Rush Limbaugh did not mention Sarah Palin not running for president

Posted on 10/06/2011 12:05:01 PM PDT by Politics4US

Why do you think Rush didn't bring up Palin's announcement that she's not running for president?

He has said he did not think she is running.

The Steve Jobs story trampled the Palin story today.

The decision not to run is a personal story, unlike the Chris Christie story where he is being courted by liberal Republicans. If you notice, Rush made THAT the point of his discussion, not the fact that Christie made a decision.

You make an excellent point. I was wondering why myself, your explanation makes sense.

I would not be surprised to hear Sarah on Rush’s show soon, perhaps tomorrow. That would explain why there was no mention today.

Palin’s decision not to run was also a news story.

Uhh...Maybe because it was a non-story?

Just a guess.

A future appearance doesn’t mean he can’t mention the story today.

How was it a non-story, when there were many threads about it on this board, and most of the other hosts talked about it?

Because Rush’s audience is the most informed audience out there and he assumes they already know she’s not running and why. It was a personal decision and I’m sure Rush respects it and assumes we would respect it as well. What more is there to say?

no, it doesn’t but if there is a planned appearance in the next day or two, he might choose to keep the topic fresh.

Just as I was never a "Palinista," I'm certainly not going to go the other direction and attack her. All along I think (can't prove) that she was going to base her decision on testing the waters by the bus tour and movie; and that she privately polled after each; and that the #s among women and independents had not moved from their high negatives. So I think she made a sound calculation that she probably wouldn't get more than low double-digits in a primary race and that it would therefore be a little embarrassing.

That to me doesn't mean she's "in it for the dough," but that unlike Jon Huntsman or Ron Paul, she can actually read a tea leaf.

Because Rush only wanted to talk about Apple and his hero Steve Jobs... the man is obsessed and dedicated his entire show to the worship of his favorite passion... apple and his favorite entrepreneur... Jobs.

I can't speak for the FReepers who posted thread about that, but the way I see it, she wasn't running yesterday, and she's still not running today.

Non-story.

He talks about stuff daily that’s not news. Any candidate announcing that they’re not running is news.
