The left's overreaction to Limbaugh is now paying it's dividends. We saw right here, people claiming that Obama now had MILLIONS more voters, due to Limbaugh's words. Those claims, and the hopes that this episode would FINALLY make that awful man go away, are as dead as his promise to end the Patriot Act. Rush is rightly gloating.
SALLY QUINN: Obama has just been given a huge gift by the Republicans, and by the Religious Right, and by Rush Limbaugh!
LZ GRANDERSON: It's a gift to Democrats! (b-roll noise) This was a prime opportunity for him to step up as a leader and say, "What Rush Limbaugh said was bad."
DON LEMON: Is this a gift to Democrats?
JACK CAFFERTY: The biggest gift to President Obama? Limbaugh's comments!
JESSICA YELLIN: You know Democrats will say is: How could the President resist this opportunity?
TOM BROKAW: (newsroom noise) The more damage is done to the party, the more opportunities there are for the Democrats, like the Rush Limbaugh statements.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: (screaming) Over at team Obama, they’re smiling! President Obama's great fortune!
BOB SHRUM: Obama was the big winner!
RUSH: That was a week ago, March 4th through the 7th. Now listen to a montage of media people yesterday, one week after launching this all-out attack on your host. It was a sure winner. It was gonna launch Obama and the Democrats, back to electoral success. What happened?
WILLIE GEIST: (depressing music) New ABC/Washington Post poll shows President Obama's approval reversing.
CARLOS DIAZ: (music) President Obama's disapproval rating now rising, too!
CARL QUINTANILLA: (music) ... President Obama in a dead heat against Republican challengers.
MIKA BRZEZINSKI: President Obama is in a tie with both Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum.
F. CHUCK TODD: ...the latest poll, which shows President's approval rating dipping.
STUART VARNEY: Very strong disapproval of the President's performance.
SCOTT PELLEY: The President's job approval has fallen from 50% last month to an all-time low, now, of 41%.
SGT. SCHULTZ: A new poll has President Obama's approval rating at an all time low.
LYNN BERRY: Fifty percent now say they disapprove of the way Mr. Obama is handling his job.
JOHN BERMAN: Fifty percent strongly disapprove, a dubious new high in his presidency.
