Rush has been one of the greatest forces for conservatism, but when push comes to shove, we learn that he is a Romney type man.
These last few years many of us are starting to realize why conservatism keeps having so many near misses, so many almosts, decade after decade, after decade, after decade, after decade, after decade.
It isn’t just near misses, we have all seen when one of our sure victories suddenly dies a mysterious death, and we are left scratching our heads about how it died when we controlled everything.
You must not have listened to him today...Rush ripped a few new ...
Rush has been an operative of the GOP establishment since his first broadcast from Sacramento.
Sometimes that has worked out OK for us, but those times are pure random crap shoots. We have to stop leaning on imagined heroes, and get motivated at the true grass roots level. That means lots of door to door rambling. We did it for Reagan, after the bitter defeat in ‘64, we took Sacramento in a storm in ‘66.
It can be done, but a false hero will leave you in freefall. Sarah Palin didn’t deliver this time, but she didn’t stab us in the back either. I think she has to remain our focal point.
