Sean Hannity ***THANK YOU*** Thread
11/4/04 | Self

Posted on 11/04/2004 11:26:30 AM PST by NYC Republican

I wanted to thank Mr. Hannity on a FANTASTIC performance throughout the election.

He's the reason I started listening to talk radio several years back, and was an enormous source of inspiration during a really difficult afternoon on Tuesday.

Discounting the exit polls, Sean's passionate pleas to get out and vote, having this garbage poll data in front of him and not dwelling on it, made the difference, IMO... He was fantastic... He could have accepted a Skerry victory, and that would have made his show more valuable to him (an easy target to knock each day), but he chose to take one last stand, and it worked... Anyone listening to Sean that day witnessed one of the turning events on radio - someone who, in the face of mass adversity, came out with his battle cry, and succeeded...

When Rush started to waver - on Monday and Tuesday, he seemed really down and docile, Sean's optimism really came out...

NO one has worked harder for conservative causes. NO one has more influence (#2 radio show, coupled with FOX News, surpasses even Rush). NO one has worked harder at educating people on the issues, converting soccer moms, and now, security moms. NO one has been more of a President Bush supporter than Mr. Hannity.

He has the guts to bombard the Clintons, call out liberals on their lies, FULLY support the SwiftVets - not only on radio - where others like Rush, Laura, and Savage also stood behind them, but on his TV program. When everyone else was afraid to touch the race-baiting ads, Sean NEVER waivered- he played the commercials on his FOX TV program...

Those who belittle him (he wrote a book? he's an intellectual light-weight... etc) - save it, and shove it. This man has done a fantastic service to our country, and we should appreciate the fact that he's on OUR side.

Thank you very much Mr. Hannity.

Sean Hannity, Rush and the Swiftvets.

3 workhorses without whom it could be called into doubt whether Bush could have won.

That doesn't take guts, just intelligence.

Sean was fully panicked Tuesday. He all but begged people to vote after reading the exit polls.

I do think he does a good job and has a good show.

I second that. I didn't connect with Hannity when he first hit the airwaves in Dallas but he has an infectious optimism.

This thread is NOT meant to understate the great work done by others - Hewitt, Rush, Laura, Mark Levin (I'm purposely excluding Savaga, who was a disaster IMO) - they've also been great... I just felt Sean's last-minute GOTV effort, along with traveling to the battleground states the whole week, was amazing.

Hear Hear ...... Hannity was awesome. It was depressing when they came out with those early exit polls. But Hannity stepped up and rallied us conservatives ...... just get out and vote. And boy did we!!!

Don't forget Hugh Hewitt. He dispelled the early exit poll screw up before anyone else, and he was on till 2am MST. I encourage everyone to check out his blog and even listen online or on your local radio station if you get the chance.

Hannity can be as annoying as hell, and is not very good at skewering intelligent adversaries, but he sure did a good job in getting out the vote.

I agree with you. I think after his second book came out he became a bit too self-promoting but he was clearly and specifically on-message Tuesday afternoon.

Thank you Sean!

I'll fourth or fifth that. I do think the tour had an effect on the election, energizing the base even more. So a big THANK YOU goes out.

I disagree- take it from a personal perspective. Sean lives in NY, as do the Clintons... Sean works in NYC- attacking someone who is so revered in NYC exposes him to the potential of great physical danger- to him or his young kids/wife... He's not some talk show host in Iowa- he's in the heart of Manhattan... He wouldn't be the first, would he?

Indeed,

Mr. Hannity, RUSH, the Swifties, all proud and true veterans, the everyday hardworking family loving Americans who came through in the pinch.

THANK YOU!!!!!

I found out about FR from listening to Sean. I am so glad I found this place. I do not think that I would have survived this election without Rush, Sean and FR!!
