As far as Dean goes, if you feel that having a lunatic shouting Rush's name is equivalent to having a "devastating effect" it's your opinion.

Dean was the Dem front runner at the time, so it had far more weight than if Kucinich or some other fringe candidate had been saying it.

But the Dems trying to overturn the Fairness Doctrine during the early nineties is the proof needed to illustrate Rush's impact on political thought. The Democrats were aiming their sights on him and no other conservative personality at the time. The liberals knew that he was destroying their monopoly on the free media. For that, he deserves a spot in the Conservative Hall of Fame.

"For that, he deserves a spot in the Conservative Hall of Fame."

No doubt about it, he has done some amazing things in the past - and hopefully he will do more in the future ...

... until his present is straightened out though, he would do better for himself and the conservatives if he kept his head down - I think he realizes that more now after the latest court defeat.
