Huh??? Listen, I've been as ticked at Rush as anyone, but what he DID in the first ten minutes was to explain how and WHY the latest thing that "Newt supported health care mandates as recently as 2009!" is misleading, how everyone at the Heritage Foundation was for it then, and why -- if anything, he powerfully HELPED Newt. I hope Newt's folks are listening and apply Rush's advice IMMEDIATELY to Newt's campaign.
And in fact, he came out pretty strongly, in his covert way, against Romney -- just now telling listeners that if they think Romney's going to go after Obama with the same aggressiveness that he's going after Newt, they've got another think coming.

That’s not what he was doing. Imo what he was doing was covering his a. Rush is a realist.
