Everybody\u2019s looking at it through the Obama-can\u2019t-lose prism, and the prism you need to look at this through is Obama could very easily lose this election, and nobody knows it better than him.  He\u2019s not gonna have a billion dollars.  He\u2019s told Pelosi and Reid, (paraphrasing) &#8220;I\u2019m not giving you any money. I\u2019m not even gonna fundraise for you. I\u2019m gonna do one event for the House, one event for the Senate, and that\u2019s it.&#8221; He\u2019s not gonna fundraise, which they\u2019re probably happy about.  He\u2019s not gonna be on the campaign trail for \u2019em. I guarantee, they\u2019re gonna be happy about that.  I don\u2019t believe these polls that show Obama 50% approval. It\u2019s a trumped-up 800 respondent poll of adults, not even likely voters. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_60136\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushStopObamaismFlag.jpg\"\/><BR\/>You see the exit polls of Super Tuesday?  Economy, economy, economy, economy. That\u2019s what people care about.  There\u2019s no &#8220;war on women.&#8221;  They asked these Republican women at the exit polls, &#8220;Do you think there\u2019s a &#8216;war on women\u2019?&#8221;  These women are concerned about the economy.  They don\u2019t think there\u2019s a war on against them, other than Barack Obama doing damage to the economy.  The real war is the one Obama\u2019s conducting against us and on our private sector economy.  Seventy, 75% of the exit polls: the economy, the economy, the economy.  Well, guess whose it is?  It ain\u2019t Bush\u2019s.  They can\u2019t lay that one off on me.  Owns it, Barack Obama.  It\u2019s his.  After three years, this economy, every bit of it, is Obama\u2019s.  And they know that people know it. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>So don\u2019t tell me that Joe the Plumber doesn\u2019t have a chance.  All this talk about the Democrats taking back the House.  Ha!  I\u2019m not saying it can\u2019t happen.  Folks, it\u2019s not written in stone.  It\u2019s not what\u2019s likely.  It\u2019s not a given.  None of the conventional wisdom is a given.  Obama\u2019s reelection is not a given.  They want you to think it is.  You are assisted in that thinking when you look at the Republican field, and you don\u2019t feel inspired.  But you have to understand, this election is going to be about Obama.  And even if the unemployment rate &#8212; I shouldn\u2019t say &#8220;if.&#8221;  When they report the unemployment rate at 7.9%, it\u2019s still gonna be an election about Obama, because that isn\u2019t going to be true.  And when they report 250, 300,000 new jobs, that isn\u2019t gonna be true.  And even if it is, it\u2019s still gonna take close to 600,000 jobs a month for a long time to get us back down to 6%.  Legitimately. <\/p>\n<p>Obama\u2019s not a slam dunk.  The election is not over.  Either Santorum or <a view=\"line\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=16333\">Romney<\/a> can win.  You just have to ignore Republicans that live in New York or Washington and you\u2019ll be okay.  If you talk to Republicans in New York or Washington, you are gonna be as depressed as Republicans were after 1964.  I know a bunch of \u2019em, and they are depressed.  They can\u2019t help it.  They live in the sphere of the New York Times.  That\u2019s everything to them.  Well-meaning Republican conservatives, they think there\u2019s no hope.  If you talk to them, they will convince you there\u2019s no hope.  That\u2019s why ignore talking to them.  I mean I\u2019m about ready to delete e-mails from New York and Washington Republican friends.  They\u2019re just too damned depressing and they\u2019re not realistic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I am here to tell you nobody has got this November election right.
