Basically, Rush is the foundation for many of those who followed. I think he still has the best arguments, and the best staff. That being said, I deeply appreciate and respect many of the other talk show hosts in this thread. It's like we have the RATS in a trap now. If they don't get pounded on something by Rush, other hosts jump on them and get them. And if THEY miss something, FreeRepublic DOESN'T!
Rush Limbaugh was the pioneer of conservative, or Republican at least, talk radio. He was great in Sac when he developed this format and he has gotten greater as he has progressed. He has made it his life's work to climb into the Liberal Socialits mind and to understand the political fallout. Those who listen to Rush on a daily basis will learn and be educated. He is still the King.
