As expected, Rush Limbaugh strapped himself behind the wheel of <a href="http://green.autoblog.com/2009/09/18/pretty-in-pics-lenos-electric-focus-gets-a-face-specs/">Ford's specially-prepped electric Focus</a> hatchback as part of Jay Leno's Green Car Challenge last night. We don't mean to brag or anything (well, maybe just a little), but <a href="http://green.autoblog.com/2009/09/22/rush-limbaugh-vs-the-electric-car-on-lenos-green-car-challenge/">we totally predicted the outcome</a> way in advance of the actual running.<br />
<br />
No, Rush did not beat <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/09/20/video-drew-barrymore-takes-jay-lenos-green-car-challenge/">Drew Barrymore's time</a>. Yes, he did in fact take out Al Gore... twice. Also Ed Begley Jr. In any case, Limbaugh claims to have enjoyed his time driving a silent electric car in anger and couldn't care less that his time was negatively impacted by aiming for Gore and Begley. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/09/25/video-rush-runs-lenos-green-car-challenge-takes-out-al-gore-t/">Click past the break</a> to watch the video.<br />
