McCain To Obama: Leave Limbaugh Alone!
Think Progress — Over the past week, the fealty of GOP lawmakers to hate radio host Rush Limbaugh has become increasingly clear.

Weeks after the election, a Gallup Poll recorded that 67% of Republicans wanted Sarah Palin to be the party nominee in 2012. A recent ...
