Rush Limbaugh: Batman Villain Was Named Bane To Hurt Romney

The Clear Channel radio personality said in today’s broadcast that the makers of Warner Bros‘ The Dark Knight Rises are surreptitiously trying to brainwash audiences by naming the film’s villain “Bane.” You know, like Mitt Romney’s former employer: Bain Capital. Rush Limbaugh says that moviegoers — especially “a lot of brain-dead people, entertainment, the pop culture crowd” – are “gonna hear Bane in the movie and they’re gonna associate Bain. The thought is that when they start paying attention to the campaign later in the year, and Obama and the Democrats keep talking about Bain, Romney and Bain, that these people will think back to the Batman movie… There are some people who think it’ll work. Others think you’re really underestimating the American people to think that will work.” Limbaugh adds: “ You may think it’s ridiculous, I’m just telling you this is the kind of stuff the Obama team is lining up. The kind of people who would draw this comparison are the kind of people that they are campaigning to. These are the kind of people that they are attempting to appeal to.”
Batman comics introduced Bane in 1993. Actor Robert Swenson played the villain in the 1997 film Batman & Robin that starred George Clooney.
You can find the transcript on Limbaugh’s website. Here’s the audio, captured by Media Matters, a progressive watchdog group: ( Audio is on the source's site)
The commentary on ONTD is spot on and to quote the OP there:
Evil Mastermind Obama...plotting to insult Romney since 1993

They push the human race forward. While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Limbaugh obviously doesn't get out much.

Sad part is that the liberals would.
Because EVERYONE who hears Bane will immediately think about Romney.

You'd think he'd be more into comic books if that were the case, though... It honestly just means he's an ignorant old fart who will shoot any ridiculous load his feeble-minded listeners are willing to swallow...

What kind of reach...?! 
And "bane" already has a negative association ("bane of my existence")...
