On another thread, if I recall correctly, it was mentioned that CNN (yeah, I know what you’re thinking) reported exit polling that indicated that in Texas more Republicans voted for Barack Redacted Obama than for Clinton.
If true, so much for Rush throwing the election.
If it's true that in Texas more Republicans voted for Barack, then he gets the pike for not being able to influence the conservative troops to vote for the Hildebeest.
Rush's problem from early on is that on his show he made the primary campaign too much about himself. For instance, scarcely a day went by that he didn't play clips from the day or night before where his name was taken in vain by some pundit or other. Then he'd go into a couple of segments-rants about these affronts. The more he did this, the more of a lightning rod he became.
He trashed McCain so much that, although he's toned it down now that McC is the nominee-presumptive, I wonder how he's going to get out of that box especially when the most dangerous man or woman in America will be McCain's opponent for seizing the most powerful office in the world.
Rush promulgated some bad political strategery this past month, in my opinion. He never established a clear, focused line of thought.
However, I remain his numero uno fan having listened to him almost daily for 18 years. He's been my mentor and guru, my beacon in times of despair, tumult and chaos. I just happen to disagree with his jumbled (and sometimes very confusing) take on this primary cycle.
I've seen a lot of posts here the past few days that charge Rush is saying what he's saying just for the sake of ratings and income.
This is so ridiculous and moronic on its face that it's scarcely worth replying to. So I won't take the time or make the effort.
