Posted by Orin Kerr: Rush and the Republicans: http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2009_01_25-2009_01_31.shtml#1233271225
Over at [1]Obsidian Wings, Eric Martin offers an interesting post on Republican politicians falling in line behind Rush Limbaugh. I suspect the problem is that those who care most tend to love Limbaugh, and those who don't love Rush tend not to care. Given that, it takes a conservative who stands on principle and won't be bullied to take a strong public against something Rush says. And sadly, the GOP is in short supply of those these days.
