The Queen Bee Shows Her Stinger

by Rush Limbaugh - Mar 17,2008

RUSH: Nancy Pelosi was on Stephanopoulos’ show yesterday. The Queen Bee shows her stinger on ABC. They actually taped this on Friday, aired it yesterday. Stephanopoulos says, ‘It’s just impossible that they’re going to come together on a single ticket? How can you be so sure that they will not come together?’

PELOSI: I’m just absolutely sure, I just know it. I just know it.

STEPHANOPOULOS: But based on what?

PELOSI: I’ve been in politics a long time, and I —

STEPHANOPOULOS: Forty years, right?

PELOSI: — study it very carefully, and I think that each one of them will make a great top of the ticket, and they will have — we will have a dream ticket that will contain one of them.

RUSH: Whoa! The Queen Bee shows her stinger. There will be no dream ticket that contains both Obama and Hillary, and she is certain of it. Stephanopoulos, ‘How can you be so sure?’ ‘I just know. I just do.’ Don’t doubt me, the Queen Bee is saying. Stephanopoulos says, ‘Well, you’ve said the superdelegates ought not be dispositive. What do you mean by that?’

PELOSI: Here’s what I said. What I said was, if the votes of the superdelegate overturn the — what happened in the elections, it would be harmful to the Democratic Party. It’s a delegate race. In other words, if one wins the Electoral College and one wins the popular vote, guess who’s the president of the United States? The way the system works is that the delegates choose the nominee.

RUSH: No, no, no, Nancy, you don’t know your own party rules. The superdelegates are there precisely to make sure that the idiot voters in the Democrat Party don’t screw up. She’s laying down a marker here, because when she says if the votes of the superdelegates overturn what happened in the elections, it would be harmful to the Democrat Party, but it’s a delegate race, what she’s saying is that it’s over, and Barack has won, and if they overturn it for Hillary, it’s going to be bad for the Democrat Party.
