RUSH: So how many of you watched the Donald Trump debate last night on taxes and nicknames for women? How many of you saw that debate? Yeah. I have to tell you, folks, I nearly turned it off I can't tell you how many times. I was embarrassed by the whole thing. ...
The critics of Donald Trump say that he's a buffoon and he's unserious and all this. Tim Kaine last night was an embarrassment, just an abomination, and the moderator was an embarrassment last night. So much became clear, so much became obvious. One of the things, I'll just tell you right off the bat, the left is paranoid and fearful. They are terrified to let any right-leaning, mainstream conservative ideas enter the public arena. They simply will not permit it because they are afraid of it.
I submit to you that they know how extreme and out of the mainstream of American life and dreams and American ambition they are. I think they know it. In fact, I think it governs and defines how they do everything.
They can't leave it to the chance of democracy. They just can't. They have to skew the game, rig the game, corrupt the institutions. And it just gets frustrating to watch it take place. It's getting more and more frustrating to watch this happen. And while it happens, we have to be treated to the arrogant conceit of these people that they represent the majority of thinking in this country. I refuse to believe that they do.
And proof positive, if this country were gone and if we were lost, this country should have been applauding Tim Kaine last night and he should have been proclaimed the knockdown winner. But that's not what happened.

The Left cannot allow Americans to be genuinely exposed to conservative ideas - it cannot allow an honest, unfiltered debate to take place because it knows it will lose.
Now you understand why Kaine was rude, arrogant and smarmy. This is who the Left really is and they really do believe they're smarter than us and we're just too stupid to understand their true greatness.
In retrospect, Kaine's being the constant interrupter was an illuminating moment for America and it shone a light into the dark recesses of the Democratic Party and liberalism. Which most Americans find deeply repellent.
That in a word, sums up perfectly the 2016 election.
For once in a long while it was good to hear him all over the Left and he defended Trump pretty well today, lots of animation.
Why do Republicans allow themselves to be moderated by liberal lunatics?
the left is afraid of more than conservative ideas. they are afraid that their corruption and hijinks and lies will be exposed. they have to hold Justice FBI IRS etc to cover their tracks. i expect this to get quite bloody as so much is at stake - their jobs, their future prosecutions, the future of their party, etc.
She didn’t want Hillary’s server discussed.
Conservatism works.
Every time it is tried.
In the title, do you mean “Pwns”, as in “he was pwned”?
Kaine’s performance was the epitome of what ANY conversation with a Liberal becomes.
It’ like trying to kill an ant with a bowling ball. They only blabber incessantly, shout you down, continuously interrupt and lie so much that it ends up NOT being a conversation at all. It’s just like trying to reason with a 4 year old.
I can see you’ve actually tried talking to a lib. Me to. I get the same identical reaction from them Pence got from Kaine.
I went to some lib sites, and they believed Kaine won simply by being an overbearing loud mouthed jerk, which is exactly what libs are, that’s how they think they can win arguments.
later in the program, Rush made the point painfully obvious that even if Trump is elected, we will never hear a mea culpa of any sort from journalism. They will only think they have to try harder. Rush had Pence on, and had a love-fest with him over Pence’s success at the debate, and his humility and humor at the position Trump had given him and the ridiculous response of journalism to the effect that "Pence won, so Trump lost.”It could not be more obvious that the nation is ill served by moderators who, in these “debate” shows, are positioned above the candidates for POTUS (or even VP). Just think how different it would be if the “moderator” were a simple chess timer which controlled the candidates’ microphones and thereby equalized the time between the speakers. And each candidate had a laptop wired into an intranet so that both candidates would have access to an agreed set of images and statistical data and Power Point screens, and the ability to project them onto the viewers’ TV screens. It would IMHO be wonderful if that could be impressed forcefully on the FCC.
Until that happy day, Republican primary debates should be conducted on live Internet feeds so that the “moderation” would be done the way Republicans want it. If we had had that system instead of Megyn Kelly moderating, the course of the primaries would likely have been quite different.

Page down to the 5 minute video of Kaine interruptions.
PLEASE Suffer through the entire video to get the maximum amount of ire.
It’s just amazing.
Argh, I sat in a manager’s meeting listening to a big boss talk about internet memes for some 20 minutes. Unfortunately he pronounced it Mee Mee.
A face ready to be punched with a fist
I don’t bother anymore. It’s been donkey’s years since I tried that -exercise in futility!!
Every time one of them is speaking on TV, it’s apparent that nothing has changed.
For them... Smart mouth=’smart’. They live in a fact-free universe. :)
