I believe this is true. Rush has been sounding increasingly defeated. For years he's promised his listeners that he would tell them when he thought it was time to panic. He hasn't said that it is yet, but it's hard not to hear the defeat in his voice and the content of his show.
Another one who surprised me this past week was Dennis Miller, whose radio program I listen to for an hour or so on most days.
Miller, who describes himself as a fiscal conservative and a social libertarian, was an early endorser and active campaigner for Herman Cain in 2012. When Romney won the nomination, Miller campaigned hard for him.
During one of his shows last week, Miller declared that it doesn't matter who the candidates for either party are in 2016, a democrat will win the presidency. He said it's over, and he won't be talking about politics much anymore because there's no point.
There's a foul, chill wind blowing.
Miller is correct; and so are you.
I don't mean to be cynical, but he is just waiting for his Gulfstream 650 to be completed for the final EIB broadcast during flight as he heads for New Zealand...
Yes I think it is that bad, don't ask me about my conversation with a financial planner that gets it this weekend...
