Was watching Fox and Chris Wallace who featured the new ABC poll saying Hillary is up at 50% to Trump's 38%.
At the same time they ignore 4 national polls indicating Trump is up.
Even at $3.99, Beck is in the Looney Bin, not the grab bin. :)
Yes. I thought that was a weird statement also.
Yep. But there are those on here who will tell you rush is anti Trump!! I’ve heard him being nothing but supportive. I don’t think a lot of these people actually listen to Rush.
“No. Being behind does not get out the vote. Human nature wants to be on the band wagon. Have ALWAYS had my doubts about Conway.”
It would have been much more helpful for her to say something like: “The polls that we trust the most show the race is very close and we expect to prevail on Election Day.” This seems like an unforced error on her part.
Exactly. Claiming to be fair and balanced is nothing but a marketing technique, much like all the other lies you hear in advertising.
Doesn’t matter if Trump is down 30 points. We must get out and vote and not be discouraged by what we’re seeing. The polls, in the past, were much accurate within the last week or two. This time, they may be BS all the way up and during election day to try to supress Trump voters who hasn’t yet voted.
Agree. Or a self forced error motivated by duplicity.
they don’t come out for mid terms like they do in a Presidential year that’s no surprise
Rush has been NOTHING but supportive for Trump since the nomination.

So just now-2pm est- rush spent a half hour saying how he hopes the polls are wrong because Trump is behind, even though Trump is ahead or within the MOE in most polls. rush may despise cankles, but he is NO FRIEND to Trump.
I can't stand to listen to the guy anymore.
LOL.... I don't know what you're expecting. Rush spent a great deal of time destroying the credibility of the ABC poll showing Hillary ahead by 12.
He talked about over-sampling. He talked about the wikileak's released Podesta email that described HOW the Dems should over-sample their 'media polls'... (Ie: NOT their internal polls).
Rush got burned in 2012, when he predicted that the polls were wrong due to over-sampling Democrats. On election day, WAY MORE Democrats showed up... the polls were right. Rush doesn't want to see a repeat of that. I don't think we will, since Obama is not on the ballot this time.
Rush also talked about how "all the other signs point to enthusiasm on the Trump side"... and compared what he's seeing to 2000, and 1980. Times, when Republicans won, even though the polls were against them.
Rush is pulling for Trump... as effectively as ANYONE on the air waves today. Some folks just cannot be made happy, I guess.... :-(
", I don't think I have ever seen anything like we are witnessing today where our side has already conceded defeat.
Our side has given up. Our side has concluded that we are going to lose and in a massive landslide, and they are already making plans for recriminations after the election. A bunch of people you never heard of are preparing to sort out the blame and responsibility for those who made this all possible. And I'll give you three guesses who they are zeroing in on. That's right, my friends, your beloved host is to blame for all of this. Your beloved host is to blame for the other conservative hosts doing what they're doing.
I'm to blame for Trump being a candidate. I am to blame for it all, and they're all lining up getting prepared to exonerate themselves, of course. I'm talking about Republicans; I'm talking about conservatives, people that are quasi-conservatives. Think tank people you've never heard of are lining up now, already conceding that it's over, conceding that it's a landslide. They are conceding we've lost the House. They're conceding they've lost the Senate.
It's almost like they want that to happen. I've never seen anything like this before. But we're in the midst of it, and for all that that is worth and while that's all going on, there's a whole lot of people that have not given up, mainly you. There are a whole lot of people not willing to concede any of this yet because there's too much that doesn't make any sense, as we will explore in great detail on the program today.
You have problems with comprehension.
Rush is simply stating REALITY. He's telling you, and everyone... what IS. After all, he is the "Mayor of Realville". He's describing they way many Republicans are acting.
He's NOT agreeing with them. In fact, he spent the rest of the show explaining why this thinking is WRONG.
you may not want to believe it, but... I assure you. MANY establishment R's DO blame Rush.... because he didn't come out AGAINST Trump.
I think Rush preferred Cruz. I think he knows, and liked Rubio.... but, Trump NEVER was "against" Trump. Rather, from the very beginning, he was supportive. RINO squishes hate that Trump didn't come out strongly against Trump... as they did.
Now...you may be right about these RINO's not having two connected brain cells.
Sorry... RUSH was “never against Trump”...
lol on a side note: I find it pretty funny that you use a RUSH-invented term in your personal description: “Drive by media”.
Rush had TRUMP on the show today....
I guess, you hated the way he was treated?
