He analyzes it, by the way, which is why I pay attention to it.&nbsp; It\u2019s the Rand poll.&nbsp; Turns out it\u2019s the Rand poll from 2012, which called it, by the way.&nbsp; The Rand poll was right on the money.&nbsp; Obama winning by 3.8 over Romney.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.investors.com\/politics\/commentary\/are-global-warming-alarmists-disappointed-hurricane-matthew-wasnt-worse\/\"><strong>Global Warming Alarmists Disappointed by Hurricane Matthew<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: We actually got environmentalist wackos now openly admitting they\u2019re sad that Hurricane Matthew was not more destructive \u2019cause it didn\u2019t help \u2019em advance the agenda of climate change and global warming and all of that. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/melania-trump-threatens-to-sue-people-magazine\/\"><strong>Melania Trump Threatens to Sue People Magazine<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Melania Trump has now written a letter to People magazine and said (summarized), &#8220;The lady who wrote that story about us and our one-year anniversary? I never met her on the street in Manhattan! She never squeezed my baby\u2019s foot. We\u2019re not friends. We were never friendly! I don\u2019t even know this woman, and she\u2019s writing all this stuff about having seen me?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve got media people that are star-struck celebrity&#8230; Can\u2019t say the word. They\u2019re celebrity screwers, and they\u2019re now taking advantage. &nbsp;Why do you go into entertainment media anyway if you\u2019re not a groupie? They get into this entertainment media business, they get to be groupies, and they get close access. They get to pretend they\u2019re friends with all these stars and stuff when they\u2019re not! &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/Politics\/Michael-Obama-Donald-Trump-attack-warning\/2016\/10\/13\/id\/753294\/\">White House Warns Trump: Hands Off Moochelle<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:&nbsp; Hey, get this:&nbsp; &#8220;The White House sent a warning to Donald Trump Thursday: Attacking Michelle Obama is off limits.&#8221;&nbsp; Now, as you know, the first lady went out and attacked Trump yesterday.&nbsp; I don\u2019t&#8230; I\u2019m not sure she even&#8230; I don\u2019t think she mentioned him by name.&nbsp; Obama doesn\u2019t either.&nbsp; They don\u2019t mention him by name.&nbsp; That\u2019s old school.&nbsp; They can tell themselves they\u2019re talking about the guy but not really. So they\u2019re not really promoting him \u2019cause they don\u2019t mention his name.<\/p>\n<p>And they\u2019re relying on the fact that the people in their audience are so stupid that unless they mention the name, people aren\u2019t gonna know who they\u2019re talking about.&nbsp; So they just substitute &#8220;Republicans&#8221; any time they\u2019re talking about Trump, and they kill two birds with one stone.&nbsp; &#8220;The White House followed up&#8230;&#8221; After Michelle Obama went out there and trashed Trump yesterday, &#8220;The White House followed up with its own message for [Trump].&nbsp; &#8216;I can\u2019t think of a bolder way for Donald Trump to lose even more standing than he already has than by engaging the first lady of the United States,\u2019 principal deputy White House press secretary Eric Schultz said on Air Force One&#8230;&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now, I\u2019m gonna tell you what they\u2019re doing.&nbsp; They are dangling giant bait.&nbsp; They want Trump&#8230; They\u2019re trying to bait Trump into responding to her yesterday, because, in their world, it\u2019s no contest.&nbsp; They think they\u2019ve succeeded in turning Trump into a dirty-old-man pervert, versus the angelic, St. Teresa-like Michelle Obama. They think in that contest that Trump can\u2019t help but further embarrass himself.&nbsp; Now, there\u2019s no warning from the White House to me to not engage &#8212; and, of course, I did yesterday, and I\u2019ll repeat it, \u2019cause I think it\u2019s giant hypocrisy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Michelle Obama essentially said that she doesn\u2019t know men who talk about women the way Donald Trump does, and she finds it reprehensible, offensive, just terrible, just absolutely horrible. She just doesn\u2019t know men like this! We can\u2019t we can\u2019t elect somebody like this who says he\u2019s kinds of things about women and does these kinds of things to women.&nbsp; And I couldn\u2019t help but think, was she in church when her pastor was talking about how Bill Clinton was &#8220;riding dirty&#8221; with Monica Lewinsky?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And they sing the praises, the Obamas, of Bill and Hillary.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If I\u2019m not mistaken, she\u2019s had several rappers come perform concerts at the White House with questionable lyrics about &#8220;bitches&#8221; and &#8220;hos&#8221; and cops and stuff.&nbsp; Well, I\u2019m just saying. Maybe the excuse is, &#8220;Well, that\u2019s the expression of great art.&nbsp; Rappers are the street crooners of the day, the future winners of the Nobel Prize for Literature like Bob Dylan.&#8221;&nbsp; But I just&#8230; Folks, come on. Michelle Obama claims she\u2019s never heard men talk about women the way Trump talks about women?&nbsp; That\u2019s the kind of&#8230; That\u2019s not believable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Nobody believes that. Yet she gets away with it, and so now the White House and baiting Trump by telling him she is off-limits.&nbsp; See, when you tell an alpha male (chuckling) anybody\u2019s off-limits?&nbsp; So I hope Trump doesn\u2019t take the bait.&nbsp; I hope he just leaves it alone, and if they want anybody to react, let some surrogates do it, but I would just leave it alone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LA Times Poll Under Attack RUSH: The Los Angeles Times poll has the rest of the polling industry in a tizzy.&nbsp; And, in fact, you know what I found out?&nbsp; That a lot of pollsters are mad at the LA Times poll.&nbsp; They\u2019re literally mad at it.
