Sarah Palin & Rush Limbaugh Both Agree: Democrats Want to Run Against Romney

Sarah Palin told Judge Jeanine this weekend that Obama and the mainstream media want Romney to win the GOP primary so that they can then portray Romney as someone who is out of touch with regular Americans.

Human Events reported:

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said the mainstream media and President Barack Obama “want to face Mitt Romney in the general election.” She made those comments on “Justice With Judge ” on FOX News on Saturday during the same time the Republican presidential candidates were debating in New Hampshire on ABC.

Palin said the mainstream media would take a hands-off approach to Romney “in order to bolster Romney’s chances” to “finally face Obama.”

Rush Limbaugh agreed with Sarah Palin today on his show.
Via Free Republic:

RUSH: There is a story on the Drudge Report today from Sarah Palin in which Sarah Palin says that the White House wants Mitt Romney to be the Republican nominee. Now, not only did I tell you that the Broncos were gonna beat the Steelers, for months I have been telling you that the Democrats want Romney — and you all know it. You’ve been listening here and you’ve heard people call me and tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about, that I’m full of it, that they’re scared of Romney. “Romney is the only guy who can win.” And I have said, “No,” and I’ve stood tough, and I’ve said, “They can’t wait for him. What’s Occupy Wall Street all about but running against Romney? He’s the Wall Street guy on our roster — and then Romneycare,” and I’ve laid it all out. So here comes Palin, she says it, and makes news — and Donna Brazile has said it. This is post-debate coverage on ABC Saturday night. George Stephanopoulos, Democrat Party hack disguised as the debate moderator on ABC, had this discussion with Jon Karl and Donna Brazile.

BRAZILE: Mitt Romney won tonight because no one touched him — and for Democrats, you know what? It was good news for us.

KARL: Why is that?

BRAZILE: Because we believe that the weakest candidate is the candidate that the Republicans are not attackin’, and that’s Mitt Romney.

KARL: Oh, come on.

STEPHANOPOULOS: No, you don’t believe that, Donna.

RUSH: That’s Stephanopoulos. What Stephanopoulos is saying is, “Shut up, Donna! What the hell are you doing, Donna? Did you not take your meds?” That, “Come on, Donna, what are you doing? You know you don’t believe that” means, “Donna, shut up.” You know, she’s feeling her oats there. So Palin has come out say it it and Donna Brazile saying it. “Oh, yeah, the one guy not being attacked…” She practically gleeful here, and I’ll tell you why she’s gleeful. She’s gleeful because what she sees is Romney getting the nomination, so she thinks it’s okay to blow the lid off this cover now. “Mitt Romney won tonight, because no one touched him — and for Democrats that’s good news for us.” Stephanopoulos says, “Whoa, whoa, whoa! Why is that?” “Well, because we believe the weakest candidate is the candidate the Republicans are not attacking, and that’s Romney,” and Stephanopoulos says, “Oh, you don’t believe that!” I guarantee she had a talking to. They had a talking to with her with her after this, because that’s a major faux pas. The line that’s supposed to come out of the Democrat Party is they’re scared of Romney. The line is, “Oh, no, they don’t want to face Romney. Romney is the toughest guy.” That’s the line, and they know, folks — the Democrats know that our experts are stupid enough to believe that the Democrats will be honest and tell us who they really don’t want to face. I’ll tell you who they don’t want to face when we come back.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: The Democrats are afraid of any candidate they have sought to destroy. You can start with Sarah Palin, you can move on to Santorum. Any — any conservative who showed any interest — the Democrats set out to destroy. That’s who they’re genuinely afraid of. They are not hammering Mitt Romney at all, and Donna Brazile let the cat out of the bag. Don’t doubt me.
