The major problem with the way Rush is doing it is the fact he is so toxic - notably with teachers, liberal parents, dems in general.

Yeah, maybe he should be more in the "middle" -- you know, like McCain and Romney. Or Christie.

Yeah, that's it, compromise with our benevolent esteemed dem opponents, stop the name-calling, don't be so anti-abortion, quit admiring those old white slave-owners that wrote the Constitution, support Obamacare (the 'law of the land'), reach out to the other side -- just like the dems do, including those lib teachers, lib parents, Nancy Pelosi, Dingy Harry Reid, Obama, etc etc.

And while you're at it double down on your DNC contributions.

that isn't what I was saying at all -- if you could have delayed your knee-jerk reaction and thought about it before answering.

The problem is Rush and the demonization of him wherever there are dems, which automatically limits the effectiveness of this project. I didn't say that demonization was warranted and no one expects him to compromise his beliefs, but if he had been a little more subtle and less in the public's face the project might have been more effective.

The art of persuasion is first and foremost figuring out the path of least resistance to your listener's heart. Rush's pic on the cover of a book and himself as the main character makes it all that much more difficult. I am not saying that is right, I am saying that it the way it is. There is a big difference between the two.
