His numbers have taken a hit from his playing coy with the candidates. He should have endorsed someone rather than being cute with the Santorum favoritism so he won’t offend Romney.
Lot’s of people quit listening if he didn’t have the courage to say who he was for before the FL election. Now he apologizes for saying the truth.
Pray for America

This is arguable at best. Ratings flucuations can never be pinned on one factor. For every person who stops listening because the host doesn’t endorse “my guy,” there will arrive some other listener who tunes in because the host HASN’T “sold out” to one candidate.
Rush has NEVER really endorsed candidates in the primary season and you could probably find seasons where his ratings went up.
The other thing I’d add, just from a personal perspective, is this:
Which one of these candidates is so great that they are worth alienating sections of the audience for and staking your reputation on?
I don’t see it.
Paul is loony tunes.
Romney is plain hopeless.
Newt has decades-entrenched negatives in the 60s and will likely end up back on the sofa with Pelosi for the attention it will bring him.
Santorum has already thrown Rush under the bus.
Cain seems to be a serial womanizer.
Bachmann was a walking gaffe machine.
Pawlenty?
That guy from Utah?
If I had a reputation and livelihood rooted in political analysis or observation there is NO WAY I’d go to the mat for any of these people.
Just me, though. A lifelong and diehard Palinista.
