RUSH: CBS\/New York Times poll reports that “a plurality of Americans approve of Paul Ryan\u2019s Medicaid reform.” Now, folks, let\u2019s go back to yesterday because there\u2019s another side to this. Yesterday I made it plain that I don\u2019t buy one syllable of this notion that Obama\u2019s a shoo-in for reelection. One of the reasons why is I live in Realville. I don\u2019t need these polls to tell me. When 46% say they\u2019d never vote for Obama, 70% disapprove, 70% think the future of the country is on the wrong track, nobody needs to get very detailed with me. I understand. I look at the November election results. I know that the vast majority of people who vote and who make this country work have no desire for another four years of this guy. But there are a lot of people alive in this country who have nothing to do with making it work, and they vote, too. And, sadly, the people who make the country work are a dwindling number. Even so, if the election were today Obama would lose in a landslide — don\u2019t doubt me — to the point it wouldn\u2019t matter who the Republican nominee is. <\/p>\n

The anti-Obama sentiment in this country is profound. You just don\u2019t trust me saying it because you don\u2019t see it reported anywhere, and you don\u2019t see in the media any evidence of it. Well, of course not. They\u2019re gonna do everything they can to cover that up and hide it and act like it doesn\u2019t exist. That\u2019s why a rising oil price is a godsend for the Democrats and the media. It\u2019s an automatic opportunity to start blaming Republicans for all this \u2019cause it fits the template, the decades-old narrative of Republicans being in bed with big business. The simple fact of the matter is the Democrat Party is destroying this country and it\u2019s destroying the future for your kids and grandkids. And the people who make this country work know it. You give them a chance, another referendum of Obama, if it\u2019s November in 2012 or tomorrow, he\u2019s gone. Circumstances exist as they are, and if Bernanke does QE3, if there is more spending to keep the stock market propped up \u2019cause that\u2019s what that\u2019s all about, keep the stock market propped up, that\u2019s what QE2 is about, that\u2019s just gonna lead to higher prices, more inflation. <\/p>\n

Food, gasoline, those two commodities, they can\u2019t lie to you and tell you you\u2019re wrong. Gasoline costs five bucks a gallon. They can\u2019t tell you you\u2019re wrong, it\u2019s only three. They can\u2019t lie to you about what your food and gasoline costs. They can lie to you about the unemployment number. They can lie to you about the economic growth number. But they can\u2019t lie to you about the cost of living because you\u2019re alive and you live it. So if they have to do some more spending here in their convoluted theory to save Obama, hello. Is there anything on the books, anything on the table right now policy-wise that is going to cause a miracle turnaround in our economy? They are hiding and delaying the final nail in the coffin of this country \u2019til after 2012, and that\u2019s Obamacare. And that is the final nail in the coffin in the country as we\u2019ve known it. Once that implements in full, then all kinds of our freedoms are then at great peril, economic and others. <\/p>\n

So does it matter? I\u2019m telling you right now, just like it didn\u2019t matter that there wasn\u2019t any Republican to vote for in the November elections, whoever voted in November, Tea Party, they were voting anti-status quo. They were voting anti-destruction of America. They were voting anti-debt, anti-spending. They were voting against everything that is Obama and the American left and they voted in landslide droves. And nothing has changed. So the presidential race comes up, everybody thinks, “Well, we\u2019re gonna need somebody for our people to vote for.” Traditionally, yeah, and you\u2019d love to have that because that\u2019s what gives you a mandate after they win. Somebody with an agenda says, “Here I am. This is what I believe. This is what we\u2019re gonna do after I get elected.” Yeah, you\u2019d love to have that but I\u2019m telling you, Elmer Fudd could win this next election. That will be the media tweak quote of the day, and the press will go talk to whoever created Elmer Fudd — Warner Brothers? — try to find out what Elmer Fudd thinks of that. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s a bit of an exaggeration. I\u2019m not telling you the nominee is inconsequential. What I am trying to do is keep you aware of just how strong the anti-American left, anti-Obama sentiment is among the people who work in this country and who make it work. And there\u2019s nothing that\u2019s changed to lessen that intensity since November. Hell, the Tea Party is digging in even deeper. I got stories in the stack, Tea Party people running for school boards. Tea Party getting involved in local, state, and city politics all over the country. Tea Party\u2019s growing. They don\u2019t have a single leader. There\u2019s not somebody out there that\u2019s the face of the Tea Party, and yet they\u2019re growing \u2019cause it\u2019s a series of core belief ideas found in the Constitution. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: We need to have a little discussion on the role of consultants in business and political consultants as well. But before telling you that, I need to tell you how consultants work in broadcasting. (interruption) Now, Snerdley\u2019s eyes just lit up. ‘Cause all of us in broadcasting, when you say “consultants,” it means two things, maybe three. We all know it. So, Snerdley, I want you to take what you know about consultants in broadcasting, radio and TV, and then imagine: What do they mean in politics? Same thing, and it equals a problem. Consultants exist to make sure you are not who you are. <\/p>\n

Consultants exist to turn you into what they say you should be based on research and polling and all sorts of things, and that is how they get paid (and credit). They turn the candidate into a winner. The candidate is not capable of doing anything until the consultant comes along, with his research, and tells him, “Here\u2019s who you are. Here\u2019s what you gotta go, where you gotta go, what you gotta say, how you gotta say it, who you hang out with, where do you go on vacation. We\u2019ve polled it,” and I\u2019d venture to say that nine out of ten of \u2019em on our side are constantly urging, “Moderate, No Labels, tone it down, no personal criticism of your opponent,” that kind of stuff. <\/p>\n
