I think it's likewise with Governor (and soon-to-be President) Sarah Palin. There's no doubt in my mind that she relies Free Republic to take the pulse of real Americans.

Rush Limbaugh just spent about 5 minutes talking about Free Republic as being the forerunner to the TEA Party and a group rejecting the progressive leadership of the Republican Party during the Clinton administration. Very positive.
I’m sure either he or his staff read this site. I’ve seen opinions (even an occasional one of my own) voiced on his show. One or two times, coincidence but not everything. I joined FreeRepublic after I found out it was the stellar work of the people here that busted Dan Rather.
Adult conversations happen here...and wingnuttiness is kept in check for the most part. Better than any other lace I’ve seen, anyway.
As a Freeper, I am flattered. Rush has the ability to state things on the airwaves better than anyone of us could do individually. More than grateful to have him in our corner.
What is very subtle is his measured tone, his careful choice of words, and verbal pentameter. He hasn't been this focused or measured verbally since he came out of rehab. He is choosing his words very carefully....
Yes something is afoot...
Thanks for the pic! Now that is a manly man!
There is no other commentator I can listen to for 3 hours but RUSH!
Yes, he did, and I heard it!
wahooo!
I also (stupidly) kept refreshing the browser on my phone to see if anyone at FreeRepublic brought it up.

Probably targeted by the IRS and threatened with shutdown.
They’re busy elsewhere crapping on Sarah Palin or George Zimmerman. They’ll get here as soon as they can....
I was there in DC for the March For Justice, most fun I have ever had! The only thing I regret about the weekend is there were no name tags with our FR name on it.
How about Buckland, the Bush Air National Guard letter with the superscript and Dan Rather finally being fired!
I watched THAT live right here! What a night, what a coup!
Barbara Olsen. Tony Snow...a lot of FReepers in the good old days. But that was then and this is now.
You too, boomopl?! I carried a Colorado flag, and I'm from FLA!
It was just great to be in the parade with JimRob leading............................................................................... FRegards

William, you sound as old and creaky as me. Yes, I remember those days; I cried the night Goldwater lost. My husband and I were so innocent and naive, we didn't have a term for "Rino" in those days. The main ones that stabbed Goldwater in the back, over and over, were Rockefeller, William Scranton, Gov. of Pennsylvania, and George Romney, Gov. of Michigan. Nobody talks about this last one, but Mitt definitely inherited his liberalism.
I don't think so, necessarily. He's all the time talking about not being invited to "their" special dinners and such. Just cuz he makes alot of money doesn't mean he's one of "them". He makes money off of *us* and I will tell you he is just about the only one in the MSM I will listen to daily (although I missed today's show). He may be beholden to "them" for his paycheck - but he says a lot of good stuff that all people need to hear. I'm grateful because Rush Limbaugh helped turn me around.
He made me THINK.
I am proud to call myself a Freeper since the Clintoon days. I think it was 1999. Holy cow.... That’s 14 years.
We marched around about 4 times I think, what a wonderful time with Great people.
