His show assistant, Dawn, used to post here pretty regularly until late 2003 when the Natnl Enquirer broke the story about Rush’s drug addiction. A small, but vicious pack of hyenas was ripping him apart on every thread. It was as ugly as any of the 2012 primary threads became. Dawn was initially trying to counter some of the worst of it, saying that Rush deserved better than the depths of hatred that got spewed here by some. I remember her last post being something about how she couldn’t subject herself to such viciousness and hatred anymore and was logging off. It was pretty sad.
An amazing anecdote. I wonder why I don’t remember any of that.
Just out of curiosity, what was her FReeper screen name?
