Time Text
The views expressed by the host on this program, now documented to be almost always right, 99.7% at a time.
I am Rush Lindboy, your highly trained broadcast specialist, meeting and surpassing all audience expectations on a daily basis.
Which, for those of you in Rio Linda means every day.
Telephone number if you want to be on the program 800-282-288-2, the email address, Lrushbow at EIBNet.com.
You were talking about Palin, Romney's VP, the Republican establishment.
It really folks is I don't know what the word.
It's not criminal, but but what's being done here to Sarah Palet, what continues to be done.
I'll tell you it's going to come back and bite these people who are who are doing it.
Here's an example.
Mike Allen at the Politico kicked off this whole story last week by writing this.
One Republican official, familiar with the campaign's thinking, meaning Romney, Romney campaign's thinking, said that it will be designed to produce a vice presidential pick who is safe and by design unexciting.
A deliberate anti-palin.
The prized pick, said this official, is an incredibly boring white guy.
That's the prized Romney pick.
I'm going to tell you where this is coming from.
This is coming from consultants who ran McCain's campaign who are trying to make sure they don't get the blame for McCain losing.
And by the way, one might say that in the 08 campaign, was it not the boring white guy who lost?
Might it also be said that it was the boring white guy who wasn't able to engender any passion or enthusiasm among voters for his own campaign.
Might it be said that it was Palin who did all that.
So these people who mismanaged Palin in the first place are now trying to protect themselves, their reputations, their future paychecks within the Republican Party by blaming the await loss on Palin.
Not them.
Now, look at Sarah Palin knows this.
I mean, this is the way politics works.
That's the business.
This is not the first time that a defeat has attempted to be passed off to uh people so that blame doesn't attach to the real culprits.
It's just happening, and the uh uh what the real meaning of it is that the Republican establishment remains distant and detached from the voters of the Republican Party who are going to be the instruments of change, who are going to be the thing the people that really make uh things uh happen here.
I want to go to audio sound bites.
We've got a a little clip here of Deb Fisher.
Last night in Lincoln, Nebraska, at her at her campaign headquarters, she spoke to supporters, and we have a little bit of her victory speech here.
So why'd I run for the Senate?
Well, I wasn't happy with what was happening in Washington.
And I don't think anybody in here is happy with what's happening in Washington either.
We don't need the same type of person who supposedly is gonna represent us in Washington.
I pledge to you tonight that I will roll up my sleeves and I will fight for you in Washington.
Now here's the thing.
In in Nebraska, for those of you that weren't with us in the first hour, what happened?
We had three-way race on the Republican side.
Brüning, the state treasurer, was the establishment guy.
He was up against uh Tea Party candidate named Stenberg, and out of the blue in the latter weeks of the race, came Dave Fisher, Deb Fisher.
She wins.
Now there's all kinds of everybody wants to claim credit, all kinds of people claiming that that Tea Party pulls another one out.
Other people saying, wait a minute, Deb Fisher, not Tea Party.
Stenberg was Tea Party.
Don't get caught up in that.
You know, don't get caught up in this.
Who wants credit for this?
Nothing frustrates me more than a bunch of people trying to glom on and take credit either for their fundraising purposes or for their ego or what have you.
Bottom line is that the establishment candidate, handpicked, went down to defeat, and there were Two conservatives opposing him.
The conservative vote was split, and yet it still was enough for one of the candidates to win.
Whether Deb Fisher's a Tea Party candidate or not, and Stenberg was, is to miss the point.
The Tea Party's not going to win every race.
They're not going to magically have the best candidate every time.
But the thing to take out of this is that normally in a race like this, where you've got three-way split of the votes, the establishment candidate in the past would always win.
With the other two splitting the opposition vote, which in this case was the conservative vote.
And look what happened.
Deb Fisher and Stenberg split the conservative vote, and yet she still got enough votes to beat the establishment guy.
That's momentous, if you uh if you ask me.
Here's her opponent, Deb Fisher's opponent, Bob Carey, former senator of Nebraska, who is going to be her opponent again last night in Omaha.
Every politician that gets up and gives a speech talks about our children and our grandchildren.
So are you putting your money where your mouth is?
Or are you just being another windbag talking about something you're really not going to do anything about?
What in the world?
Did you understand that?
Please translate for that.
I know it's an excerpt and I don't have the context, but still, every politician that gets up and gives a speech talks about our children and our grandchildren.
Okay, I guess that's a swipe at us.
Because we're worried about all the Obama and Democrat Party indebtedness and what it's doing to our children or grand.
Okay, so he gets up and he rips that.
So are you putting your money where your mouth is, or are you just being another windbag talking about something you're really not going to do anything about?
So is he saying that Deb Fisher's not going to do anything about the debt?
Is that what he's saying?
He's talking about tax increases.
You're going to put you.
Oh, okay.
So the only way.
Right, right, right.
I've I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I should have got Democrat raised tax.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
So you can talk all you want about your children and grandchildren, but are you going to be there when it's time to really do something about it?
And that's raise taxes.
Okay, well, he's history.
170,000 more Republican registered voters in Nebraska than there are Democrats and energy out the Wazoo on top of that.
So Bob Kerry wants to talk about tax increases.
Let him let him go ahead.
Now, last night on Greta Van Sustran show on Fox, Mitch Daniels, the governor of Indiana.
She said, I know that you were chief of staff way back when for Senator Luger, he lost to a man supported by the Tea Party.
What do you make of the Tea Party movement in the country right now, Governor Daniels?
It would be a complete misunderstanding to label this a Tea Party phenomenon when in fact the winner had a very strong majority with rank and file Republicans who felt they knew him, had seen a lot of him.
He's been elected twice statewide in just the last six years.
So he's a Republican regular himself, and that was the decisive factor.
Okay.
So uh Bob uh I'm sorry, Mitch Daniels wants everybody to know that Murdock isn't a Republican establishment guy.
He's uh is an elected Republican.
All that's true, by the way.
He's he's been elected statewide office.
But you're gonna you're gonna Tea Party people in Indiana are kind of chuckling at this right now because as far as they were concerned, Murdoch was indeed their candidate.
The Tea Party was who was behind him.
The Republican Party was behind Luger.
So I guess the Republican Party was supporting both of these guys, and so no matter what happens, the Republican Party wins.
Don't believe this Tea Party stuff.
Republican establishment types are rightfully worried about the Tea Party.
They are.
I mean, the Tea Party is real.
It exists.
It has genuine energy.
And the reason why the establishment of Republicans are a little concerned is the Tea Party has almost equal amounts of purpose to displace Democrats as much as establishment Republicans.
Dingy Harry, yesterday, Capitol Hill in Washington, he also took a swipe at the Tea Party.
It's pretty clear to me that the Tea Party direction of the Republican Party is driving them over a cliff.
Really?
How's that?
How do you get there?
How do you Murdoch wins?
It's Luger that's over the cliff.
It's Mr. Bruning, who, by the way, I have no brief against the guy in Nebraska, the state treasurer, John Bruning.
I don't know him.
I'm I'm not.
Don't misinterpret any of this as uh you know, applauding with glee over this.
But this is Republican intramural politics.
I'm not, but uh I don't see where when the Tea Party wins, how's that driving over a cliff unless Dingy Harry wants people to believe that these Tea Party victories guarantee Democrat wins in the general elections, which is clearly their message and what he's hoping for.
And our old buddy Bill Clinton, who's uh who's back by the way.
Bill Clinton's back, and Bill Clinton's back calling for tax increases on the middle class, ladies and gentlemen.
It's right here in the politico.
Bill Clinton said yesterday that President Obama's goal of raising taxes on the rich alone is not enough.
To solve the country's fiscal woes and suggest to that middle class Americans must eventually contribute more.
Look, this this is just me now.
I mean, I'm I'm not speaking for the White House.
I I think I think you could tax me, you know, Hillary and I, we're rich now.
Um, and I I think you could tax me at a hundred percent, and you wouldn't balance that old budget.
Uh the fact of the matter is you could tax me, you could tax Limbaugh, you could tax O'Reilly, you could tax everybody out there, you could tax me and Hillary.
And you still wouldn't balance a budget.
We are all gonna have to contribute to this.
And and yet if middle class people's wages were going up again, and we had some growth in the economy, I don't think they would object to going back tax rates and when I was president.
Now, is this guy doing Obama any favors here?
Bill Clinton comes out, calls for tax increases on the middle class.
Let's take the rates back to when he was president.
It's not you can't.
I mean, what is Obama doing?
Obama's out there on this class envy tour trying to make everybody believe that the reason we have an economic problem is because we have rich people in the first place.
The second thing is to solve it, we've got to tax them.
We got a tax that one percent.
They are the problem.
Here comes the old buddy Bill Clinton.
Well, you know, this is just me speaking.
I mean, I'm not I'm not speaking for the White House, but I'm telling you could tax me, you take everything I got, and that's not gonna balance the budget.
And you can tax all the rich people I know.
You could tax Harvey Weinstein, you could you could tax Spielberg, I mean, every one of these people, you could attack Will Smith, and you still not go balance.
I mean, that is the exact opposite message what Obama wants.
Is it not?
And then to close it out by saying, I think the middle class uh if they had some income, they wouldn't object to paying taxes.
If they had some income.
If we had some growth to the economy, the middle class wouldn't mind.
Obama's out there trying to tell the middle class they're not gonna pay anything.
They're gonna get and get.
They're gonna have nothing but benefits.
That's Obama's message.
Here comes old Bill.
Hey, you can tax me all you want in a close of budget.
In other words, you know what?
Obama doesn't know what he's talking about.
He's telling you that he can raise taxes on the rich, but ain't gonna fix a budget.
He's gonna have to raise taxes on you.
If we're If we have any problem.
The thing is, Clinton's more right than he's wrong here.
That's the irony here is that Clinton's exactly right.
You could tax all the rich.
You can take everything the rich have, and you wouldn't balance the budget ever.
And if you took everything the rich have, you can only do it once.
By definition, they've got no more.
Yes, Mr. Lumbaugh, but they won't then earn it.
Why?
Mr. New Castradi, if you take everything they've got, why go earn any more of it if it's all going to be taken?
She can only take it one time.
Still don't balance the budget.
We got to raise taxes on the middle class.
And we got it in Ed Klein's book.
Bill wants Hillary to run for president.
He wants Hillary back in there, he wants back in there.
The politico says here the former president's remarks about his own tax rate seem to be a reference to Obama's Buffett rule, which proposes higher taxes for the wealthiest Americans.
Clinton asserted that when he was in the White House, very few people thought they were being overtaxed.
I know it's absolute absolutely ridiculous.
But Clinton is the one who called Obama an amateur, and that's the title of Klein's book.
It was Clinton that called Obama an amateur.
So now he's out attacking the Buffett rule.
He's attacking Obama's class envy.
He is promising the middle class or he's telling the middle class that he knows that they wouldn't object to a tax increase.
If they had any income.
Clinton said, uh, look, we we we can't be in a position here where one of the negotiating partners says that that's not negotiable.
You can't, you can't go there.
I mean, not only will we not raise taxes, but we want the Bush tax cuts, and we want more tax cuts, and we want the right to disregard what the CBO says, uh, our budget.
You can't you can't do that.
It's hard to have a deal if there's no arbiter.
Looks to me like, and of course I could be wrong, it looks to me like uh Clinton seems to differ on just about every Obama policy.
And yet he's out there campaigning for him.
While he is uh saying that here, we got here's number eight, uh seven and eight.
Well, let me take a break.
Let's hear we got Clinton saying this.
Of course, you don't need to hear Clinton say it.
You just heard me do it, but we'll do it.
Yesterday and Washington, economic conference sponsored by the Pete Peterson Foundation.
Pete Peterson, a former um Treasury secretary for Nixon.
I have met Pete Peterson.
His wife is Joan Gans Cooney, who runs the children's programming at PBS, Sesame Street and all that.
And he's got a foundation.
Everybody has a foundation.
And Clinton showed up at the Pete Peterson Foundation and uh not happy with what happened to Dick Luger.
The Republican position that tends to prevail in these hot primaries was expressed by the gentleman who beat Senator Luger, who says, I'm just against compromise.
We need to stop it.
It's weak, it's foolish.
Our views are irreconcilable.
We have to force the American people to choose which one of us is right.
If that prevails, we're toast.
We'll look like a Bush League country.
So here comes he's talking about Murdoch, and Murdoch could not have said this any better.
I'm against compromise.
We need to stop it.
It's weak, it's foolish.
Our views are irreconcilable.
Conservatism, irreconcilable.
Why compromise with his what is there, for example, about what Obama's done that we want compromise with?
All the Democrats ever mean by compromise is us caving on our principles and agreeing with them.
They never compromise with us.
They haven't even submitted a budget in over a thousand days.
The Democrats don't care to compromise.
Murdoch knows this.
And here's Clinton, all worried about what this makes the United States sound like.
To who?
A bunch of Western European socialists who can't even manage your own countries?
Who cares?
Murdoch, everybody else trying to save the country.
Now here's Clinton, attempting to be helpful to Obama.
I'm not speaking for the White House, but I think you could tax me at 100%, and you wouldn't balance the budget.
We are all going to have to contribute to this.
And if middle class people's wages were growing up again, and we had some growth in the economy, I don't think they would object to going back to the tax rates that obtained when I was president.
Right.
So Clinton thinks you'd be happy to have your taxes raised too, along with Obama's rich people he wants to wipe out.
That's this is uh this is undercutting uh Obama big time.
Who's next?
Kevin in Lincoln, Nebraska.
Hi, sir.
Great to have you on the program.
Hello.
Hello, Mr. Limbaugh.
This truly is an honor.
Thank you, sir very much.
Everything you do for our country.
I really appreciate it.
Thank you.
This election that we had here in Nebraska with Deb Fisher is very telling on two accounts.
Number one, it should show establishment candidates that they should be very afraid and they should listen to conservatives.
I mean, here you have John Brunning, he's pro-life in a pro-life state.
He's leading the fight on health care, and he gets beat.
Well, how does that happen?
Because he's establishment.
We here in Lincoln just did not trust that he was going to do things.
And the second thing that it illustrates is how open-minded the Tea Party candidate or Tea Party constituency really is.
I mean, you had the Tea Party endorse Don Stenberg, but we're free thinkers.
We look at Deb Fisher and we say, no, she represents the ideals of the Tea Party way more than Don Stenberg does.
So we vote for her.
We don't just follow marching orders like the left does.
Both of those are excellent observations.
What is now if if if Brunig is pro-life and all what what makes him establishment?
I got 10 seconds.
What makes him establishment?
The biggest thing is he's just been there too long and people don't trust that.
Okay.
He says he's this and says he's that, but people don't trust it.
Okay.
Glad you called.
We will be back.
Half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair.
Rush Limboy, your guiding light here at the Distinguished and Prestigious Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
All right, listen carefully, folks, because today is the last day to be automatically entered into the latest two if by tea grill and chill sweepstakes.
Grill and chill.
You simply shop at two if by tea.com right now through eleven fifty-nine PM Pacific time tonight, you'll be automatically entered to win.
And as a special come on, each case of tea is two dollars off.
And by the way, let me say, it's my tea, so you would expect me to say this.
But I wouldn't say this if it weren't true.
It is the best bottled iced tea you're going to find.
You can go to any grocery store or quick shop, and you can find any bottled iced tea, and you get plenty of good ones, don't misunderstand.
There are plenty of good ones out there, but you haven't tasted the best iced tea until you have tasted two if by tea.
Now, these high value prize packs that we offer.
Remember this.
They can always be gifted to somebody else.
If you decide you don't have the space, for example, what we're giving away here is a large grill and a whole lot of prime beef from Allen Brothers.
Now, if you don't have space for a large grill, if you don't have a refrigerator that's large enough to hold the amount of beef you're gonna get here, then you can give your prize away to somebody, somebody in the family, you can divvy it up, you can you can pass it on to a military family in honor of Memorial Day if you want.
Um this prize consists of things that make perfect Father's Day gifts.
Now, for if you didn't tune in yesterday, if this is all news to you, let me recap this.
In honor of the summer, tea season, we are getting you ready for a summer feast.
Now, if you're one of the lucky winners, you will be able to invite your friends and your family, the entire town over for a blowout Memorial Day barbecue.
We have a total of ten lucky winners.
There are three grand prize winners.
The three grand prize winners each will receive a large Allen Brothers gift pack, Including USDA Prime Filet mignon.
This is not beef you can buy in a grocery store.
And again, I'm not ripping the stuff that's in a grocery store.
But this is real prime.
And there's very little prime on each steer.
That's why it is the prime cut.
It's why there's so little of it.
There's not much per steer.
And it all goes to restaurants for the most part, because they mark it up.
It's just the way the market works.
But Allen Brothers makes it available in limited quantities to the general public and to us.
So in addition to the jumbo filets, jumbo hot dogs, and steak burgers.
Allen Brothers is the highest quality, delicious melt in your mouth top grade beef, only served in the finest steakhouses.
There's nothing quite like a perfectly grilled Allen Brothers steak.
And the jumbo hot dogs, not only are they jumbo and huge, but they are second to none.
And each time we serve Allen Brothers at home, people react to it as uh we would expect.
It's the best they've ever tasted.
We invite people over to dinner, and they come primarily because they know that's what we're going to be serving.
People go nuts.
They don't come to visit me anymore.
They're coming to visit the Allen Brothers steak and to eat it.
Now the grand prize winners also receive a top-of-the-line grill, not some little kettle thing out there that holds a couple burgers and hot dogs.
Not some rinky dink little thing that you don't care if it gets rained on or you take to the campsite.
This is similar to the type of grill that we have at our home.
It's a huge mama jama.
It's built to serve an army of people.
It's valued at over $1,500 retail.
So in addition to the best steak and the best grill, the grand prize winners also get 10 cases of the best tea in the country as we inaugurate tea season, Memorial Day, and so forth.
And a very cool iron brander that brands USA on your steak right before you're ready to serve it.
A grilling apron, personally signed by me, L Rushmow, and a set of new personalized engraved grilling tools.
When we do something, folks, we go all in.
And you know the drill.
To be automatically entered into the sweepstakes, simply shop at 2ifbyT.com right now through tonight at 1159 p.m. Pacific time.
All the official rules are posted at 2ifbytea.com along with pictures.
This is fabulous.
I predict, I mean, you you can gift this stuff, but you're you're going to want to you're going to want to share it with friends and family and so forth.
You haven't tasted Allen Brothers, you have a treat if you are one of the winners.
So it's all explained there.
All you have to do is shop between now and 11.59 p.m. Pacific tonight.
You're automatically entered, and there are ten lucky winners.
The three grand prize winners get their whole shebang.
To TWO, twoif by tea dot com.
Andrea in Omaha, you're next.
I'm glad you waited.
Welcome to the EIB network.
Thank you, Rush.
It's good to talk with you again.
The last time we spoke was um right before the Iowa primary.
I am the pharmacist who works in uh over in Atlantic, Iowa, but I live in Omaha.
And I call to tell you that in the past I've met Don Stenberg and John Burning, and uh had not met State Senator Deb Fisher, but she served in our unicameral legislature for many years.
And um is from Western Nebraska, so I think she's got a better perspective about the state in general, because Burning and Stenberg are kind of urban guys, I think.
And the thing that really...
If I may...
There really isn't an urban in Nebraska.
Um it's not an insult.
I mean, there are okay, I take it back.
There are large cities.
I say this with love and affection.
But you're your what your primary point, she's from the Western Park, she's a rancher.
She is of the dirt.
She is of the soil.
She is grassroots up.
That's what you're saying.
Yes, and it made a difference for me.
I don't usually I in fact, this is the first time I ever really took into account someone's endorsement of a candidate.
Although I did know that Mark Levin endorsed Don Stenberg.
But when Kalen came out for uh State Senator Fisher, I said, that's it.
I'm voting for her.
So Palin was your moving factor.
It was, because I don't think people realize she has a lot of respect among people out here in the heartland.
And as a mom and a working mom and um I mean I just have the greatest respect for her.
I don't care about her gaffs.
I don't care about her, you know what people say about her.
I relate to her as a gas.
There haven't really been that many palin gaps.
Many of them we have come to learn have been made up or blown out of proportion, exaggerated by uh by the such as how many of you to this day think that Palin actually said to Katie Courick, oh yeah I'm an expert on foreign policy.
I can see Russia from my backyard.
She never said that never said it.
But people end up believing it and so forth.
Well look Andrea I'm glad you called thanks much I I appreciate it.
So there's a now the Palin endorsement came in late and there are some people look I I don't want to get in the middle of these internecine battles but some people are claiming that Palin waited to get the lay of the land and then made the endorsements in the last two weeks.
Some people are saying Palin is mostly endorsing women, the Mama Grizzly thing.
This is all part of the competition.
Herman Cain endorsed Deb Fischer after Palin did.
And so there are a lot of people that, when you have a victory like this, who, "I did it," they said.
"I did it." the candidate is uh not not to be taken out of the equation no Herman's back out there.
Herman's a big two if by T fan by the way remember Herman didn't know it.
He was in South Carolina Republican leader there gave him a bottle I mean I didn't know this is going to happen.
And Herman's an honest guy he could have said Rush I think you need to work on this if he thought it wasn't any good he would have said that he's an honest guy rush I think you need but he loved it so uh we sent him some and a bill the bill said comp.
On it.
Anyway let me uh let's do Angela in Montclair Virginia one more here before we go to our brief timeout.
Hi Angela Hello Rush uh 247 Dittoes I just want to let you know you should stop saying stop acting as if you're not um supportive of the Tea Party that somehow you're rhino uh or uh for the establishment Republican I'm not a member of the Tea Party I don't wait wait wait say that what I I need to stop saying what I didn't understand.
You act as if you're not supportive of the Tea Party, that somehow or another you're part of the establishment, which to me is another name for RINO.
That's how you try to make Governor Daniels appear.
I'm from Indiana.
I don't support the Tea Party.
I agree with Governor Daniels.
There were a lot of us that just did.
We were so tired of Lugar.
And so there were plenty of people who weren't part of the establishment.
and wasn't part of the Tea Party that just wanted Luger out because now wait just a second I I I have never said that I think everybody in the establishment is a rhino but Governor Daniels is an established Republican there's no question that he is he would say so.
Well, I'm not an establishment Republican.
I happen to like Governor Daniels.
He's extraordinary on budget matters.
Look, I called you before about Governor Daniels, and you and I had it out.
I'll only call you when I disagree with you, so I don't call very much.
Anyway, I just felt that it just seems to me that you try to act as if you're not part of the Tea Party, if you're not supportive of the Tea Party, that somehow or another you're pushing the establishment.
Nope, haven't said that.
You are inferring that.
that I have never said it which means you're running around with a guilty conscience.
No I'm not you know what I have never ever, I've never inferred it and I've never said it.
Well, let me say this.
I joined Rush 24-7 about I think in 2007, because you said there would be a fourth hour.
I have yet to experience the fourth hour.
See, you are a malcontent.
I am not.
I just think that's a good one.
Yes, you are.
You are a talk snugly a while ago.
You said no, email it.
No, I really want to tell him this myself.
So anyway.
All right.
Well.
What did Snurdly tell you to email?
About the uh that I've been a member of Rush 24-7 since 2007, because I wanted to experience the fourth hour, and you haven't done it.
Since I've joined since I've been a member of us, but I enjoy West 24-7.
I still have it, so I just wanted to have an experience.
You're just trying to stir it up out there, Angela, but I love you for it.
I love you.
Absolutely.
Angelo, what do you what do you do for a living?
I'm a stay-at-home mom.
Are you real?
Okay, cool.
Yeah.
I enjoy it.
I have I have five daughters, but two are adults and three are in school, and my husband is uh service military, so I enjoy it.
Well.
It's a wonderful life.
I don't know how you could possibly be mad at me then.
I'm not mad at you.
You would have fooled party.
Snerdley, let me tell you what.
You mentioned Snerdley before I took your call.
He said, look, she's a little mad.
She's uh she said not terribly angry, but she's a little put out with you, so you need to be on guard.
Well, I I just I I the way it seems that you try to to phrase everything is you have to be Tea Party in order to be legitimate.
No, no, that's you are again.
I'm I'm telling you, you are inferring that.
I've not I've not said it.
I've I've I've not even tried to imply it.
There's certainly more than Tea Party in establishment factions in the um in the Republican Party.
Yeah, I'm just flat out conservative.
I'm I'm conservative Republican.
Well, join the club.
Join the club.
I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.
So I mean you you have an iPad.
Uh no.
You know what one is?
Yes.
All right.
Well, I'm gonna send you one so that when I do the next fourth hour, you'll be able to watch it on it.
Oh, okay.
All right.
Okay, so you hang on.
Snerdley will get where we're supposed to send it to you, and you'll have it tomorrow, okay?
All right, thanks a lot.
You want you want a white one or a black one?
Uh black one.
Black one.
Do you care if it's with ATT or Verizon?
Verizon, please.
Okay.
Done.
You know, we'll be back.
Just don't go.
The latest Rasmussen poll.
Romney 51.
Obama 43, North Carolina.
That's where the Democrat National Convention is scheduled.
They are pulling uh ads, not running ads in Missouri.
The Obama uh ad against uh uh what Romney did supposedly when he was at Bain, except he wasn't at Bain when this ad criticizes Bain for what they did.
It's a total, even Democrats are claiming the ad is is worthless, misleading, ineffective.
That ad is not even gonna be run in Missouri.
They're not gonna buy any time there.
So people are wondering, oh, is that does that mean that uh uh uh Missouri no longer a swing state?
And just to remind you, mention this um in the opening of the program, the DNC is pulling all their mentioned this yesterday, the DNC is pulling all their money out of Wisconsin.
In the Walker recall.
The DNC is not providing any more money to that.
That is an indication that they think the die is cast.
It's you know, I I I don't want to run the risk here of creating any overconfidence.
I really don't want to do that.
I don't want to do anything that could suppress turnout by making people, well, it's so much enthusiasm.
I don't have to show up.
I don't I don't want to do that.
But somebody has to tell you because uh it it's it's uh it's it's being reported such the opposite.
Well, I'm telling you that Obama is in deep trouble.
The Democrat Party is in deep trouble here.
And I wouldn't rule out something happening wherever the Democrat convention is.
I don't know what it would be, but I'm just, this is not at all where they thought they would be.
The problems that they have are not at all the problems they thought they were going to have.
They really believe that they could recreate this whole messianic type mindset that people had for Obama from 2008.
They really thought that they could simply tie Romney to Bush and send people running back to Obama in droves.
They are not the smartest people in the world.
Liberals, Democrats, strategists are not the smartest people in the world.
Now, as President Obama can do a lot of things later on in the year, he can forgive student loans.
He can he can uh pay everybody's mortgage off if he wants to.
He can pull all kinds of rabbits out of his hat.
He can he can invade Iran.
Any number of things.
Nothing's in the bag.
I'm just telling you that where they're sitting right now is not a good place, and we will be back.
It really is the fastest three hours in media.
Two of them are already in a can, and we've only got one more left.
And there's still lots to jam pack into it, which we will do.
Can't wait to get back here.
