There\u2019s fear and anticipation on both sides. I find that fascinating on a number of levels, and alternately I find it comforting and assuring and I\u2019m sure if you want to find negatives, you can. I\u2019m not predisposed to that. But many people are. It\u2019s a natural state, I think, of the human condition is pessimism, and you have to fight it, and this is certainly one of those times where you have to. <\/p>\n
So I want to start here by going through some of the latest polling data. Some of it\u2019s very interesting and we\u2019ll go on from there, we\u2019ll take your phone calls, of course. We\u2019ve got Governor Pence slated to be here at about 12:35, in 25 or 30 minutes or so from now, depending on his schedule and everything. <\/p>\n
I have to share this with you. I got an email from a friend this morning, and the subject line of the email was: I predict that you will regret tomorrow. I predict you will regret tomorrow not sticking your neck out this time, at least I hope so. <\/p>\n
So I said, “What does this mean? What would I possibly regret?” So I wrote back. “Are you regretting that I have not campaigned with Trump, not endorsed Trump, not been more vocally for Trump from the get-go, I did not stick my neck out, what are you thinking?” He thinks it\u2019s going to be such a Trump landslide that I\u2019m gonna regret not predicting it. (interruption) No, no, no, no, no. It\u2019s not about — that\u2019s what I thought too. I thought I was chiding me. <\/p>\n
Here\u2019s the thing. I have been hit from every side there is. The Never Trumpers have hit me for betraying conservatism. The blogs hit me for betraying conservative. I am Mr. Conservative, they said. I\u2019m the guy that got all this started, and when it was nip and tuck time, when it was crunch time, when it was pedal-to-the-metal time, did I choose conservatism in the primaries? No. Therefore on one level I have betrayed conservatism and I don\u2019t deserve to ever be listened to ever again. <\/p>\n
But one thing I know, folks, audience levels have just skyrocketed during this period, even more so than usual during elections. It\u2019s something that is bankable, I mean, it\u2019s seasonal, predictable, but it\u2019s through the roof even more so this time around. But I did what I\u2019ve always done, I didn\u2019t change. That\u2019s the thing, folks, I mean, you can call it boring if you want, but the one thing you never have to doubt is who I am and what I believe and what I tell you I believe. I have been Mr. Consistent for the entire 28-plus years I have been hosting this program. <\/p>\n There hasn\u2019t been a single, solitary, fundamental, foundational, principled change in anything I state or say that I believe, not one, while everything around me seems to be changing with the wind, changing with popular opinion. It seems like a lot of people you used to be able to count on, now you don\u2019t know what they believe, but I have been there. <\/p>\n This one emailer thinks that we\u2019re just gonna see a landslide today or tonight and that I\u2019m gonna regret not having predicted it. That was his point. Not that I haven\u2019t supported Trump. He\u2019s had no problem with what I have done or how I\u2019ve done it here. Just one more explanation on that. <\/p>\n Folks, I have total trust in you. I have never looked at those of you in this audience as needing to be led. Sure, everybody needs to be informed, and I take great pleasure in informing you on things, and I love telling you what I think. I\u2019m very proud of what I think. I love hearing myself say what I think, and I\u2019m very, very sure of myself when I say it. If I\u2019m not sure of myself, I won\u2019t say it.<\/p>\n I think that certainty rubs a lot of people the wrong way. Nobody\u2019s supposed to be that sure of themselves. There\u2019s too much gray area, you can\u2019t possibly be that sure. It unnerves some people, moderates and independents. The thing I\u2019ve always trusted is you. For example, I\u2019ve had so many people say, “You gotta tell people to go vote.” I don\u2019t need to tell you people to go vote. How many of you people out there don\u2019t know it\u2019s Election Day and how many of you out there are waiting for anybody, me, anybody, to tell you to go vote? None of you. <\/p>\n For example, I do not understand — and nobody\u2019s gonna ever be able to make me understand — how a Republican could vote for Hillary Clinton. I just am never going to understand that. Nobody can make me understand it, and nobody can make me accept it, particularly Republicans that have been around and paying attention for the last 25 or 30 years. There is no way, and a lot of them are. I don\u2019t know “a lot.” A significant number of publicly known Republicans are going to either not vote or they are going to vote for Hillary. <\/p>\n They\u2019re going to do something that is essentially a vote for her — and that, I don\u2019t understand. I can understand some people that might have problems with Trump, but I do not understand at all any admitted Republican or conservative who will vote for Hillary Clinton. That just doesn\u2019t compute and make any sense, and I will explain why as the program unfolds before your very eyes and ears. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" RUSH: You see where Hillary said that she was humbled to vote for herself? She probably regrets she couldn\u2019t vote more than once. Humbled? That\u2019s what\u2019s missing in the entire ruling class of Washington, DC. There isn\u2019t any humility there. There is the expectation of total subservience by the people.
