That would not be a surprise. I do not think Rush has ever endorsed anyone in a contested primary.

What difference does it make who Rush endorses?

He has very little influence anyway and no, I’m not happy about that.

Rush didn’t hurt Huckabee in Iowa and he sure didn’t hurt McCain in Florida. Both of these candidates pretended they never heard of Rush Limbaugh when queried about it. And no wonder. The people who vote for McCain and Huckabee don’t listen to Rush Limbaugh.

Which is not to say that Rush has no influence. He certainly does. It’s just that I feel like I’ve gotten a little reality check. The people who listen to Rush are simply NOT a majority of the voters in this country.

We are not even a majority of Republicans but maybe about 50% of Republicans.

I listen to Rush iterate over and over that conservatism works every time it’s tried. Well nobody wants to try it. Thompson tried it and nobody listened. I would softly suggest Rick Santorum tried it to no avail. For sure Huckabee or McCain ain’t going to go conservative.

And why should they? Both of them made the closest thing to a conservative, Fred Thompson, sit in their dust.

On another note, has anybody seen that line waiting to hear Obama speak? Come on guys. Nobody’s stood in lines like that for a presidential candidate since...well since I don’t know when.

And Obama sure ain’t a conservative either.

Hey, I’m cool. I can handle it. It’s just time for me, and perhaps yon own wise selves, to face reality.
