The Paul-bots aren't going to be happy about this.

On Fox's On the Record Wednesday, conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh said, "I think right now anybody other than Ron Paul could beat Obama if the election were tomorrow – easily" (video follows with transcript):


GRETA VAN SUSTEREN, HOST: If you think someone who’s moderate cannot beat Obama or should not be selected by the Republican Party, who is the most conservative who fits the bill of what you think is a Republican who can beat Obama?

RUSH LIMBAUGH: Well, I think, again now, if the election were held today. You see, I know that since I do not subscribe or practice conventional wisdom that my answer here is going to discredit me with all the, you know, professional political experts. But I think right now anybody other than Ron Paul could beat Obama if the election were tomorrow – easily.
