Rush Limbaugh today scoffed at the Council for a New America event Saturday featuring Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney and Eric Cantor. Limbaugh was especically unimpressed with Bush's suggestion that the GOP needs to move beyond nostalgia for days gone by.

Limbaugh: "But, I'll tell you what, whether Jeb is saying it or not -- and we've discussed this countless time on this program. There are people in the, quote, unquote, conservative movement or in the Republican Party who sure as hell want to leave Reagan behind.  Everything Reagan stood for, the man, policies, and everything else.  And it is a battle. It's an internecine battle that is going to go on in the Republican Party....Something else you have to understand, these people hate Palin, too.  They despise Sarah Palin.  They don't like her, either.  According to them, she's embarrassing....Now, everybody on this Speak to America tour has presidential perspirations.  Mitt Romney is out there.  He wants to be president again.  Jeb may someday.  Eric Cantor, some of the others, McCain, I don't think he does, but you never know.  So this is an early campaign event, 2012, presidential campaign, primary campaign with everybody there but Sarah Palin."
