3. Republicans are pretty sick people
Christ -- 58,000,000 of them voted for Sarah Palin, arguably the worst candidate for vice president in the history of the country.

4. Correction: 60%, not nearly 3/4 of Republicans, view him favorably
Nearly 2/3 would be closer to reality.

5. It takes an asswipe to get a favorable view of Rush Limbaugh
It's just a matter of location.

6. I couldn't care less about the pubs
More interesting are the independents:

Favorable: 25%
Unfavorable: 45%

There aren't enough pubs nationally to do anything. Indpendents are where our eyes should be in terms of elections.

7. No surprise here
They owe him. Over the years he has been loyally supportive of their stupiditiy. And he has helped them turn out their voters in cycle after cycle. No wonder they like the guy.
