Damn The Yokels, Full Speed Ahead

Going after moderates, independents, and all these yokels [bold mine-DL] is not the blueprint. The blueprint’s there, 1994, taking back the House, the blueprint’s there. Why are these people ignoring it? ~Rush Limbaugh
That’s odd. I had thought that Limbaugh et al. were going to be the tribunes of the yokels against their urbane detractors, but apparently yokels are now all of those people who are not registered Republicans. It’s a funny thing, that 1994 election victory–how did it happen? I suspect it may be yokel-related. In 1992, the Republicans won 46% of the independent vote (24% of the electorate), but won 56% in 1994. That looks good at first, but who really needs them? They’re just a bunch of yokels. The 1994 blueprint involved to a large extent winning back independents who had drifted to the Democrats, but why try to appeal to these people? I mean, when you’ve got a rock-solid 35% of the electorate, you can do anything, right?

LOL. You have an amazing sense of humor.
It’s that fuzzy math again.
If it weren’t for those meddling kids!
Your blog titles just beat the living shit out of the competition. This is the funniest political blog around, save Fafblog.
I continue to wonder why more intelligent conservative thinkers like yourself don’t go strong after Limbaugh more often. He seems like such a cancer in moving forward, and yet is still incredibly relevant. I keep waiting for some Murrow McCarthy moment.
Well, I’ve called him a disgrace and more than a few other things beside that, and I would have no problem offering an indictment of what he represents, but I don’t think dissident bloggers can pack the punch you’re looking for. For the most part, his audience will rally to him even more strongly if he were attacked in those terms, and especially if it came from someone who has also been critical of Palin. That’s the predicament–the people who are most likely to criticize Limbaugh are the people his audience is probably least inclined to follow. I believe his audience has declined from what it was back in the ’90s; I hope that Obama’s administration does not provide him with a new boost.
