My Comment: I wish Gov. Mike Huckabee luck .... but he is going against the 800lb gorilla in the room.

Everyone Is Obsessing Over This Video Of Rush Limbaugh Allegedly Picking His Nose At The Super Bowl -- Business Insider

Rush Limbaugh is catching some heat for supposedly picking his nose while hanging out in Patriots owner Robert Kraft's luxury box at Sunday night's Super Bowl game. Aerosmith's lead singer Steven Tyler was also there, but doesn't appear to have a good view of Limbaugh in action.

My Comment: He touched his nose for a second .... picking it .... no. And even if he did .... so what .... he is human.

Has The GOP Establishment Declared War On The Tea Party.

Rush Limbaugh: GOP Establishment Declares War On Tea Party -- Real Clear Politics

Now, this piece in the New York Times illustrates the obstacles Tea Party lawmakers are up against. All these Republican freshmen in the House, for example, this article makes it plain how difficult their job is. There's even a section in this story on compromise, the bad kind of compromise, the kind of compromise that Republicans have been known for, get along with the Democrats, please the media, show that we're not the unreasonable Tea Party types. That's what's shaking down here. The Tea Party is under assault from the Democrats and the Republican elite, and now the battle has been brought full fore in the pages of the New York Times Magazine.
