No.1 radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh went on Fox News’
“The O’Reilly Factor” and reiterated his
call for Republicans to vote for Hillary Clinton in Tuesday’s
primaries in Ohio and Texas to keep Barack Obama from wrapping
up the race.
If Hillary Clinton does remain in the race and drags the
primaries out to June or even to the Democratic Convention
in August, Democrats may end up spending $200 million to $300
million more in attacking each other.
The prospect makes the Republican-leaning Limbaugh giddy.
As Newsmax reported earlier, the influential conservative
has urged Republicans in Texas and Ohio to “pimp themselves”
for just one day vote by voting for Hillary to keep the Democratic
Party “at war with itself.”

On Friday night he told Laura Ingraham, who was filling in
for Bill O’Reilly, “I want Hillary to stay in
this, Laura. This is too good a soap opera. We need Barack
Obama bloodied up politically, and it's obvious that the Republicans
are not going to do it and don't have the stomach for it.
“As you probably know, we're getting all kinds of memos
from the [Republican National Committee], saying not to be
critical there. Mark MacKinnon of McCain's campaign says he'll
quit if they get critical over Obama.
“This is the presidency of the United States you're
talking about. I want our party to win. I want the Democrats
to lose. They're in the midst of tearing themselves apart
right now. It is fascinating to watch. And it's all going
to stop if Hillary loses. So yes, I'm asking to cross over,
if they can stomach it. I know it's a difficult thing to do
to vote for a Clinton, but it will sustain this soap opera,
and it's something I think we need. It would be fun, too.”
Ingraham noted that Rush and Hillary and Bill Clinton make
“very strange bedfellows.”
