I finally just turned him off, today. He spent the entire part of the show I heard explaining why he doesn’t endorse. And how much it upsets people and how he doesn’t understand, yada, yada, yada......It was boring.

Today's show was pretty much a wash. I had it on in the background all morning, and I was torn between two observations.

On one hand, Rush made it All About Him. Like we really care!

On the other hand, the MSM has made "it" an Awful Lot About Rush (not all, but a lot), describing things he's said about Newt and Romney in ways that Rush disagrees with.

I'm still glad for Rush, though, in pointing out things that need to be pointed out. He's eloquently defended Newt on many charges, and just as eloquently slammed Romney.

On balance, I think Rush was 100 PERCENT CORRECT when he said his endorsement wouldn't sway the election either way, and frankly, although I have often wished he'd just endorse "my guy" over the years, I totally respect and admire Rush's respect for ME and for his audience, in that he doesn't presume to tell us WHO to vote for. Rush screws up a LOT -- I think he's flirted with downright betrayal by not going after Romney with the same gusto he goes after OTHER anti-conservatives -- but his steadfast refusal to presume to tell me who to vote for, goes a long way to redeeming many faults, in my book.
