RUSH: I have never in my life, and I really have struggled to remember, I wasn\u2019t old enough in 1964 to be aware of such things.  I knew who Goldwater was.  I even went to a Goldwater whistle-stop.  My dad put us in the car, took us over to Southern Illinois where Goldwater was going through. I knew it was a landslide. I didn\u2019t know why. I didn\u2019t know anything about the conservative movement, knew nothing of any of that. But that aside, I have never in the rest of my life from 1964 forward, I don\u2019t think I have ever seen anything like we are witnessing today where our side has already conceded defeat. <\/p>\n

Our side has given up. Our side has concluded that we are going to lose and in a massive landslide, and they are already making plans for recriminations after the election.  A bunch of people you never heard of are preparing to sort out the blame and responsibility for those who made this all possible.  And I\u2019ll give you three guesses who they are zeroing in on.  That\u2019s right, my friends, your beloved host is to blame for all of this.  Your beloved host is to blame for the other conservative hosts doing what they\u2019re doing. <\/line><\/p>\n

I\u2019m to blame for Trump being a candidate.  I am to blame for it all, and they\u2019re all lining up getting prepared to exonerate themselves, of course.  I\u2019m talking about Republicans; I\u2019m talking about conservatives, people that are quasi-conservatives. Think tank people you\u2019ve never heard of are lining up now, already conceding that it\u2019s over, conceding that it\u2019s a landslide.  They are conceding we\u2019ve lost the House.  They\u2019re conceding they\u2019ve lost the Senate. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s almost like they want that to happen.  I\u2019ve never seen anything like this before.  But we\u2019re in the midst of it, and for all that that is worth and while that\u2019s all going on, there\u2019s a whole lot of people that have not given up, mainly you.  There are a whole lot of people not willing to concede any of this yet because there\u2019s too much that doesn\u2019t make any sense, as we will explore in great detail on the program today.<\/p>\n

The WikiLeaks document dump has produced an email from Podesta with go-to instructions<\/a> on how to create polls that show an overwhelming Democrat majority for the express purpose of dispiriting and depressing Republican opposition. <\/p>\n

Now, just to be clear, I have no idea what\u2019s going on.  I have no idea who\u2019s gonna win.  I don\u2019t have the slightest bit of inside information, and I don\u2019t feel confident giving you a straight up and down opinion on this.  There\u2019s too much we don\u2019t know.  There are too many things that we have learned that make me question all kinds of conventional wisdom.  But I\u2019ll be the first to tell you I haven\u2019t the slightest idea what\u2019s gonna happen. <\/line><\/p>\n

I\u2019m like you, I watch everything that\u2019s going on. Some of it makes sense and some of it doesn\u2019t.  And, like you, I have questions about things that you question.  The fact that so many others do not have any doubt whatsoever, don\u2019t have any questions whatsoever, it\u2019s over, Trump is gonna lose in a landslide like which we have never seen, maybe Goldwater proportions, and we\u2019ve got evidence here that that may not be the case and that evidence is being ignored and discounted by some, and it\u2019s being desperately clinged to by others.  If you look at the behavior of the candidates, it doesn\u2019t make any sense. <\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s out there everywhere he can go drawing massive crowds.  Hillary\u2019s hibernating.  Kaine and Obama and a bunch of others are sitting in for Hillary.  She\u2019s nowhere to be seen.  The others, her surrogates, are out there and even her surrogates are not drawing crowds. There\u2019s not a whole lot of excitement. <\/p>\n

And Obama, when he shows up to do a campaign he can\u2019t stop talking about conservative media.  He can\u2019t stop talking about it.  Here\u2019s a guy who has mastered and succeeded with practically every agenda item that he had to one degree or another, and he\u2019s not even happy.  He\u2019s still bent out of shape that I\u2019m here.  He\u2019s still bent out of shape that there\u2019s a Fox News. He\u2019s still bent out of shape that there\u2019s a conservative media.  <\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
