‘s political values are antithetical to those of most Americans. He took a shot at Romney’s campaign advisors too, particularly longtime Romney advisor Eric Fehrnstrom, who he said the campaign does not need.

Limbaugh praised a column by Charles Krauthammer who urged Mitt Romney to highlight the ideological distinctions between himself and President Barack Obama.

“All Romney has to do is get some real conservatives as his spokespeople and this problem won’t happen anymore,” said Limbaugh. He then took a shot at Fehrnstrom, as well as the rest of Romney’s communication team.

“We don’t need the Etch-a-Sketch guy. And we don’t need people who are not ideological,” Limbaugh said. “I have begged Romney and the Republican party at large, would you please say this is ideological? Would you please start thinking in terms of ideology?”

I am sure the WH's oppo researchers have a bulging dossier on the Zombie-Eyed Granny Starver just waiting to hit the airwaves.

He himself doesn't have a clue what he stands for other than lower taxes for rich people.
