He is Benedict Arnold from hell. He has totally jumped ship. And, along with Kerry, he is carrying the flag for the other side. And we have...

RUSH: It is apparent, ladies and gentlemen, that General John "Swifty" Kerry has taken over Obama foreign policy. You people who thought you were voting for Obama to change foreign policy were wrong. You know, I still can't get over that last sound bite. President Obama, there aren't Bush troops, and there aren't Obama troops.

RUSH: In NY-23, Real Clear Politics: "Doug Hoffman, plus five." Doug Hoffman may in fact win this with nowhere near the amount of money the two Democrats have. I know there's a Democrat called a Republican, but we actually have two liberal Obama Democrats, one calling herself a Republican, and you've got the Reagan conservative Hoffman in there. Tim Pawlenty threw in with him today, by the way, so you have Sarah Palin, Fred Thompson, Rick Santorum, who else? (interruption) Sue Collins endorsed...

After we proved to them that I didn't do it they retracted it a week later,...
