But then Ellison laid into him for the statehouse seats, governorships, and other losses that have wrecked the Democrat Party. Ellison says the losses &#8212; which are over a thousand seats &#8212;\u00a0threaten the Obama legacy, and Obama \u201ccan\u2019t say he wasn\u2019t a part of those losses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now, Ellison wasn\u2019t finished, either. He criticized Obama for not being a good party leader. He pointed out that in 2010 \u2013 a redistricting year \u2013 that Obama should have campaigned vigorously, but he was barely visible. And in 2014, again Obama was nowhere to be found; Democrats had record low turnout. \u201cHe\u2019s great at getting himself elected,\u201d Ellison said, but not so great at working closely with Congress. Or raising money for state races.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-228381\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/00-Rush-Morning-Update.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"137\" \/>That\u2019s all true, Mr. Ellison. But since you\u2019re pointing fingers, here\u2019s a finger for you: If any other president had been as self-serving as Obama, you Democrats would have let him have it. At the time. Not later, once he was out of power.<\/p>\n<p>But, nooo! For eight years, you protected Obama from any and all criticism.<\/p>\n<p>And we all know why. You, Mr. Ellison, are just as much to blame as Obama.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Well, the Democrat National Committee\u2019s Deputy Chairman is doing what the rest of the party won\u2019t.
