The man knows no bounds… And just think, if when Romney loses, the party will erupt because of the ideologues like Limbaugh.
Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh, who normally reserves his derision for Democrats, went so far as to say of Christie: “He’s fat and a fool. Don’t listen to Governor Christie. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about.” But Limbaugh clinched the quote with his reasoning for being so vicious: “He makes fun of me all the time.”
A writer for the right-wing Daily Caller, Matt Lewis, hopped onto the anti-Christie bandwagon as well, in a post titled “What’s Chris Christie up to?” Lewis called Christie “a prop for Obama’s re-election” and speculated that there must be some kind of “Christie/Romney schism.”

So … ummmm …
A failed disk jockey-turned-shock-jock who flunked out of college knows more about disaster relief than the sitting governor of New Jersey?
Not sure that the assumption of credibility leans in that direction.
“He’s fat and a fool”? THAT is how Limbaugh chooses to attack someone? I’ll give him credit for a rather-remarkable use of irony.
