Time Text
Hang on, folks.
Late arriving show prep that came to me out of order just as the program began.
Greetings, welcome back.
Great to have you here, Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network, the Limbaugh Institute.
Now, look at me and listen to this for advanced conservative studies, not the Advanced Republican Party Institute.
Not moderate studies, advanced conservative studies.
It's a thrill.
It's a delight to be with you.
Our telephone number, if you want to be on the program, 800-282-2882.
Email address, it's a worthless piece of paper.
That's why I was crinkling it up.
Email address is lrushbow at EIBnet.com.
All right.
Well, I'm just going to stick with the audio sound bites because they'll help me respond to some of the comments in the previous hour made.
And we got the guy's name is Terry, Sandy, Utah.
We got a couple others in line who also think that I am lacking in integrity and that I am advocating cheating and so forth.
I'm just going to tell you something.
You moderate Republicans, you haven't the slightest idea how to win elections.
You haven't the slightest idea how to win this election.
You don't even understand how it is that our own nomination process was corrupted.
I'll tell you, thank God for me.
Really?
I wouldn't normally say that, but Donna Brazil, you got to listen.
I got two more comments because this, now this is on a different subject.
This is what I said last week that if the Democrats nominate Hillary and Obama or Obama and Hillary in the same ticket, that that ticket doesn't have a prayer.
And all these liberal Democrats trying to say it was a racist statement.
Here's Brazil one more time.
You know, Wolf, I'm an American, and I'm proud to be an American, but I think that comment is, as far as I can tell, a very un-American conversation.
Because African Americans and women fight for this country.
We've died for this country.
And to suggest somehow or another that we are not capable of serving this country in the capacity of commander-in-chief is just, in my mind, mind-boggling.
So, with all due respect to Mr. Limbaugh, just wait, let the people decide.
And I guarantee you, the people will make a better decision than Rush Limbaugh.
Totally let the people decide here, Ms. Brazil.
Nobody talked about Obama's race.
I didn't bring it up.
You guys are the ones who have been talking about whether Obama's black enough or not.
But I have a question for you, Ms. Brazil.
When Clarence Thomas was nominated to Supreme Court, did you support him?
How about Michael Steele when he ran for the Senate in Maryland, Ms. Brazil?
Did you support him?
How about Ken Blackwell in Ohio?
Did you support Ken Blackwell?
Did you support Lynn Swan when he ran for governor against Fast Eddie Rindell in Pennsylvania?
Did you attack their various critics when Swan had his critics and Blackwell had his critics?
And of course, these are black Republicans, Donna Brazil, and you know full well when they're attacked, they're attacked as Uncle Tom's and so forth.
Did you attack their critics?
You know, I know she came to Clarence Thomas's defense at one point in this, but was she in favor of afterwards, that's right, was she in favor of his confirmation?
No, of course not.
Of course not.
Now, you know, this whole business of the lack of integrity and so forth, like I said, I'm not interested in being a happy loser, folks.
Too much at stake here for the future of the country.
Let the liberals be happy losers.
You moderate Republicans, you have the candidate that you want with the help of independents and Democrats.
Senator McCain, Senator McCain is even now in his acceptance speech back in Texas last week, talked about how happy he was to have Democrat votes.
What if Mrs. Clinton were to say, I'm happy to have Republican votes?
She probably is, as a matter of fact.
She just didn't say so, but the Democrats have chosen our nominee.
Now, what are you going to do?
You've got your nominee.
You've got Senator McCain, you moderate Republicans, you've got the candidate you want.
Now, what are you going to do to get him elected?
I guarantee you this, if you keep harassing me and other conservatives, you are not going to get Senator McCain elected.
If you keep telling people like me to shut up and to stop talking this way, you are not going to get Senator McCain elected.
I don't think you moderate Republicans to the extent that you're in this audience have the slightest idea how to win this election.
I think I could open the phones for a couple hours, say only moderate Republicans are going to call in.
We're going to hear from them how we're going to win this election.
He's starting to get worried about this election.
I can tell you, despite insisting that McCain's the best Republican to win, even Bill Crystal in the New York Times is running scared in his piece.
He's really running.
He got the candidate he wanted, and now he's running scared.
And one of his ideas is to suggest a bunch of different names for vice president.
Do you know who the first name on the list is?
Bill Crystal thinks that John McCain should choose Joe Lieberman.
Well, over and over, the other conservative at the New York Times says this is the McCain-Lieberman Party.
Also said, take Clarence Thomas off Supreme Court and maybe make him nominee, the vice presidential nominee.
I kid you not.
So you moderate Republicans out there, you got the nominee you wanted, and you got the election you wanted, and now you don't have the slightest idea how to win it.
If you want to be one of these happy-go-lucky Republicans Democrats like and so forth, you go right ahead.
That's not my objective.
More audio sound bites.
Ron Kirk, the former mayor of Dallas, was on Wolf Blitzer on Wednesday night.
Also, Lisa Caputo, the former press, or former Hillary press secretary, about me saying that a Clinton-Obama ticket wouldn't have a prayer.
Blitzer said, Mr. Kirk, let me ask you first for a comment on what Rush Limbaugh had to say.
You heard the entire chunk there.
Give us your reaction.
Why are we talking about this guy?
Why is he on TV?
He is so irrelevant, and he only says stuff to be inflammatory.
And frankly, the best thing that could happen to either Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama, should they be the nominee, would be for Rush Limbaugh to keep saying stupid stuff like this.
As shameful as what Rush Limbaugh has said, it's as disconcerting to many Democrats the tone that Senator Clinton has chosen to take in attacking Barack Obama.
And if it's irresponsible and if it's not appropriate for Rush Limbaugh to say what he said, to many of us, it's just as distasteful for the Clinton campaign to try to exploit race, exploit sex, exploit fear for political expediency.
Boy, man, that's a bigger indictment of Clintons than there is an indictment of me out there.
And I don't hear him saying the Clintons are irrelevant.
And why are the Clintons on TV?
He goes on and agrees with the premise that it's totally, I didn't even, I wasn't even talking about race.
I'm talking about, just to reiterate it for you, what I said was, if Democrats put Clinton and Hillary on Clinton and Obama on a ticket, I don't care who's on top.
They didn't have a prayer.
White men are who elect presidents in this country, and they do so on the issues not marketing and packaging.
They do so on competence.
And you've got somebody that cannot even manage her own campaign who's got 49% negatives, either at the top or bottom of the ticket.
You got Obama, who has literally no experience whatsoever, as will be putting his foot in his mouth numerous times between now and November.
If you think that ticket is a big, big winner, then you are setting yourself up for a huge shock.
Here's Lisa Caputo, who wanted to weigh in on the same thing.
Well, all I would say, Wolf, is I think that the voter turnout in these primaries and caucuses for the Democrats, I think, is an indicator of how Democrats feel about both candidates.
And I think Rush Limbaugh is absolutely delusional if he thinks a ticket like that doesn't have a prayer.
See, people, I'm not supposed to say things like this.
When you tell the truth about the Democrats, that's when they come out of the caves with their fangs bared.
You're just not supposed to be a good little Republican and go along with the Democrat Party narrative, go along with the liberal narrative.
You're not supposed to speak truth to power.
Wolf Blitzer himself got in on the action, hammering my dream team comments.
This is from yesterday, the late edition show.
He had for the National Urban League, Mark Moriel, who's a former mayor of New Orleans.
The Reverend Jackson.
No, it wasn't.
I'm sorry, it was the Reverend Jackson's son.
Gregory Meeks, Democrat New York, Blitzer and Mark Moriel have this exchange about me.
Mr. Moriel, as you know, Rush Limbaugh has an enormous audience out there.
But Rush Limbaugh said this.
I'm going to play the clip for you.
Let's say it is Obama and Hillary, Hillary Obama.
Let's put Hillary at the top of it.
Put Hillary on top.
It's a position she's familiar with.
Therefore, you've got a woman and black, first time ever, on the Democrat ticket.
They don't have a prayer.
Would they have a prayer if they were together on what some Democrats call the dream ticket or the dream team?
I mean, there'd be many people praying for them.
But, you know, the issue is Rush Limbaugh, a consistent pattern of division, a consistent pattern of trying to distract people from the real issues that are at play in this campaign and in the discussion about the future of America.
It's pretty consistent with what I've heard from Rush Limbaugh over the years.
You know, I had a funny story about Mark Moriel.
He was mayor of New Orleans, and I was invited to go down there and one Marty Graw and ride on one of the floats, one of the big crews.
And after you go through town and you're throwing beads to everybody, you didn't go to the mayoral reviewing stand at the end of the thing, and the mayor's out there shaking hands.
Everybody goes by, and he had no idea I was there, had no idea I was coming.
And when it got my turn to shake his hand, the smile on his face just froze as I was shaking his hand and the flashbulbs were popping.
All right, here is the Reverend Jackson's son.
And Blitzer said, Congressman Jackson, what do you think about that?
Republicans should distance themselves from what Rush Limbaugh said about Mrs. Clinton being on top.
That was offensive.
It was wrong.
And I would imagine by tomorrow women's groups won't just be focusing on the black-white nature of that contest not having a prayer, but what Rush Limbaugh specifically said about Mrs. Clinton.
I found it offensive, and I think those who sponsor his program ought to find it offensive as well.
Now, see, this is amazing, too, because it was the Clintons who introduced the phrase into the paradigm here.
They said she should be on top.
She should be on top because that's where she's used to being.
I added that, but wow, see, you're just, you're not supposed to tamper with this sweet little narrative that the Democrats have come up with.
Back here with more in a moment.
Ah, this is fabulous.
Obama's out there in Columbus, Mississippi, as we speak.
He's making a campaign appearance.
And he is echoing sentiments that I expressed in the first hour of this program.
He's talking about the possibility of being on a ticket with Hillary at the top.
And he said, wait a minute, just a week ago, I wasn't qualified to answer the phone at 3 o'clock in the morning.
Now all of a sudden, I'm qualified to be the vice president?
Oh, that's the kind of double talk we don't need.
That's a kind of double talk that's emanated from Washington.
Of course, police went nuts and so forth.
So Obama doesn't seem to be down for this.
You know, being on the low side of the vice presidential ticket.
All right, let's see.
Greg Meeks.
Is that his name?
Gregory Meeks?
Yes.
Democrat New York.
Wolf Blitzer Sunday shows.
Blitzer says, Congressman Meeks, you think the so-called dream team or dream ticket would be unstoppable, as Bill Clinton says?
What you're going to see is that Rush Limbaugh is going to be isolated because what this election has showed me, that America is moving to a different direction.
America is moving where Rush Limbaugh and the Rush Limbaugh types will be by far in the minority.
And people are going to be looking at individuals not by their gender, not by their ethnicity, but by the content of their character and what they move forward.
Well, gee, that's how I, that's exactly why the ticket's going to lose is because it, you're talking character, the content of their character on the Clinton side, 49% negatives and the their competence.
I mean, Obama just hasn't demonstrated it yet.
But here's the thing.
Here's the thing about this.
I never said that Hillary and Obama can't win because of race or sex.
But notice, notice the libs are upset because they think I said it.
And here's the irony.
The irony is that they say America is sexist and racist.
That's their template.
The fact that America is racist and sexist is precisely one of the cylinders of their V8 engine that propels them down the political highway.
They ought to, if they think that that's what I said, they should be agreeing with me.
If they think that's, even though I didn't say it, if they think that, they should be agreeing with me because that's how they look at America.
Is it not as racist and sexist?
You know, they are insisting a woman in black can win the election, although their own template says it's not possible.
This is too much fun.
Just too much fun.
All right, now, let's go to the other side of the coin.
And we'll get your phone calls here after the break at the bottom of the hour.
There are some liberals out there who agree with what I said and who understand why.
Sunday, George Stephanopoulos talked to Cokie Roberts about a possible Clinton-Obama ticket.
Stephanopoulos said, Cokie, is the message from the Clinton campaign then, vote for us and you can still get Obama?
The truth is, is that putting two senators, two liberals, two people from states that are going to go Democratic anyway, and no white guy when all we've ever had is a white guy.
Well, white men determine the president.
You can talk about the youth vote.
Can talk about all the gender stuff, the racial, the black vote, and so forth, but they're going to do this without a white guy on a ticket?
That's what she's saying.
She goes on to explain.
You were talking about the pluses of being a Mormon and an African-American.
There are a lot of minuses, and we're seeing that as well.
John McCain is a very acceptable candidate.
He's either winning or tying in the polls in what should be an overwhelming Democratic year.
You've got 75% of the people saying the country's on the wrong track.
The economy is in the tank.
The president's approval ratings are terrible.
And yet, the Republican nominee is tied.
This is in the context of a discussion about why a Hillary Obama ticket would be a disaster.
So, you moderate Republicans and you angry members of the drive-by media want to take shots at me, got to include Koki Roberts.
Now, last Thursday night in the O'Reilly factor, he had Mark Lamont Hill from Temple University on about this statement that the Hillary Obama ticket wouldn't have a prayer.
Riley said, You have any idea what Mr. Limbaugh was driving at there?
Oh, absolutely.
He's trying to reflect an actual truth for once, and that is that American people are likely not ready for a ticket that has an African-American man and a white woman at the same time.
That's not quite what I said.
He's making it race and gender-related, but nevertheless, let's move on to CNN.
Reliable sources on Sunday, this is yesterday.
Howard Kurtz talked to author Kelly Goff about all this.
Kurtz said, Kelly, on Rush's statement, can you make a cold, calculating observation that trying to win an election with two groundbreaking candidates might be too risky without being accused of being racist and sexist?
Look, there's a lot to criticize Rush Limbaugh for.
I mean, we don't have enough time to go into how many things he said over the years that could be deemed offensive.
In this instance, however, Howard, I think that he simply said out loud what a lot of people are thinking and simply spoke the truth.
And in fact, the ironic thing is about his statement, I'd say that the sexual innuendo in there was probably a lot more offensive than what he said about the realities of trying to elect the first female African-American ticket in our nation's history.
You know, the reality is we're not sure that America's ready.
How can we say we're sure that the country's ready for the first black female ticket?
How can we say it?
We can't.
We don't know yet.
But what did she say?
The sexual innuendo?
Well, the sexual innuendo was that I said Hillary should be on the top because this is a position she's familiar with.
Well, hell's bells here, folks.
It was Hillary Clinton who used the phrase when they put out this whole notion of a joint ticket.
It was Hillary who said she should be on top of the ticket.
She's used to being on top in power circumstances, in power situations.
Wow, look at the prejudices and the biases that these Democrats take.
They're the ones that determine whether or not there's a racist comment or not based on their own prejudices.
And we are back on the cutting edge.
Rush Limbaugh, talent on loan from a God.
Okay, ladies and gentlemen, have your attention here for just a moment.
I wish to issue an apology to Hillary Clinton.
I now realize how egregious it was for me to suggest that Mrs. Clinton would like the top position.
I apologize for suggesting that Hillary should be on top, for suggesting it's a position she's familiar with.
And from now on, I will toe the line because I have learned my lesson.
I have got my mind right.
From now on, I will singularly advocate that Mrs. Clinton always be on the bottom of anything, whatever, because I don't want to go through this anymore.
Accused of sexual innuendo like this.
Speaking of Jesse Jackson Jr., offended by me and Mrs. Clinton being on top comment.
He said, that's worse than what I said about the rest of the ticket.
Apparently, it doesn't take much to offend Jesse Jackson Jr. these days because he's not offended by Calypso Louis Farrakhan.
He's not offended by the Resco scandal in Chicago involving Obama.
He obviously is not offended by Michelle Obama's comments that America is a mean nation and that only now is she proud to be an American.
Apparently, he was not offended by Bill Clinton's comments in South Carolina or anywhere else.
Apparently, Jesse Jackson Jr. not offended by much except my comments.
Those really offend him.
Jesse, by the way, you might want to look into this.
I just discovered this.
This is on a website called Mediatakeout.com.
It claims to be the most visited black website in the world.
And the headline, New Orleans Mayor Nagan, I'm a vagina-friendly mayor.
Ray Schoolbus Nagan has openly said he is a vagina-friendly mayor.
Radio station in New Orleans is reporting that Ray Nagan made the remarks while welcoming the author of the vagina monologues, Eve Ensler, to the city to promote the V-Day celebration in New Orleans next month.
They have a vagina day next month in New Orleans.
Look at Dawn in there giggling.
Mayor Nagan began his comments at a news conference by saying, how am I going to stand up and say I'm a vagina-friendly mayor to these cameras after Chocolate City and some of the other stuff I've done?
But you know what?
I'm in.
So New Orleans Mayor Ray Schoolbus Nagan says he's in or a vagina-friendly, as a vagina-friendly mayor, city of New Orleans.
So I got the Reverend Jackson Jr., Jesse Jackson, you might want to look into this.
I don't know if this will offend you or not.
Back to the phones.
James in Brooklyn, Iowa.
You're nice to call.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Hi, Rush.
I'll get right to my point here.
I happen to think that you are onto something good by encouraging crossover voting as you did in Texas.
But you need to also encourage the same thing preemptively for all the other states that haven't had primaries and caucuses.
And that would include Florida and Michigan.
Because if Florida can get people to register as Democrats in Florida, if they redo a revote, re whatever they do it, and they may do it mail-in, then they'll have their registered voters.
And if you have people registered like today as Democrats, then they won't dare disenfranchise those voters, even if they are crossover Republican voters.
Exactly right.
Exactly.
Now, you're talking specifically about the redo in Florida?
Well, I'm thinking there's a possibility you could get every primary and caucus that hasn't voted every state so far.
Republican nominee is no longer in doubt.
You mean encouraging crossovers in every primary state that hasn't happened yet?
Exactly.
The Republican nominee is no longer in doubt, so why not have Republicans decide who the Democrat nominee is going to be?
Well, because you may not have heard, I've been accused of cheating.
I'm being accused of being un-American, of sabotage, all these other things.
But, you know, I would say this, those of you on this integrity gig, whether or not a player in a contest or a game has integrity.
Do you know what it is that determines the integrity of the participants in any contest?
What is it?
What is it that determines the integrity of the participants in any contest?
It's the rules, right?
The focus first is on the rules.
Then, if a rule is violated, the player becomes the focus and might be accused of failing or lacking in integrity.
But I didn't advocate breaking any rule.
Therefore, my integrity, as always, is firmly intact.
I didn't advocate anybody break a rule.
These are all states with open primaries.
No rules have been broken here, you people.
Let me tell you something.
You want to talk about rules?
Have you forgotten New Hampshire and Iowa caucuses too?
In New Hampshire, folks, in case you haven't forgotten, do anybody wonder why Hillary won that state?
Go back and look to all the people, read all the stories about the out-of-state buses from Massachusetts that rolled in there on Election Day.
Do you know in New Hampshire, you can drive into the state on the day of the primary, register and vote, even if you don't live there?
All you have to do is tell them you intend to move there someday, and you can vote.
Don't talk to me about rules.
Don't talk to me about lack of integrity.
I have not suggested at one moment that people violate the rules of any of these contests.
Phyllis, in what is this, Palatka, Florida?
Nice to have you with us on the EIB network.
Thank you, Rush.
Rush, my dear friend, you are right about this being a war, but you are wrong in your strategy.
And if you'll just give me a moment to explain General Patton, he was a great military genius.
He said, you always take out your enemy when you have the opportunity.
You never give them a chance to recover, and you never leave them standing.
And Rush is a perfect example.
If we would have taken Russia out when Russia was weak, just like when Hillary was weak, if we would have taken her out, we would not have to deal with her later on.
And I'm afraid that's what might happen.
This is a game we're playing.
You know, politics is dangerous.
We are playing a game where winner takes all.
Hillary's an old adversary.
I want her out.
I want her gone.
I'll deal with Obama.
But let's get rid of Hillary first, politically speaking, of course.
And then at that point, we will deal with Obama.
Right.
Let me explain some things.
Our actions, to whatever extent they occurred, the crossover voting for Hillary in both Ohio and Texas on Tuesday of last week, did not alter her standing in the race, did not improve her standing in the race at all in terms of delegates.
In fact, Obama ended up a net delegate winner because of the Texas cauckey the night of the Texas primary.
Yes, I know that.
Well, see, but yet Mrs. Clinton stayed in, didn't she?
What you have to understand is that Mrs. Clinton could not be defeated on last Tuesday if Obama had won even a large margin of victory in either state.
He could not have because she was going to hang around anyway.
Look at the Clintons are obsessed with one thing, Phyllis, and that's power.
There was no way Mrs. Clinton was going to be aced out of this race or, as Patton said, destroyed last Tuesday.
It wasn't going to happen.
I know it.
She knew it.
Obama knows it.
Everybody knew it.
What instead needed to happen was a momentum shift for the express purposes of the media and for the Clinton campaign to be able to say there's a reason to stay in it for the exact thing that's happening now.
This party is in a state of chaos, and these two candidates are beating the shreds out of each other, whereas our party is not going to do it.
There is no way, as we sit here today, Phyllis, no way.
The numbers have been run.
The math has been calculated.
There is no, if Hillary Clinton wins by landslide proportions of 15 to 20 percent in every remaining primary state, she doesn't catch him in delegates.
Yes, I do understand all of that.
I understand the math.
I've heard the math over and over again.
But there are so many things that could happen between now and then that's frightening.
I mean, you just cannot know every parable out there.
But you seem to think that if Hillary had lost big in Texas and Ohio, that she would have been finished.
I think the momentum, you were right about the momentum.
Once the momentum swings to somebody, you have all these hangar-ons and they run to that.
She lost more momentum on Saturday, Wyoming.
He got seven more delegates.
She's going to lose momentum tomorrow night in Mississippi.
Point is, she's not going anywhere, regardless of what these elections show.
That's not going to happen.
She and her husband are obsessed with power.
I know that.
Okay, well, then I understand that completely.
Nothing that I did, to whatever extent it mattered, nothing that all these crossover voters did contributed to Hillary Clinton being more viable in this race than she was before last Tuesday.
May I address Terry's remarks, please?
The remarks he made about who we are at.
Oh, the guy from Sandy, Utah.
Yes.
And I understand where he's coming from because you have told us so many times, Rush, we don't want to be like them.
We want them to be like us.
We're mad at McCain because he runs across the aisle and tries to join them.
I don't want to do that.
I want our principles and our beliefs and our way of thinking.
I want them to look at us and say, that's who I want to be like.
That's who I want to be like.
I don't want us to be like them.
I don't want us to be more like them.
I want them to be more like us.
I totally agree, but that's not happening.
Our candidate is not reaching across the aisle to bring them in as us.
Our candidate is reaching across the aisle to bring them in as them.
You must understand, I'm not the problem here.
I am not the one who is helping to corrupt the Republican Party by bringing Democrats and independents into it as Democrats and liberals.
I am not the one.
I am trying to beat them.
This is about winning.
It is about winning.
And I don't think the moderates on our side have the slightest idea how to win this election.
They haven't a clue.
And the, you know, I would, I would love it if we could convert these people to join us, but you know, there's a way you do that.
Gosh, you know, Ronald Reagan did it.
I hate to keep using the name because people get confused and think I'm in a cult of personality here.
Reagan Democrats, you remember them?
They came in as conservatives to give Reagan a huge landslide victory twice.
There's a way to do it.
You do it with ideas.
You don't run from conservatism.
You don't act embarrassed by it.
You don't act embarrassed of conservatives.
You shout it proudly.
It works.
It need not be a minority.
But if we're not going to do that, if our party has made the decision that it's going to try to expand by bringing Democrats and liberals in as Democrats and liberals, then okay, Gauntlet's been thrown down.
If they can choose our nominee, we can choose theirs.
We can participate in it.
Oh, man, I never thought this would be so hard.
All right, back to the audio soundbites here on the one and only Rush Limbaugh program of the EIB network.
This is a montage of the way the drive-bys are characterizing as un-American, the Limbaugh effect.
Notice you will not hear the word maverick here.
They ought to be calling me a maverick.
Our guy, Senator McCain, crosses the aisle all the time, makes deals with Democrats in what Thomas Sowell has referred to as a betrayal of the Republican Party on the times he's done it.
And yet McCain is loved and appreciated in the drive-bys as a maverick.
Notice that term is not applied to me in this montage of media types.
I believe it's actually un-American.
It's shameful.
Rush Limbaugh and others on the far right now trying to pervert to create mischief.
Vote for Hillary to cause mischief.
I don't think people should play God in the other person's primaries.
The Rush Limbaugh factor.
Throw the whole thing into chaos, which is sabotage.
Dirty business that Rush Limbaugh pulled.
Whatever rules of gentlemanliness have existed, those rules may be broken.
Limbaugh's antics.
Person of the process.
It worked, according to Rush Limbaugh.
His plan worked.
Oh, it sure as hell did.
That was Amy Roebuck from whatever was DNC TV.
Have you heard, folks?
You want to hear evidence of how this is working?
Does the name Bill Bradley ring a bell?
Senator Bill Bradley, Democrat, New Jersey, former Democrat presidential candidate.
He's now jumped into this whole mix.
And Bill Bradley is demanding that the Clintons release financial documents, including the donors to the Clinton Presidential Library massage parlor.
Bill Bradley wants to know if there are favors attached to contributions to the massage parlor.
And what do we mean by favors?
Well, this is Bradley talking.
Well, pardons that are granted, investigations that are squelched, contracts that are awarded, regulations that are delayed.
Senator Bradley also accused the Clintons of lying to win the nomination.
The bigger the lie, the better chance they think they've got.
Folks, Amy Roebuck, it is working.
Ever since Ohio and Texas, look at this now, folks.
Look at me.
Ever since Tuesday, when Hillary's electoral chances by virtue of pledge delegates got worse, please understand this.
Despite our crossovers to the extent they happened, her electoral chances with pledge delegates got worse until despite that, all of this chaos has sprung up.
All of these attacks back and forth.
Now Obama is in Mississippi saying, how come it was a week ago I'm not qualified to answer the phone at 3 in the morning?
And now all of a sudden I'm qualified to be on the bottom of the ticket?
This is, folks, this is a dream come true.
I will guarantee you that had there not been the Republican crossovers, there wouldn't be as much chaos.
There wouldn't be, we've caused it.
We've created it.
