Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24 7 podcast.
And in his own words, he didn't win big, but he won by enough.
Mitt Romney in Michigan.
The winner last night in the Michigan primary, also in Arizona.
Congratulations to him.
He was emerged victorious there in his third home state.
Great to have you here, Rush Limbaugh, the EIB network and the Limbo Institute.
For advanced conservative studies, telephone numbers 800-282-2882, the email address L Rushbo at EIB net.com.
We get results here at the EIB network.
According to the Hill.com, Ron Paul.
The Ron Paul campaign has just put out a new attack ad on Romney, calling him a flip-flopper.
You know, I was on this program some short few days ago that the specter of an alliance between Romney and Paul was raised.
It wasn't predicted.
It wasn't categorically stated to exist.
It was a possibility that was raised.
And everybody denied it.
It's just conspiracy theory stuff.
And then there began to be research.
Well, all right, how many times in the debates has Paul really hit Romney?
And uh at best you could find one time.
In uh, I don't know, most of the recent debates.
And so now uh the Ron Paul campaign has just put out a new attack ad on uh on Romney, calling him a flip-flop.
And it also attacks Newt and Santorum.
And in fact, you could you could you could argue that it uh what it says about uh Romney is gentle by comparison to what it says about the other two.
But the ad is called three of a kind cookie, I don't need the audio for it.
That that's not why I'm mentioning it.
I don't need to I just wanted to mention it.
Uh we will get into the audio sound by some of the analysis of the uh of the primary last night.
I really, you know, I'm I'm eager now to hear.
As I was disappointed yesterday, I thought when we went to the phones, I was gonna hear what you all thought and how you're reacting to what was being discussed on the program yesterday, and there wasn't a whole lot of that.
And I really want to know where you are right now.
Because I know where I am, and I've been very open and clear about it.
There's no doubt.
No, seriously.
So the telephone number, if you want to be on the program is 800-282-2882, the email address L Rushbow at uh EIBNet.com.
Um put a stop to what?
What do you mean?
Am I going to put a stop to the primary?
I really don't understand.
What do you mean?
Oh no, it's not no, no, no.
I mean, no, I don't it's not time to put a stop to it, annoying anybody and say that we're done because that the the Newt's not getting out.
He's gonna stay into Super Tuesday.
That's where he's got all of his money banked.
Uh this thing could go on as far as May.
Santorum's not going anywhere.
Santorum doesn't have a lot of money even now.
He he doesn't have a um what did I say?
Romney outspent Santorum six to one in uh in Michigan.
I mean, just some facts about Michigan.
Romney won by nine points in 2008, won by three points last night, but got more votes last night than he did in 2008.
But the percentage of his uh victory 2008 was nine.
It was three points last night.
Santorum, uh, and this preliminary, I've got a I've got to double check this all, but this is what I have now.
Santorum won 57 out of 83 counties.
As of now, Santorum, who lost the popular vote, won because of the way uh delegates are apportioned, seven of the fourteen congressional districts.
Romney has won six, so that's seven and six a total of thirteen out of fourteen, one is still too close to call.
Now, according to what I'm told, the um 28 delegates of those 28 delegates in in Michigan, Santorum will either win 14 or 15.
Something like that.
The way things get apportioned because of uh of the number of delegates and counties, districts, so forth that he won uh in Michigan.
So it's it's it's not winner take all.
So when you ask me if if if I should pronounce it over, I'm not my job to do that anyway.
Let's in fact grab audio sumbite number two, because this this came up last night with Ted Baxter, who had uh Charles Crowdhammer on.
And they were talking about the Republican brand.
And I got two sound bites here since Snerdley has raised this thing.
Should I put a stop to it uh and just anoint Romney and get on with it now?
Why do you think that?
Just to stop all this destruction, stop all the dist.
Stop all the inf Well.
Well, that's what Crowdhammer's a Crowdhammer is saying that a Republican Party's brand is being destroyed with all of this.
Uh and we gotta st we th it's it it may have been destroyed so much that that it's it's hard for Romney to win.
Let's go to the two sound bites.
So Riley said, if you see all the national polling, Rasmussen did one yesterday, Romney either wins or is very close in Michigan.
I don't know if he's so much a weak candidate or in this situation where Republican conservatives dominate a lot of these votes.
Uh I'm not sure.
What's going on, Charles?
On Romney's weakness.
In an election year where the incumbent presidents got over eight percent unemployment, and he promised it would be six percent or less if you did his stimulus.
Well, you've got the worst economic comeback of any recession since the second world war.
Well, you've got a government that's added five trillion dollars in debt in one term.
You should not be running neck and neck.
So that already is a sign of weakness.
And he really ought not be struggling with a Santorum.
The problem with Romney is he keeps saying stuff like the wife's two Cadillacs, or I'm not really a big fan of NASCAR, but I know the owners of the race car teams.
This is just a candidate who's not fluent in candidacy.
It's just not his thing.
He's a good man, I think he'll make a good president, but he is not a good candidate.
Okay, that's Charles Krauthammer.
So um that may sum up a lot of you, by the way.
He's not fluent in conservatism.
It's just not his thing.
He's not fluent in candidacy, it's just not his thing.
But he's a good man.
I think he'll make a good president, but he's not a good candidate.
But he's according to Crowdhammer, he's he's he's shown his uh weakness or this this campaign has uh resulted in Romney appearing weak.
So then Baxter said, okay, you think Romney is gonna have a hard time with Obama, even though polls and research show that independent Americans are more likely to vote for Romney than the president.
So what are you basically saying?
Something some conservatives are just gonna sit it out and not vote?
No, I don't think that's the analysis.
Here's the analysis.
I think the weakness that Romney has is not that conservatives won't show up in November.
They will.
They want Obama out, and that will override everything.
The problem is with the Reagan Democrats, the white working class that Obama lost in 2008 by about I think eight or ten points.
You've got to win that by twenty points.
And you can do that.
Some of the Republican candidates in theory could do that.
Romney is weak with that segment.
He knows it.
That's why he tries to do the every man thing, and he keeps tripping over himself.
If he wins that constituency, he wins the presidency.
But that's what he's got to work.
Now he's illusion of what's interesting about that white working class constituency.
I keep harking back to the piece by Thomas Edsel in the New York Times that's now a month old, in which Edsel used to be at the Washington Post, now he's a huffing and puffing the post, and he's tight with the campaign with Obama.
With the White House.
And they basically admitted, they conceded in that op-ed piece that they're not going after white working class voters, white working class families.
And those people are defined uh alternately as white working class Democrats, uh, Reagan Democrats, white working class voters.
Um as you heard Crowdhammer say, Obama lost that group by eight to ten points in two thousand eight, and Obama's given up on nothing, not even going to campaign for the we we know this now.
Obama's going.
Obama is going.
He's just, in fact, the great unifier just this week set up an organization, African Americans for Obama.
Now, why does he have to do that?
What was the percentage of African Americans that he got in 2000?
Was it 99 plus?
Yeah, easy, as it is every presidential race.
So why does he have to set up African Americans for Obama?
Why is that even necessary?
But you uh you know, you tell me, is there some is there some fear that they won't show up and vote?
Are they dispirited or something?
Is there some fear they're going to vote for the Republican nominee?
I haven't seen that anywhere.
So he's, but anyway, despite that, the great unifier setting up all of these divisions now.
But it's Obama is going to be campaigning exclusively to the people who are being pulled in the cart.
The people who aren't paying income tax, the people that are on the federal dole.
He has made the calculation that that's where he wins.
It's clear to me the Democrat Party has now made the determination that of the people that vote in this country, a clear majority of them don't work.
A clear majority of them don't want to work.
A clear majority of them live and breathe on this class envy stuff and are going to vote for somebody who's going to make sure their contraception pills keep coming, their welfare checks keep coming, their disability checks keep coming, their unemployment checks keep coming, uh, food stamps, you name it, that's his group.
That's his constituency, illegal emigrants or families of illegal immigrants.
As many minority groups as he can create and convince are victims of an oppressive America.
And in that calculation, he he just casts aside white working class families while setting up African Americans for Obama.
And I think Crowdhammer's right, if they could get uh uh if if the margin of victory in that group for whoever the Republican nominee is is 20 points, then it is over.
What Crowdhammer is saying is that Romney is attempting to reach that group when he goes to the economic club of Detroit and says, uh, yeah, I got a Ford pickup or of uh what a Chevy pickup and a Mustang and and drives a couple of Cadillacs.
That's what Crowdhammer is saying.
He's just not natural doing this.
He's he's like somebody embarrassed of his uh achievements, embarrassed almost of his wealth, and is trying to um excuse it, and while at the same time trying to sound like every man.
So he was when he was asked about, he went, he went to the Daytona 500, and they asked him about NASCAR.
Well, you know, I don't really know.
Um but I know a bunch of uh owners of the teams.
And that is what Krauthammer is describing as uh as not being fluid in candidacy and not being fluid uh fluent in uh conservatism and so forth.
So he still thinks he'd make a good president, he's just not all that good a uh a candidate.
So here are the numbers.
Romney won by nine in 2008.
He won 41 to 38 or three points last night.
Santorum won 57 out of 83 counties.
That's an incredible percentage.
And reminds me of the map of the United States, red and blue by county.
When you look at it after a presidential race, and the whole country is red, signifying Republican, except LA, San Francisco, Seattle, Miami, Washington, New York, and Boston, Chicago, Detroit.
The Republicans win 80% of America's counties and lose.
The White House.
Santorum won 57 out of 83 counties.
Yes.
And as of now, Santorum, while losing the popular vote, has won seven of the 14 congressional districts.
Romney won six.
There's still one, At least right now, earlier this morning it was one.
That was still too close to call.
This means that of those 28 delegates, Santorum will either win 14 if the last district goes to Romney, and 16 if Santorum wins the last district.
So the delegate count from those 28 will be either a 1414 tie or 1612 Santorum of those 28 delegates.
There are two at large delegates.
They could go to the candidate who gets 50% of the vote.
Since nobody did, they will be split, one each between Romney and Santorum.
So the final delegate count coming out of Michigan will be either 1515 tie or 1713.
Santorum.
Now that might shock you.
I'm getting looks of uh of curiosity at people on the other side of the glass, but that is the um that is the way it breaks down.
Oh, I was also, as I say, I was minding my own business.
As I usually do late in the afternoon, it wasn't bothering anybody.
Punkin was pumpkin just got back from the cat hospital.
And uh she was nuzzling me, kicking me, eating me, whining and trying to get fed.
Oh, she just went for a checkup.
Uh punk and pumpkin's 11 now, so she just went in for a checkup.
She's had some bladder infections recently.
So the pumpkin came home and came immediately to the library and started meowing and getting in my face, headbutting me and so forth while I'm minding my own business.
Well, what is this about this?
Maybe she hasn't eaten.
So just as I was preparing to hoist myself out of my luxurious sofa to uh go upstairs to feed pumpkin.
Email signal rang on the iPhone.
I looked at it, and it was the news that Olympia Snow is retiring.
It was breaking news.
It was as it was it was stop everything.
Olympia Snow quitting.
And I said, okay, I'm gonna guess what I'm gonna read here before I read it.
So I said she's tired of the partisanship.
She's in good health.
Everything's hunky dory.
She just doesn't like the partisanship in the Senate.
And by golly, by gosh, there it was when I read the story.
And then something else hit me as I continued to read.
Here's what have I got here?
This is USA Today, but but pick one.
Let me take a break.
I'm getting down too close to it here.
Uh, but what where I'm heading with this is well, let's not just take the break.
If I if I don't take the break, I never will take the break.
We'll be in big doo-doo.
Welcome back, Rush Limbaugh, the excellence of broadcasting network.
I just checked the email during the break.
I found an interesting one.
Let me share it with you.
Probably reflects the uh thinking and the feelings of many of you.
I'm not an expert by any means, but we're all in a complete gloom out here because of this primary.
Nobody looks good right now.
The only acceptable guy is Romney, and Gingrich and Santorum are annihilating him by name calling constantly.
I don't even want to watch any of the news coverage right now.
We need to get through this primary and pray that Romney has great advisors to hone his message, which I think he can.
Obama looks pompous and arrogant lately, singing in public, talking about five more years, but trust me, the independent women in my life will never vote for Gingrich or Santorum, and I think that's a national pattern.
Women hate these guys.
They won't see them a slacker a day.
They won't give them the time of day.
They're both totally unacceptable to people who don't live and die in politics or have a general interest in politics, but they do vote, and they're totally unacceptable.
Santorum and Gingrich, they despise him, they hate him.
Romney's all we have.
We better learn to live with it and get behind it.
That's some you up, Don.
That pretty much sum you up.
Snerdley's not paying attention.
He's looking up something on Google.
Um he's not.
Anyway, does that pretty much sum it up for you?
Is there doom and gloom out there?
You all feel like you're watching Hee-Haw.
Gloom, despair, agony on me.
Who are all these people voting for Romney?
A lot of people voted for Romney.
One.
That's right.
Well, snurdly there are people live in Michigan that voted for Romney.
People that live in.
Some people are trying to make the case.
You wouldn't believe some of the emails I got today from people trying to make the case say, hey, hey, the real take of this is the conservatism won that day.
What did Romney have to do to win it?
What did he have to do to say to me?
He had to go conservative.
He had to move to the right.
He had to nudge to the right.
That's how he had to do it.
It's a great day for conservatism.
I had a couple of those kinds of emails.
I mean from friends, not audience members.
You know, my problem, folks, just to share a little inside baseball with you.
You can't believe.
What is the word for the input?
I I am I am inundated.
I I get a tsunami of opinion every day for people I know and from just reading the news and so forth.
It's a tsunami.
And if I didn't have a strong backbone and my own convictions, I would be a piece of spaghetti here every day.
Just bending and moving and shaping to all this other opinion that floats in.
But I did notice today that there are a lot of people tried to convince me that this ultimately means a big victory for conservatism in with a voter breakout and uh so forth.
What happened in Michigan and so forth?
And I just wonder if people who send me that are artificially trying to buck themselves up, or if they uh really believe it themselves, just trying to be persuasive.
I do believe this email I just read to you.
They hate Gingrich and Santorum.
By the way, folks, I have to make a correction.
I was wrong.
Well, I yeah, I gotta take the blame.
I was wrong.
There is not a new Ron Paul ad that attacks Romney.
The Hill is reporting it is a new attack ad, but it isn't.
It is an ad that first ran January 16th on Ron Paul's website.
They've simply brought it back to life.
It is being interpreted as something new, but it's over a month old.
All they did was upload it to YouTube so that it shows a new date.
Now why would they do that?
Why would the Ron Paul campaign get an a month-old ad posted on YouTube as though it's new as of today?
The day after Romney wins, why would they do that?
Isn't it somewhat obvious why they would do that?
The timing of this is exquisite.
Everybody's running around suggesting there might be some alliance between Romney and Paul's.
Here comes Romney wins Michigan.
Paul with a supposed attack ad.
Well, look, they can't possibly have an alliance.
See that?
Ron Paul's out there attacking Romney.
And if you look at the ad, he hits Santorman Gingrich as though he were a woman and hates him.
Far more than Romney.
But it's not a new ad.
It's the same one.
No, I tell I read the email.
I folded up and threw away, but let me here it is again.
And by the way, grab audio soundbite number one.
This is a this is gonna be a good time to do this.
Trust me, Rush.
This is where I disagree with you.
The independent women in my life will never vote for Gangrich's Santorum.
And I think that's a national pattern.
They both are totally unacceptable to people who don't live and die in politics.
Or even have a general interest in politics.
But they vote.
And they hate them.
They don't like them at all.
Sadly, I'm sure that that's true.
For all the obvious reasons.
But who is it that really poses these threats to women?
Does Gingrich pose a threat to women?
No.
Does Santorum pose a threat to women?
Seriously.
The only way Gingrich poses a threat to women is if you marry him.
And he's taken.
What's he ever done to any woman other than he's been married to them?
What's he ever done to them but divorced them?
Santorum has never been divorced.
He's got daughters.
He's got a wife.
What is there to hate about Santorum?
But I want to take you back to an audio sound by June 23rd, 2007 in Hartford, Connecticut.
This is during the United Church of Christ's 50th anniversary general synod.
And then Senator Barack Obama from Illinois spoke, and we have a portion of what he said.
Somewhere along the way, faith stopped being used to bring us together.
Faith started being used to drive us apart.
Faith got hijacked.
Faith got hijacked partly because of the so-called leaders of the Christian right who've been all too eager to exploit what divides us.
At every opportunity they've told evangelical Christians that Democrats disrespect their values and dislike their church while suggesting to the rest of the country that religious Americans care only about issues like abortion and gay marriage, school prayer, and intelligent design.
So here's a guy, Senator Illinois going after evangelical leaders.
And at every opportunity, they've told evangelical Christians that Democrats disrespect their values and dislike their church.
Now, who is it that really disrespects their values and dislikes their church?
It's Obama.
The Democrats.
It's inarguable.
If there is a political organization that hates the church and its values, dislikes the church's values.
It's the Democrat Party.
It's Barack Hussein Obama.
And what does he say here?
The religious Americans care only about issues like abortion, gay marriage, school prayer intelligence.
Who actually cares about those issues?
Who is it that's undermining all of that?
Barack Hussein Obama and the Democrats.
It's not Rick Santorum, and it's not Newt Gingrich.
Who is it that sponsors legislation that kills babies born alive?
It's not Rick Santorum.
It's not Newt Gingrich.
Who is it that is driving us apart on religion?
Barack Obama and the Democrat Party.
Who is using religion to drive us apart even now?
It's Barack Obama with this usurpation of power the Constitution does not grant him to mandate that birth control pills be given free of charge by churches and their schools or insurance companies.
You notice that as far as Obama's concerned, the religious right care only about abortion, gay marriage, school prayer, intelligent design.
Isn't that what they call projection?
Isn't that all the church of liberalism is concerned about?
They are haunted by these things.
All of those things that Obama mentioned, the left hates.
They consider them obstacles.
The left is making sure there's free access to abortion.
They champion gay marriage.
They ban school prayer.
They denounce anything that questions Darwinian evolution.
They are the ones doing the attacking.
These religious people are minding their own business.
All of a sudden they get up, they hear this and they defend.
But it's like in an NFL game.
The guy that gets the penalty flag for throwing a punch is always the guy, the second guy that does it, the retaliation.
The initiator is never flagged.
And it's the same thing here.
Now, all that being said, I understand that perception in life is way too often reality.
And the perception is that Santorum is a caveman and that women are birth of butts and the butt sisters.
And they're being given orders each and every day being dragged around by the hair.
They're being impregnated with all kinds of devices.
They have 15,000 children.
They are constantly fat, barefoot in the kitchen baking food.
For the people running around abusing the butt sisters.
The cavemen.
Gingrich, same category.
For whatever reason, these guys, the national perception is that women are subhuman, have no rights, and yet the reality, which doesn't seem to count, which doesn't seem to permeate, is that the real enemy of the American family,
the real enemy of American minorities, the real enemy of the institutions and traditions which have defined this nation and its greatness as a Democrat Party, and whoever leads it, right now that happens to be Barack Obama.
And somehow by quirk of fate, they are looked upon as open-minded, the people who guarantee freedom, human rights, civil rights, religious freedom, religious liberty when they're stomping on it each and every day.
that we have to deal with the reality that it's Gingrich and Santorum who are despised and hated.
It'll never be voted for by independent women.
I'm going to go to the next question.
So there you go.
That's where that's I'm sure that email that I read reflects a decent size of public.
I know I haven't forgotten about Olympia Snow.
The only thing I was going to say about Olympia Snow is in this USA Today story, uh there's there's major concern here that we may we may now lose the Senate because of this.
We Republicans might lose the Senate because of this.
Excuse me, I thought that's what Romney was gonna do was make sure that we didn't lose the Senate, even if he lost.
Did I hear I I did hear that?
I know that I heard that.
But if one Republican retires, we might lose the Senate.
First I've heard of that.
Oh, well, quick timeout.
We'll get to your phone calls when we come back.
Don't go away.
You know what's laughable about about the Republicans panicking over the fact that Olympia Snow retiring means that we might lose the Senate.
As far as I'm concerned, with her in it, we never had it.
That's been the problem.
With Olympia Snow in the Senate as a Republican, we've never had the Senate as Republicans.
She didn't vote with Republicans, she didn't vote with conservatives.
This is no great loss.
No different than a Democrat retiring.
This is the illusion the Republican Party is in.
They think they lost a Republican.
They didn't.
We never had the Senate as long as she was in it.
And Susan Collins, too, and a number of others, Voinovich half the time, you know the usual suspects.
Okay.
Let us venture forth, ladies and gentlemen, to the land of the blinking yellow lights, signifying eager callers wishing to contribute to the daily discourse here on the EIB network.
Where are we going?
Carolina Beach, Carolina, this is Holly.
Great to have you on the program.
Hello.
Hey, Mr. Lumbaugh.
I'm um I'm gonna tell you what a big fan I am by telling you that I'm wishing you liberal, left-wing, bleeding heart, knee jerk, yellow dog democrat, bitos.
Well.
Great to have you on the program, Holly.
Um, I'm calling to say that I really hope the Republican Party goes ahead and make sure they nominate a true conservative.
Because I remember in 2008, uh, at the end of 2008, you were saying, I am done carrying the water for the Republican Party.
No, that was 2006.
Okay, well, I'm sorry if I have the timing wrong, but I was like, good for Rush.
My memory is of 2008.
I'm sorry, I may have to argue with you, but um, but I was like, it's a rush, because that's right.
The republic, you know, if you truly believe the conservative cause, then you've got to nominate a conservative leader to be their head of your party.
And um and I and it doesn't matter one way or the other to me because I'm very confident that President Obama's gonna get reelected.
But I really think that when Republicans lose, they need to lose with principle.
Well, you're very concerned about us in that way.
Holly, you really care about us.
That's that's why you're warming my heart here.
I was afraid you'd think you would be suspicious of it, but it honestly is from I think it would be for the best if Republicans What is there to be suspicious?
You want conservatives to lose and you want them to lose as con you want them to lose as conservatives, right?
Yeah, well, yes, that's Republicans are going to lose, but I'm saying how do they want to go down?
Do they want to go down with another establishment candidate like McCain, or do they want to go down with a conservative?
Well, no, no, that's not no wait.
That's not the qu the question is how do you want them to go down?
Oh oh well I just want them to go down, and that's what's gonna happen.
But then why do you care?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Why do you care whether they go down with a with a faux conservative or a real one?
Well, I do believe in the two party system, and I do believe that it helps to have people who have differing views, bring different ideas.
Give me a break.
You no more believe that than you believe that a man in the moon impregnated Rick Santorum's wife No, I hadn't heard that one.
Um I don't believe that one.
Um Holly, you're a great liberal.
I need to ask you something I've been hearing, and I need to confirm it with you.
I literally this is not a trick, it's not a joke.
I have been hearing that one of the reasons that women don't like Santorum is he's got too many kids.
And that and he's as old as he and his wife are, they have an infant, and that's just oppressive.
There's no woman alive once have seven kids, much less uh seven kids when when when the the that couple's age.
Have you do you think that, or have you heard other people be critical of Santorum for that?
No, I haven't.
But I will say this that when I was talking to all of my friends about the whole uh contraception contre comp that one of the things we talked about is we don't know anybody who's got five and six kids.
Every person I know, every woman I know has been on birth control at least some point in her life.
You know, anybody I know doesn't have more than three kids.
That's most of anybody I know you do you do know women who have kids then.
Uh yes.
My mother's one of them.
Well, yeah, but that would be automatic.
Uh I'm at a I'm in your circle of friends.
Uh how many?
Yeah.
Do you all keep do you all keep track of well no, not gonna be.
I you know, I go I go to work.
I have, you know, women that I work with, have women that I went to school with, have women that live in my neighborhood, I have women that go to my church.
I you know, I just I kn I can't really wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, but what church do you go to?
Never mind.
It's none of my business.
I'm just shocked.
I don't know how to deal with it.
Um I mean, I don't I mean, I'm personally I don't appreciate that.
I know that I'm a good Christian and that I have a a great faith in God controlling the things that go on in the world.
Well, I know you love Obama, but but that's a that's a given.
You know, if God loves his country, which I know he does, he will make sure that's the right.
Well, that's where you and I differ.
I'm not sure God does love the country.
Oh, I know he does.
Yeah, we can't be this great a blessed country without his blessings.
Um I feel like I'm not sure.
I just don't I just don't see Obama that way.
I I know there is a great divide between us on this.
I do, I see that.
And can I tell you one of the things I do I love about you is you're willing to let somebody like me come on and say my opinion.
You know, other people who want to be rush are really bad about like not at all letting liberal voices on the radio shows with them.
Well, I pretty much we put them up first in line when we when we get them.
Oh, I know.
I even said I'm a liberal on a cell phone.
I know that means I go to the front of the line.
Well I'm a fan.
I'm a huge fan.
I get a kick talking to you.
I think you're you're uh you represent a challenge, a possibility.
I mean you're at least you're listening every day.
Yes.
And so you you represent um um future growth.
And uh what I happen to believe in.
Not into conservatism, but definitely, you know, as far as it's a lot of people.
It sneaks up on you, Holly.
One day you're gonna be and you won't even know how it happened.
Uh it'll just happen one day.
That's the risk you it's the risk you run listening to me every day.
It will happen.
Uh well the only thing reason why I'm positive won't is because again, I have a 90-year-old mother who's a braving liberal, and so she's if she's not turned conservative, I have every confidence I won't either.
Are you married?
Uh I'm divorced.
You're divorced.
Badly.
So but that's it was a long time ago, and I I haven't attempted to go down that path again.
Yeah.
Um but you know, I hope to, and uh, and I hope to adopt children.
I'm just not in a place to do it right now, but yeah.
I'm definitely getting to the point where I'm not gonna be having them biological.
Well, don't that's one thing I tell people too, the contraception issues don't the older you get, the less that matters.
I'm not worried about unplanned pregnancy.
Well, don't call Planned Parenthood if you want to adopt whatever you do, don't call them.
John McCain has weighed in, ladies and gentlemen.
It's a newsmax story came in last night.
McCain fretting that Romney may not be too wounded to beat Obama.
Uh McCain said the worst you got then with Hillary and Obama was what are you gonna do with that phone call at three in the morning.
But now with Santorum and and Romney, these these people are just not respectful of each other, meaning Santorum and Romney.
Uh that's not sitting well with the voters.
They they're not respectful of each other.
