Anyone that listens to Rush knows that he is going to go for the most Conservative candidate out there.....obviously, in this race it is Thompson. But unfortunately, Fred is running 4th in S. Carolina and Florida according to those stupid polls....and I don’t think Fred has been to florida yet...we started voting Monday! I think it’s too late for Fred.....I really don’t think he wants it that bad....

I am convinced Rush, as he has said, is ok with three of the candidates. If he were to throw his support behind any one of them now, and they don’t get the nomination, then the nominee would be the 2nd choice and would be damaged. Rush is right to wait until after the nominee is chosen to throw his support to that one so as to give him the BEST possible chance to beat Hilary or Obama.

SC is irrelevant. They have no delegates. This is like the pre-season. Get over it.
If you listen to Rush you will know he is not going to endorse. Get over it.

** He badly wants to throw the full weight of conservatism behind that candidate. He so desperately wants to that his teeth probably hurt. He’s waiting, waiting for someone to take the lead. Get noticed. He’s waiting for someone to give him the go ahead to cream the opposition. **
Come on, Rush. Put it on the line for Fred!

Wonderful editorial and I have sensed the same from Rush. I think he would be happy with either Thompson or Hunter, but knows that Hunter simply doesn’t have the name recognition and without that he can’t gain any momentum.

I think if we were coming off a Jimmy Carter presidency Fred would fare well against Hillary or Obama. I don’t see that happening now.

Rush is not going to endorse anyone right now. He does nsot have to. If listeners cannot figure out his message; they probably would not agree with his choice, if the did. And for sure; by all he has said re Conservtive values; agree that Fred stands first. Mitt pulls a second, IMHO.
He realizes there is no perfect Conservative package but that choosing a 'Dem favorite' is NOT the answer.
/That said; great writing, Chris./
