Inside Obama's Limbaugh scam

David Brooks (see the previous entry) dutifully repeated the White House line that Rush Limbaugh is the face of the Republican party.

Details have emerged of Team Obama's plan, hatched by Democratic strategists James Carville and Stanley Greenberg, to try to make Limbaugh the face of the GOP in the minds of American voters.

Michael Steele, regrettably, apologized for his repudiation of Rush the other day. Maybe Steele shouldn't have attacked a segment of his own constituency to begin with. But having done so, he played into the hands of the White House by apologizing to Rush- thereby granting legitimacy to the Carville-Greenberg line.
