***update: Michael J. Fox responds on CBS: he was overmedicated, not acting***

Brian Maloney has a thorough round-up on the Rush Limbaugh vs. Michael J. Fox battle.

As expected, the MSM is going bananas over Limbaugh’s pointed commentary. Liberal celebrities stride onto the political stage with an imperial sense of entitlement–expecting to fling barbed criticism at their opponents while invoking immunity against any tough scrutiny of their positions or motives.

If unhinged Limbaugh-haters want to make this election a referendum on the conservative talk radio right vs. the Hollywood left, Nancy Pelosi should toss her measuring tape and drape fabric in the trash can pronto. You will lose.

Latest poll shows the Missouri race about even:

Another day and another poll shows the Missouri Senate race remains a tossup.

Republican Sen. Jim Talent is leading Democrat Claire McCaskill by 48 percent to 45 percent among likely voters, according to a Los Angeles Times/Bloomberg poll released Wednesday. The survey of 593 likely voters was conducted Oct. 20-23 by the Los Angeles Times and has a sampling error margin of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

A different poll by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research Inc. for McClatchy Newspapers and MSNBC, released earlier this week, showed 46 percent of likely voters supporting McCaskill and 43 percent backing Talent.
