I think base is appropiate, maybe you understand some different than I do... “base” are for me the average conservative citizens who are the backbone and fundament of the society and the Conservative movement. We work, we fight, we pay. “Base” because we are different from the Country club Pubbies, the Washington hacks and pseudo-intellectual RINOs. It’s simple semantics... base is for me synoymous with backbone, bedrock, fundament... Rush listeners are the base of Conservatism...
“...Rush listeners are the base of Conservatism...”
THAT is RIGHT! The Base IS the right and Conservative.
Some here haven’t listened enough to Rush to know that simple truth. Rush speaks to the base.
