I like what somebody said, on another website, Rush should accept Sleep Train’s competitor’s ASAP.

He's not going to do that. Dale Carlsen was one of Rush's original sponsors in Sacramento in the late 80s and then continued as a sponsor locally when Rush went national (also Tom Sullivan). Carlsen and Sleep Train stood by Rush back when he COULD have been forced off the air for smaller controversies. It's why my jaw hit the floor when I heard he dumped Rush last week. It's not like this is the first time they've been faced with this kind of uproar. Of course Rush is hurt and angered however I don't think he's going to proactively go after them. Their business is going to suffer just by their absence on his show. I suspect that Rush who is a better man, may take him back somewhere down the road.

not a good idea, the message to sponsors should be-- if you're going to be a coward and bail over BS liberal made up controversies than you have no business sponsoring the show. period.

Allowing them, or anyone else back in, will only encourage more of this in the future.
