I'll give you another reason that seems likely regardless of Iran: $5/gal gasoline this summer. If Iran blows, then figure $6+. Game Over.
Rush is all about Rush. He is mostly thinking of his ratings. He stays luke warm on candidates, so not to anger their supporters. If you haven't noticed, he always plays both ends. He likes to be seen as neutral, and mostly attacks Obama from a strong Conservative position.
Most all Republican candidates are off limits for strong criticism. We will see, if Rush finally takes a strong stand for a candidate, but I am not betting on it.
As the internet becomes more and more the source for news, the elites become more desperate to control it. That much of the public backed hacker group Anonymous’s attack against the government after the megaupload thing has got.to be scaring them right now. They had to think that at least the left, and much more of the law and order believing right would condemn that. The sympathy the government received in the quarters it came from was tepid at best, even among people who would never violate copyrights. The veil has been torn away.
Good point.
Awesome, thanks.
We can legitimately say that recent polls, as of today, show Newt running as strong against obama as Romney. That is a huge development.
Romney has NO arguments left. His inability and unwillingness to defend his Bain record has hurt him, also.
Agreed on each and every point, PF
Looking forward to tonight’s debate... there’s a reason Romney tried to wiggle out of them lol
I don’t agree that Hannity is a moderate. But he seems that way sometimes cuz he is playing to ratings and is stifled by Fox News and the ultimate desire to keep his job.
What bothers me about Rush is that he seems to always be on defense. I love his views on everything Conservative but now as in ‘08, he’s reacting to Obama and his actions constantly and somewhat frantically.
Notice how many times all of these talk show hosts use the word Obama.
And lately, it seems like he is all over the place with his analyses.
The main points of most of his shows can be summed up in one paragraph.
I still love Maharushi but my main go to guy is and always has been Levin. He says it like it is, doesn’t give a rat’s arse what anyone thinks of him(unlike his buddy Hannity) and is a core Constitutionalist and a brilliant scholar and teacher of it.
I just got his new book Ameritopia from Amazon. Book reviews anyone?
It's a real possibility to me, that someone like Ross Perot will come along (maybe even the same initials as Perot) that will steal the conservative base away from a "flawed" GOP candidate, and Obama wins with an anemic 40-42%
When you see the MSM starting to focus on a "marginal" candidate and comment on his "originality and energy capturing the imaginations of the voters", you will know the fix is in. Likewise, the GOP candidates will be encouraged to go negative on each other - the more wounded the primary winner, the better.
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom".
And we NEED Newt to NOT just "lean not on his own understanding", but to also seek God's wisdom--because without that we are ALL (whether we want to admit it or not) DOOMED!
IOW--PRAY FOR NEWT! Because I--again REALLY!--believe he is our best hope for bringing down the Obamanation!
Me too—has been for years.
Two simple reasons for Newt’s SC victory:
#1 The people loathe Obama and how he has wrecked our country
#2 The people loathe the main stream media for protecting Obama and the Leftists.
And Newt articulates this loathing better than anyone
Nothing more; nothing less than this
It's about a 1:20 min video. Sorry if already posted.
Santorum will stay in to mess it up for Newt. It is likely a certainty that Mitt's people are begging Santorum to stay in. In the end, little Rick always goes with the establishment.
I hope Rick stays in and both he and Mitt get crushed.
Good analysis. I have absolutely no doubt that Rush is a hard core Conservative. I think Rush knows and trusts that the Conservatives will mostly on their own gravitate to the "clearest" conservative in the race.
Rush rightly wouldn't want the media to use his direct endorsement to say Candidate X won because of his influence.
It will be interesting to see how he weaves it this week.
Rush has always said that his job is not to win elections, but to do the best radio show he can, and get the best ratings and ad rates.
This Romney music video is pretty comical

But being a very modest soul, he does forget to engage in any self-promotion, always forgetting to include his ping list request.
So, please, if you've enjoyed this latest post of his, as well as others, do FReepmail him and ask to be included on his ping list.
Thank you..
