My daughter has been virtually apolitical all her young adulthood(now 29). afer voting for the first time recently, I got her commitment to vote for Bush in 2004 solely upon her trust in my recommendation. Those with similarly politically uncommitted (and uninformed?)offspring should try to do the same. Of course it would be better for her to reach her own conclusions, but I'm thankful for the influence I can still exert.

Agree with you re Rush. The visceral hatred for Rush by the Left proves he's been hitting the mark for years. Privately they know he's much more than an ineffective buffoon, but rather, has their number. They are wrong in thinking that millions of conservatives take their marching orders from Rush. I often reach independent conclusions that I later hear echoed by Rush. Just parallel thought reaching like conclusions. I'm sure I am not unique. I'd like to have more young people listen to him. But how?

My dad was a loveable old fuzz bull, and very conservative. Just based on the way my parents raised me, and their views, I started voting republican after I had voted for Bill Clinton and all the lies came out. That's when I REALLY started to listen to Rush Limbaugh.

Not sure how to get more young people to listen to Rush. They're so hard to pin down. I started listening to him since 1990 or so, when I was in high school. I remember watching him on the Donahue Show and really liking him. Besides I was a big Clarence Thomas supporter and thought it was cool that CT officiated Rush's wedding. Rush is a gentleman and not as 'brash' as other radio personalities.
