Limbaugh goes after Rudman

Talk radio show host Rush Limbaugh spent most of his radio show today attacking the conservative credentials of John McCain. To bolster his attack he went directly after former New Hampshire U.S. Senator Warren Rudman who serves as a national co-chair of McCain's campaign. He also goes after New Hampshire native David Souter.

Here is the "rush" transcript from Limbaugh's website.

"Warren Rudman was the Republican responsible for fooling everybody on the bona fides, the conservative bona fides of Supreme Court Justice David Souter.  Bush nominated him, he was recommended to then Chief of Staff John Sununu by New Hampshire Senator Warren Rudman.  Rudman happens to have, I think, a prominent role in the McCain campaign.  I don't know what his title is, but he's got a prominent role.  The guy that McCain is telling everybody, "Conservative judges, I want to make sure we get those guys, constructionist, strict constructionist," the guy who misled us all on David Souter happens to be a top honcho on McCain's campaign.  

What happened to the media on the court, by the way, when Souter got there, he proved himself to be among the most radical of the justices.  He has voted for every liberal activist issue to come his way.  The guy who recommended him, Warren Rudman, is a high ranks official in the McCain campaign, general chairman in fact of the McCain campaign.  Senator McCain thinks so much of Warren Rudman he's put him in charge of the overall operation.
