RUSH: The name of Rush Limbaugh has been injected into the Illinois Senate race. By the way, do you realize, folks, a Democrat Congressional Campaign Committee has pulled out of the special election in Hawaii to replace the socialist Neil Abercrombie, who quit because I think he wants to be governor. They pulled out. This is Obama\u2019s home state! This is where Obama was born. The Democrats have pulled out of — (interruption) Snerdley said, ‘Now you did it, now I\u2019m going to get bombarded with phone calls.\u2019 Deal with it. I have to deal with my own stuff in here, you deal with it in there. Now, the Democrats pulled out. This is a socialist state. Pulling out means they don\u2019t even think they can win the general. We\u2019re still in the primary stages of this. And your host\u2019s name has been injected into the Illinois Senate race to fill Obama\u2019s seat. This is the Democrat candidate Alexi Giannoulias.<\/p>\n

GIANNOULIAS: The people of Illinois deserve to know why Congressman Kirk joined Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh in a opposing Justice Sotomayor\u2019s nomination and whether he will once again stand with the right wing in opposing solicitor general Kagan as well.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So this guy running for the Senate, Mr. Kirk, has got to explain why he joined Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh. Mr. Giannoulias, you Democrats need to explain why you are siding against the American people, from the administration on down. Speaking of Elena Kagan, there\u2019s some incredible things about her in the news. This is from Investor\u2019s Business Daily. I know he needs to explain to voters how his family\u2019s bank failed and where the money went, but no he doesn\u2019t, because in Chicago everybody expects a Democrat to be corrupt. It\u2019s the stupid ones that get caught in the process, like Blagojevich, that get kicked out of there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
