Rush Limbaugh’s nefarious plan to defeat Barack Obama is apparently…raise money for him.
Limbaugh also called on his listeners to enter themselves into the Obama campaign’s lottery of donors who will be chosen to meet Obama backstage before his nomination acceptance speech at INVESCO Field at Mile High in Denver.
Since you have to give Obama $5 to enter the contest, Rush is basically encouraging his listeners to flood Obama’s campaign with a couple million dollars, all based on the faulty assumption that a campaign with the nationwide voter file and proficient know-how to run a cursory search of someone’s previous political donations isn’t going to bother to see if the person they invite to meet the candidate before his biggest speech is a freakin’ dittohead. Add into this the fact that there are already going to be over 1,500,000 real Obama supporters entered into the contest, and Rush may as well be encouraging his listeners to play the lottery so they can found a 527 with their winnings. Oy!
I look forward to the McCain campaign trying to say that a “major Obama fundraiser” is a draft-dodging, thrice divorced, drug addict.
