Rush sat out the GOP primary, until it was about too late.

I still believe we could have beat hillary even with the loser mccain heading the ticket.

Operation chaos, while it did not decide the primaries, did keep Hillary in the game longer than she otherwise would have been. Rush never encouraged anyone to vote for Obama.

Even the View ladies talked of it.

What adorable...and extremely gifted...little girls!
Thank you so much for the link.

As to the weather, over the weekend we went from 20 degrees above normal to 10 degrees below normal in the span of 48 hours.

It’s enough to make one very cranky. ;o)

Even 10 degrees below normal would be sweltering for Houston... sorry you had drastic changes though.
