AND NOW... amidst billowing clouds of fragrant, aromatic first- and second-hand premium cigar smoke... it is time for... that harmless, lovable little fuzz ball, the highly-trained broadcast specialist, having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have, from behind the golden EIB microphone, firmly ensconced in the prestigious Attila-The-Hun chair at the Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies, serving humanity simply by showing up, and he’s not retiring until every American agrees with him - do NOT doubt him - with shrieks of joy at the mere mention of his name (that’s Rush, for those in Rio Linda),the Mandarin of Talk Radio, with talent on loan from G-d, at the cutting-edge of societal evolution, with half his brain tied behind his back — just to make it fair, the all-knowing, all-caring, all-sensing, all-feeling, all-concerned Maha-Rushie! America’s anchorman, truth detector, and doctor of democracy. A real man, a living legend, a way of life. Commander-in-Chief of U.S. Operation Chaos. Chief Waga-Waga El Rushbo of the El Conservo Tribe. Chief of the Patriotism Police. Leader of the Conservative Movement. A Weapon of Mass Instruction. El Rushbo (a little Spanish lingo, there). He is the man who is running America (you know it and I know it). He knows the Democrats like every square inch of his glorious naked body. He is ready to do what he was born to do — host. Get ready to what you were born to do — listen. And post your comments on the Rush Limbaugh LIVE Radio Thread.

Lincoln did not have 20 less states and millions of less votes.

[Just mythoughts]

How does one know when a thread gets pulled? The thread where I came across the link is still up. Obviously I did not link the pulled thread. Is there a bin where one can go to find pulled threads?

HEY RUSH....I AM SICK OF YOU! ITS VERY SIMPLE....THE DELEGATES ARE EXPECTED TO REPRESENT THE VOTERS. IS THIS A REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC OR NOT??????????

[rodguy911]

Greath catch nutmeg. Just goes to show no matter how good a broadcaster you are if you talk enough you will screw up! You caught his screw-ups, good job.

[nutmeg]

Rush should not use Lincoln as example - the country then went to war after Lincoln become POTUS.

Rush failing to mention that BRIBERY of GOP delegates is allowed per the RNC. About a week and a half ago, Univ. of Virginia's Larry Sabato and Tucker Carlson (in for Sean) were discussing just this on "Hannity".

Larry Sabato said, wide-eyed: "I didn't realize until recently that, yes, bribery of the Republican delegates *is allowed* per RNC rules!"

[rodguy911]

Wow if that’s real and we can get a name of the waitress and she actually heard it,could be really big.

[Roccus]

...IS THIS A REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC OR NOT??????????

Not.

When it comes to primaries, the respective political parties can do as they see fit.

[Voluntaryist]

I’m sorry. What I meant to say was there wasn’t a huge delegate gap back then like there is now.

[A CA Guy]

True, probably the best s Palin and even she catches hell.

[nutmeg]

Greath catch nutmeg. Just goes to show no matter how good a broadcaster you are if you talk enough you will screw up! You caught his screw-ups, good job.

I'm afraid it was an easy catch. Rush has been saying "You Trump voters" / "You Trumpists" for quite awhile now, as I'm sure you've noticed.

I'm sad that we all have to point out Rush's faults and pro-Cruz bias, nearly day after day. I hope Rush gets back to what used to be normal after these primaries are over. He needs to focus on whether or not Hillary will win the "FBI primary". (I suspect she will, unfortunately)

I wish I could stay, but gotta run. Have a good day! :-)

[TomGuy]

Have to commend Rush for that — on 2nd and additional ballots, delegates CAN vote for Trump or whomever.

That is the first mention I have heard any newsies/talk radio personality say that. They have always emphasized that Cruz (and/or Kasich) have a chance on the 2nd, because they have the delegates tied up. They seldom mention that Trump might get MORE delegates previously pledged to another.

Several of us on FR has mention that numerous times — the 2nd ballot is not a lock for Cruz.

Additionally, the unbound delegates are actually free to vote as they wish on the 1st ballot.

[A CA Guy]

You would think that would run into problems with campaign laws in general.

[The Cajun]

Can't believe Rush is willing to go to the mat backing Cruz like this.

He's almost in the same class of "nuttery" as Beck now.

[jackv]

Ah...so the voters don’t matter.... And people wonder why we are ticked off????

[nutmeg]

But did you play golf there? Because I think in Rushworld it’s golfing that makes you an expert. Skiing doesn’t count.

Nope, no golf or skiing in Lichtenstein. So I guess I don't "know" Lichtenstein. ;-)

(I really don't... just drove through it)

[GoKnow]

Whatever caused the fall and whatever her political stance, I don’t like the way that looked. I don’t like seeing people fall. Don’t find it funny. She may well have hurt herself. Nobody has said anything definite about it as far as I can tell. They may have wanted to cover it up so she doesn’t look like the vulnerable female. Doesn’t take much to pull something out of place, twist an ankle or even break a bone.

Whatever happened to her, it’s clear Cruz wasn’t moved to help.

[nutmeg]

You would think that would run into problems with campaign laws in general.

You would think. I only know what I heard Larry Sabato and Tucker Carlson say. I wish I had a video clip of that exchange on "Hannity"...

[A CA Guy]

Look at Rush from the standpoint of marketability for the show.

Boycotts and advertisers probably happen if he backed Trump early.
Cruz is inconsequential so offenses are minimized until the main election when he would back Trump IMO.

[Political Junkie Too]

That's why listening to Bob Barr of Georgia last week was so maddening.

Barr made it clear that he intended to represent the wishes of the voters only for as long as he was legally compelled to do so. A delegate who felt a true affinity to the voters would be an advocate for their candidate in later rounds, not flee them at the first opportunity.

-- i have always wondered if Indiana was anything more than a driveby fantasy just to sell more spots. --

I think it's important, but it isn't determinative. If Cruz wins Indiana, it costs Trump some momentum, but probably not so much that Trump can't get to 1237. And at the same time, if Trump wins, he can still (theoretically) be blocked from getting to 1237.

OTOH, if one follows the general flow of the primary races, this one is over. Trump has 90+% chance of getting to 1237, even if he loses in Indiana.

I wonder, sometimes, who or what has most influence in setting the establishment line. When it is clear that Trump has the nomination "on paper," which group has the most power in setting the story between then and the convention? There are many different possible story lines, between "unite behind Trump" and "unite to block Trump".
