Time Text
Greetings, my friends, and welcome back.
Great to have you, Rushlin, both serving humanity would have my brain tied behind my back, just to make it fair.
We are here daily at the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
There are no degrees and there are no graduates because the learning never stops.
Great to have you here.
Telephone number 800 282-2882 and the email address L Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
So three million Republican voters stayed home on election day.
Three million.
Predominantly white voters stayed home.
The media is all over the place with the fact that Republicans lost the white vote.
Can't get the white vote.
They did lose the white vote, but Democrats didn't get it.
They just didn't show up, and it wasn't voter suppression that didn't turn them out.
What would be the reason?
Three million voters didn't show up.
Let's go through the possibilities.
It could be that there are a number.
We've talked to them, we've had them call, we got them in fact on hold.
A number of Republicans tired of moderate nominees.
They've sent the Republican Party money for years to the hell with it.
If you if you're gonna eschew conservatism, I'm not giving you any money, and I'm not voting for you, and we've heard them call here and threaten this.
Never believed them, maybe.
Could also have some evangelicals in that group that said, you know what?
I'm tired of Republicans not reaching out to me.
I'm tired of making fun of me, I'm tired of like Mormons, who knows what it is.
You could have any number of reasons why why these three million didn't show up, but they are the difference.
If these three million had voted, Romney's popular vote total would have exceeded Obama's by a hundred and eighty thousand.
I don't know what it would mean, electoral college yet.
That hasn't been analyzed.
But this was not an election lost because of demography.
It wasn't an election lost because we lost the women vote, a Hispanic vote.
We didn't turn our vote out.
It's just that simple.
Could it be a ladies and gentlemen?
Three million Republicans sat at home because they didn't see enough of a conservative campaign.
These these are the things that have to be pondered.
While the party beats itself up over amnesty and single women and contraception, but I'm I'm just gonna tell you, the Republican Party, if you think that the only reason you're not winning presidential race is because you're not for amnesty and because you're not for abortion, you are you if you change to that, if you moderate or modify your positions, you're gonna cease to exist.
Because those who are with you are going to abandon you.
You're gonna you you I'm not no, I'm not trying to sound threatening.
I'm trying to be helpful.
In fact, that's my middle name.
I mean that's all I ever try to do is help.
Anybody.
Always said this was going to be a turnout election.
Now I don't want to be misunderstood either.
I'm not saying that the Republicans couldn't do a better job with some of these minority voters, but you'd better understand why they're not voting for you.
And in terms of the Hispanic vote, it is not because of immigration policy.
Hispanics are voting for Democrats because any other reason people vote Democrats.
They're the party of free stuff.
They are the party of Santa Claus.
Boy, you know, folks, that I can't tell you the grief I'm getting from the left over that comment.
It must have hit home.
You know what?
Because it's everybody understands that.
You don't need a position paper with all kinds of footnotes and stuff to explain the Democratic Party.
Yeah, Santa Claus, we're outnumbered by people who vote Santa Claus.
And it's like a veil has been lifted and they want to close it.
They don't like me to see it that way.
But you think I'm exaggerating.
Under Obama, the welfare rolls in this country increased by 32%.
Food stamps.
You know, 71% increase in the number of people on food stamps.
We can't deny what's happening here.
To and in our country.
And bear in mind Barack Obama removed the work requirements from both of these programs.
I'm gonna say this again so that nobody thinks I'm just glossing over it.
Because I happen to think that it's important.
The Republican convention.
You look at every minority that We put in a prominent role of that convention.
Every one of them, every one of them, had reached the pinnacle of their chosen careers.
They were brilliant, articulate, they were died in the wool, conservatives.
They were great representatives of the American way.
And they all had a common story.
They all achieved what they achieved, and they did it by hard work.
Every one of them had an up from nothing story.
I'm sorry if you heard this yesterday and you think it's repetitive, but it needs to be said over and over.
Because there are lessons to be learned from this.
Because after that convention, I heard I heard people on Fox yesterday, why did it work?
Why did the Republican convention work?
Doug Schoen, Republicans didn't show inclusiveness.
Why didn't it work?
Is a great question.
Why doesn't Republicans, Marco Rubio, Alan West, Mia Love, Clarence Thomas?
The list is endless of highly achieved, accomplished, great moral character Republicans who are minorities.
Why doesn't it attract any of the black vote?
Why does it attract any Hispanic vote?
There's a reason there's answers to this.
Why doesn't it work?
You got to have courage to face the truth of the answer.
Under Obama, welfare roles increased by 32%.
Food stamp participation shot up, 71%, 47 million Americans on food stamps.
Obama strips the work requirement out of both.
We have 23 million people unemployed in this country.
They all have, for the most part, telephone, the place to live, a flat screen, a car, and they're eating.
That's not the way people lived on unemployment, say in a Great Depression, say in the 1970s, even.
Just you had to find a job if you wanted those things.
You don't have to now.
And when a party presents as its route to success hard work, and the other parties presenting Santa Claus, what is going to win?
Santa Claus is free stuff, the other side is stuff that you work for and earn.
This is where the country is.
This is an honest appraisal of where we are, and we're slowly becoming outnumbered in this way by these demographics, which count.
As to immigration, again, we are not getting the Hispanic vote because of our immigration policy because Hispanics are not voting for Democrats because of their immigration policy.
That is not why.
Why do the unions not oppose illegal immigration?
Because their jobs are not threatened by it.
And why is that?
You can answer that yourself.
The Democrat Party needs a permanent underclass.
It needs an underclass of people who aren't working, who get the benefits from Santa Claus so that the Democrats will continue to get a decent number of votes from that voting block.
And as people start working and become self-sufficient, they need the Democrat Party less.
And so those people, if they abandoned the Democrat Party, need to be replaced.
Hello, illegal immigration.
Folks, it is what it is.
We didn't lose the election on Tuesday because we're pro-choice or pro-life.
We did not lose the election because single women hate us and don't like us.
That's not why we lost.
We might not be getting a majority of those votes, but when three million of our own people don't show up, it doesn't matter who on the Democrat side we're not getting.
I want to take you back to this program and me.
January 6th of this year.
We were in the middle of the Republican primary.
And at the time, the uh Republican conservative media was talking about electability.
Who we gonna nominate, who can win?
And I would I raised my hand and I said, you know, the Democrats did this.
You remember back in um 2004, going into Iowa, they thought Howard Dean was the nominee, leading every poll, you could clean it up, and in Iowae got wiped out.
And the Democrats panicked, and they went to John Kerry because they said, well, of the people we have left, he's the only one who's electable.
What happened to him?
So let's go back, shall we?
Because I want you to listen to this knowing that there are three million Republican voters that stayed home.
They didn't vote.
Don't know why yet.
All we can do is speculate.
It's time to strip this beer.
I have just alluded to this.
I'm going to tell you again.
This whole business of electability.
I've been hearing about it for weeks.
Months.
We all have our circle of friends.
I too have my circle of friends.
Contrary to what you think, my circle of friends are no smarter than you.
They're no smart anybody just because they're my friends doesn't mean they're smart.
They're not stupid.
But what I'm saying is they're just like anybody else.
This is the point.
That's a good thing.
I get frustrated at this electability, but that's that's how the Democrats chose John Kerry, by the way, who served in Vietnam.
When Howard Dean failed in 2004 in Iowa, they panicked to say, well, you gotta get somebody who can win if they thought Kerry could.
This electability reason to nominate somebody is flawed from the get go because the reasons that people think somebody can win are flawed.
As evidenced by what I just told you.
Let me tell you, folks, I wouldn't have one ounce of doubt about Rick Perry.
I've been hoping Rick Perry would catch fire.
But I have people in my sphere who don't want to vote for Perry, and largely they're women because he sounds too much like Bush, he's too stupid, he's too hesitating in his speech, and Obama will clean his clock in a debate.
And I look at him and I scratch my head.
Have you looked at what he's done as governor?
Do you look at what his tax policy?
I don't care.
He embarrasses me.
Okay, fine.
Let's move on.
What about Santorum?
Too extreme.
Cares about abortion.
Okay, let's see.
How about Kane?
He can't talk either.
This is what people around me.
He can't talk either.
Okay, what about Bachman?
She's too shrill.
She's too short.
She's a woman.
She's only been in Congress for five years.
She never prayer.
Okay?
Write her off.
What about, let's see.
How about a huntsman?
He's a phony.
Plus the guy worked for Obama.
He was a ambassador to China.
Come on.
Let's be serious.
This guy's not a conservative.
You get to Romney, and these people all said, now, there's a guy sound smart.
He's seasoned.
He's been at this for a number of years.
He's composed.
He looks good, and he could beat Obama in a debate.
And in every one of these instances, folks, what's been frustrating to me is not one reason rooted in policy has been cited as a reason to support or not support somebody.
It's been very frustrating to me to see how surface and undeep, if I may use that term, people are about this.
I know why it's the case, but it still burns me.
January 6th of this year.
And I was recounting my frustration at listening to my friends tell me why none of the Republican nominees had a prayer, why they wouldn't support them.
And in no instance was anybody rejected because of policy.
And in no instance was anybody supported because of policy.
It was all about who they thought could and could not win.
I must take a brief, obscene profit timeout now, my friends, but don't panic, as I will be back.
After a while, don't go away.
Heather McDonald of the Manhattan Institute has written at, I think, National Review.
I forget where she wrote.
It's out there.
75% of the Hispanic vote votes for the Democrat Party because of the social safety net and progressive taxation.
25% do not.
75% of the Hispanic vote votes for Santa Claus, the Democrat Party.
Nothing to do with immigration policy.
Now, the Wall Street Journal says that's true.
And a lot of conservatives.
No, no, no, no.
We can reach these people.
These Hispanics, they share conservative values just like everybody else.
Well, okay, then if they do, why not run on them?
Why not run on these conservative values?
Such as why not tell these people that Barack Obama believes on post abortion abortion.
Why not tell them that?
Why not tell them about I mean if they really respond to conservative values, if that's the way to reach them, run on them.
Don't whisper them, don't act embarrassed of them.
But see, the GOP says, no, no, no, we can't raise the social issues that's going to scare people off is to scare the independents off.
But wait.
You you're telling us that Hispanics share our views in this regard.
Shouldn't we reach out to them then with those issues?
Well, we have to whisper it.
You've got to be very careful because I'm just saying.
But I'm telling you today, in the postmortem, the number one issue that the Republican intelligentsia is talking about is abortion.
I'm sorry, immigration.
And abortion's a close second, by the way, but it's immigration.
And that is not why the Republicans lost.
Let me give you another illustration.
I mentioned this earlier, and Heather McDonald mentions this too.
In the wee hours of the morning after it became apparent that California Governor Jerry Brown won big.
Jerry Brown convinced voters in his state to raise taxes on themselves.
Proposition 30.
Prop 30 had the full support of unions, which will reap a windfall from the taxes imposed on the rich.
One of the taxes that Californians voted for is a tax on high earners.
It's retroactive.
It will stay in place for seven years.
A retroactive income tax on high earners in California voted for by Californians.
There are not enough California high earners for this to pass.
If only they voted for it.
Now, Heather McDonald says that you're going to break this down.
You're going to find that quite a few traditional Democrat voters voted to raise taxes retroactively on the rich.
And among those voters, you'll find enough, or a lot of Hispanic voters and a lot of female voters and a lot of other minority voters.
Because that's how they're aligned.
They vote for two things, Santa Claus and progressive taxation on the rich.
Now the imposition of these new taxes in California means, according to Governor Moonbeam, that he won't have to enact harsh spending cuts on the screwels and the universities.
Now we're going to keep track of this.
I've eye cowed this one.
I listen to my ICAL.
Governor Brown said because the people of California voted to raise taxes on themselves, there will not be any cuts for schools and universities.
You see, California voters have been promised with these taxes they imposed on themselves that their budget problems are over.
So for the next seven years, the Democrats in California ought not harangue all of you people out there with tales of woe about budget deficits because it's been fixed.
at least when it comes to the scrolls and the universities.
The teachers'unions, every one of them, should all live happily ever after now for the next seven years with the money that you have voted retroactively, raising taxes on yourselves via Prop 30.
And, of course, they shouldn't spend more than they take in, right?
This new windfall revenue is going to cover everything, and there shouldn't be any new spending now.
And there won't be, of course, the governor promised.
We will learn soon, by the way, if California Democrats have a supermajority in both branches of their assembly, the legislature.
They're two seats shy.
And some of the close racing, in fact, it may be over.
I haven't I haven't heard how it how it turned out.
But if if the Democrats win total dictatorial control over the California legislature, then they can impose higher taxes whenever they want without asking you to vote for it yourself.
And not even Moonbeam could stop him if he was inclined.
Which uh which he won't be.
In fact, LA Times has an editorial on this.
By the way, California is where we are.
California is almost, folks, uh microcosm for where the country is headed.
Virtually.
I mean, they're balkanized out there.
It's a bunch of different states.
The rich live in a few places, and the rest of the state is dying.
It's shame, actually.
LA Times editorial.
Message to Sacramento, tax, but don't overspend.
Yes.
You see, folks, in return for backing Proposition 30, voters expect an end to the fiscal shenanigans that have sent the state careening from one budget crisis to another.
So California has a 600 billion state debt, 600 billion, a projected 16 billion dollar deficit.
Well, look what's happened.
You voted tax increases on yourself and the problem solved.
You've been told now the problem solved.
Oh.
Oh, geez.
Keep a sharp eye, folks.
All right, folks, it is official.
Official.
It is official.
The AP just published that the Democrats have indeed gained a supermajority in the California Senate.
That means they got two-thirds of the Senate.
They've got the assembly.
And that means they can raise taxes.
They got Moonbeam over there in the governor's office across the street.
That's not across the street, the hotels across.
Anyway, they got Moonbeam there.
They don't need Republicans to raise taxes now.
You're they can raise taxes every day.
And they've said they're not going to because you just raised taxes on yourself in California.
Retroactively for seven years.
You just raised taxes, and that could solve all the problems for seven years.
No more complaining from the teachers and the unions, because and sixteen billion dollar deficit, gone.
You just raise taxes on yourself.
And and they says won't have to mean emergency calls anymore for spending cuts.
No, it won't mean emergency calls or more tax increases because you voted tax increase.
In fact, Willie Brown, the former speaker of the California said, let me find it.
I keep meaning to get to the phones, and I'm gonna get to the phones, but I got Willie Brown here talking about this, if I can find it.
Soundbite number, let's see, number 18.
Last night on CNBC on the Cudlow Report.
Larry Cudlow, do you really think it's a good idea?
First of all, upper income people have very volatile income, particularly California.
Silicon Valley, you have a bad year, you could lose your income.
You never get the sales tax.
You never get the income tax if they lose everything out there.
This stuff's been tried time and time again.
Uh, Mr. Mayor raising taxes on the rich.
I understand it passed.
I understand that Californians voted to raise taxes on themselves.
What I'm asking you, Mr. Brown, is what makes you think this time it's going to succeed?
It's going to succeed because the people blessed it.
You have not had a direct blessing by the people.
The people said, yes, I'm willing to pay more to do the things that need to be done.
You see, we had on the table a huge number of cuts.
If this measure did not pass, and the cuts were already in place.
They were going to be automatic.
As of today, you would be discussing programs you're backing out of, universities, sections that you'd be closing, schools that you would be in fact shutting down, stopping the number of days you have for schools.
So see, this is gonna work because you fools blessed it.
You people blessed it.
You voted for it yourself.
That's the difference in that tax.
See, if the legislature had authored the tax increase and the governor had said, that wouldn't maybe not have worked.
But since you voted for it in California, it's it's give it's automatic.
This is outrageous.
I th the the the spending in that state, the level of taxation in that state, the streets ought to be paved with gold out there.
And and California's exactly what Obama wants to do.
Folks, we've got a uh we have a microcosm.
California's a uh a bellwether.
Let's watch California economy takes off and let's watch the no spending cuts for seven years and let's no more taxes for seven years.
Let's keep a sharp eye.
I got it I killed.
I got it I called.
Here's uh Sylvia as we start on the phone, she's in Corpus Christi, Texas.
Great to have you on the program.
Hi, hello, and welcome.
Hola y muy buenos días, senhor Limbaugh.
Gracias por hablar conmigo.
Mr. Limbaugh, how are you?
I'm so grateful that you've taken my call.
We be in, gracias.
I'm a fifth generation Hispanic, and as you can see, I'm bilingual.
Uh I am a retired consultant in marketing for the Hispanic market, and I can't tell you how many people I try to reach out to in the Republican Party, and I was going to offer my services for free, but nobody ever called me back.
And I knew Wait, wait, wait, well, I want to understand it.
What I want to understand what you're saying.
You you have expertise in reaching the Hispanic market.
Yes.
You you wanted to help the Republicans reach them for persuading them to get their votes.
Yes.
And the Republicans wouldn't listen to you.
Nobody called me back.
Nobody called you back.
Well look.
I guess because my last name is Morales.
They don't call me back, Sylvia.
I mean that don't but when you say I'm gonna give you something for free that will help you in understanding a market that they're not aware of.
What do you mean?
Wait a second.
Or who do you mean somebody says they're gonna give you something?
It's is me as a company calls you, Mr. Limbaugh, and say, Mr. Limbaugh, I have these services that I can offer you that will help you gain listenership.
Yeah.
Would you and I'm not gonna charge you anything?
Would you listen to me?
No.
I'd be suspicious you want something on the back end.
No.
No, no, no.
I would look at I don't believe f I if somebody wants to offer me something for free, my red flag goes up.
No, no, please, please.
Now wait a minute.
I'm not I'm not I'm not trying to be insulting.
It's not that when somebody offers me something for nothing, it's not that I don't believe in that that there's something for nothing.
I I think it's that they want something or they're they they wouldn't be calling me.
They want something and they're not willing to tell me what it is.
Well, because I'm Hispanic, I think maybe I don't totally agree with that, but we'll leave it at that.
How's that?
Well, in your case, you're offering the Republican Party essentially free advice.
Yes.
And you couldn't interest them in it.
Not one.
Not one.
Well without knowing, I mean, uh were you just cold calling?
Are you going, hi, this is Sylvia, and I got a way for you to win the election.
Because I guarantee you, it th that would be a threat to some.
They hire experts to supposedly tell them this.
They could have looked at you as uh like if you called me and told me you know you got something that I could I could use to reach another fifteen million people as program.
I think yeah, right, right.
I mean, I'm the expert here.
No, I wanted I just wanted to have somebody speak with me and say I can help you con with consulting.
Okay, what would you let's let's cut to it.
What would you have told them had they taken your call?
I would have told them, and it's very simple.
Um there's three things basically for a Hispanic.
In the United States, we have different Hispanics, the cu Cuban, the the Mexican, uh the people that come from South America.
I you know, I I had a sneaking suspicion you were gonna go there, and I have a sneaking suspicion that the Cubans are not all that popular, are they?
Uh they're not, are they?
And why aren't the Cubans popular in the overall Hispanic group?
Because there are unfortunately for the Hispanic population, they're all different and they all have their different local customs, and uh they're very protective of it.
Uh and but isn't it Sylvia, isn't isn't there a uh I'll I'll whisper this so nobody else hears.
Isn't there a uh racial component to this?
The Cubans it's uh not you know I mean a lot of times, and I'll be very frank and honest with you, knowing all of the markets that I know, they're very um uh a society that's very uh they're very close to their Cuban roots, and I know some of the older population cubanos eventually want to go back to Cuba.
Well uh and they don't want to they don't want to let it go.
Well, but the Republicans get a large part of the Cuban vote, uh particularly South Florida already, and it's it's oriented uh I can't win here.
I just can't.
It's it's oriented the the reason that the Cubans are not that popular of the Hispanic divisions you've talked about.
It's a race thing.
Yes, it is.
It's a race, they're just not quite dark as dark they and they're they're oriented toward work.
No, the the thing that we we and I'm gonna say we collectively, the thing that we all have in common is Spanish.
And that is something that uh we're very proud that we can speak a second language.
It's helped me in my career.
Right.
And I think that it probably would have helped the Republican Party to have a consultant uh tell them about the different markets.
Yeah, you know, so I have I have thought, I have really thought at some point we should do a Spanish translation of this program.
I think she's on to something there.
I really Sylvia, I have to go.
I really gonna I'm glad you called.
I really uh uh appreciate it.
Thank you so much.
Hope to hear from you again.
Brief time out, more phone calls when we get back.
And back to the phones.
Lavonia, Michigan, here on the Rush Limbaugh program.
Ken, great to have you back.
I know you've been on the program before the only guy.
Now there's a woman from Lavonia that calls too.
Well, right.
So I know you've been here before.
Yes, and I appreciate it.
I appreciate you took my call.
Rush, the establishment, Republicans, uh just don't understand us uh voters out here.
Now, I'm a conservative, I'm a constitutionalist, I believe in uh uh the traditional view of marriage, and I'm also pro-life.
And I've always voted up until now Republican.
But I'm telling you, Rush, and I'm telling all those Republicans out there that don't get it, I will not vote for another moderate.
If if you want to lose my vote, all you have to say is, I'm willing to reach across the aisle.
You know, and when I can ask you a question, and I want you to be very honest with me on this.
Sure.
There's there this is not a trick.
Uh I'm just just for my own edification.
I noticed, I pointed out to Catherine.
Last two weeks of this campaign.
It might have been the last three weeks, but Romney started focusing on and using that phrase, reaching across the aisle.
Now, were you with Romney at any point in this campaign and then decided not to vote, or were you always opposed after Romney got the nomination?
I was opposed to Romney because I knew he was a moderate from the beginning.
I knew not only Romney, but other Republicans.
How could you do this though?
How can knowing full well what the alternative Mitt Romney isn't the problem?
Mitt Romney would not have been the problem.
How could you essentially vote for Barack Obama?
I did not vote uh directly for Barack Obama understand what you're saying.
I cast the vote rush.
I knew my candidate couldn't win for the uh Constitution Party candidate.
Only because there again, what does the Democrats have to offer?
The destruction of our country because their status.
Now, if you're gonna tell me you're a Republican candidate that you want to reach across the aisle, you uh like John Boehner want to go and play golf with the president, uh I I can't support you in that case, Rush.
No matter what?
No, because we we've seen the destruction that to our country that has occurred, and Yeah, we have, and you know, you know now we got four more years of it, or at least two.
We we've got this could have been arrested.
There is no comparison, Mitt Romney to Barack Obama.
Look, I know you're part of the three million stayed home, and I understand the principle involved.
I do.
I you I what let me ask you, and there's no way you can know, I just want your opinion.
The of the three million Republican people voters that stayed home, you think most of them are like you that they are just dissatisfied that the Republicans nominated what you thought was another moderate?
Yes.
I really believe, since from our point of view, the moderate is not going to fix the problems that our country needs to have fixed, but to continue along the same lines.
Uh yes, I I I think that's a very important thing.
How can you but you you he uh Romney did not want to continue these policies on jobs, government spending and all this sort of stuff.
You'd not believe him when he said what he said about creating jobs and reducing government and so forth.
You didn't believe him?
Well, Rush, the last four years, for example, every time the uh debt ceiling was hit, the Republicans unfortunately voted to raise it again.
Um we need to get conservative Republicans in Washington.
And if the Republican Party wants to vote, the support of conservatives like myself, they've got to get conservatives to run.
If they don't want to win the White House, if they don't want to control Washington, then just keep doing what they're doing.
So you engaged in a protest vote, essentially, and you did so in sufficient numbers that you have secured the re-election of a of somebody truly destructive of the traditional as founded American way of life.
Well, I totally How do you live with that?
Well, because I feel because you you're you're you you're making the perfect somebody it wasn't on the ballot this year.
The perfect wasn't on the ballot.
Well, Rush, I think that the way the three million people looked at it, a moderate Republican will still lead our country over the cliff, not as quickly, not as fast, but over the cliff.
And so if we're gonna be going over the cliff at a hundred miles an hour, which is under Obama, or seventy miles an hour, which is under a moderate Republican, we're still going over the cliff.
So you just want to get it over with.
Well, I want to get the Republican leadership to wake up and we've got to get conservatives.
Ken, I hate to tell you, but that's not the message they're taking from this election, as you know, if you've been listening to the program today.
They know that three million didn't show up.
If they if they come to believe that this the three million didn't show up because they don't like mud, they're just gonna get mad at you.
Like a Democrats get mad.
They're they're the the Republican at least what I've seen so far on TV and read, uh, and it's coming from the so-called conservative media too.
They they think they grew uh goofed up by by failing to get the Hispanic vote and the single women vote.
They think they goofed up uh on on the on the demography side, which tells me that you're gonna continue to be pretty unhappy with the direction they go.
Well, the uh establishment of the Republican Party has unfortunately been in Washington too long.
I'm just gonna tell you, it's it's yeah, I look I understand what you're doing, but you gave us Bill Clinton and now Barack Obama.
It's your vote is your vote.
I understand.
I saw this figure, I saw this three million, didn't show up.
I saw it yesterday morning, it didn't register, even mentioned it at the beginning of this, it didn't register to last night when I compared it.
Because if you guys had all shown up, Romney would have uh beat Obama popular vote by 180,000.
Those are hard numbers.
That's real hard numbers.
I don't know what it would have meant electoral college wise.
Um, thanks for the call.
Back after this.
Okay, my friends, that's it.
Another exciting busy broadcast hour, busy broadcast minutes expired, wrapped up.
If there's a 70% chance of curing your cancer, but you're hold out for 100%, is that what you would do?
Or would you would you go for the 70% chance?
Takes all kinds, anyway.
