Can you imagine if even little ol' Bob Dole had half an ounce of cojones and had gone after Clinton back in 96? Or better, if a conservative had been nominated? That one was ripe for the taking, as was 2012. Instead, we got stuck with people we hated for another 4 years.

I remember sitting in the car after a gym workout in 96 listening to the radio news when Clinton had hit Dole with criticism. I said to myself, Dole you need to answer Clintoon. Bob Dole did not respond to Clinton's remarks ever. In a few days, Dole drops in the polls. Dick Morris years later noted the lack of response from Dole about the same event, and Morris wondered why Dole said nothing.

Listening to hour one now. Holy cow, the only news you’d think is out there is that Cruz dropped out . . . not that Trump won anything.

Rush places way, way too much emphasis on Wisconsin. Big deal. The key numbers for me are these:

Ted Cruz didn’t carry ONE COUNTY in FL, VA, NY, RI, DE, MD, PA, or OH. Now, come on. How the hell do you expect to win an election, let alone a primary?

These were key states. Of all the big “must have” states, Cruz only won TX and CO, and only CO was a recent “flip” state from red to blue under Obama. I don’t see how a guy can fail to win ONE SINGLE COUNTY in four of the key swing states that will determine the election and even hope to compete.
