RUSH: Here\u2019s Kimberly in Dayton, Ohio, as we go to phones. Kimberly, Merry Christmas! I\u2019m glad you called.<\/line>CALLER: Thank you. Merry Christmas. I just wanted to call — and I don\u2019t want this to sound like a rude call so I apologize if it does. But you really underestimated Hillary. Everything you said made sense when she ran in New York. She shouldn\u2019t have won that. You go up there and you run, you don\u2019t even live there; you buy a house to run. She shouldn\u2019t have won — and everything that you said in the 2006 election about the Cut-and-Run Conservatives? It all made sense, but I kept trying to call and tell you, it\u2019s really happening. I\u2019m here in Ohio, and I can tell you that —<\/line>RUSH: Wait! Wait! I\u2019ve lost you now.<\/line>CALLER: Okay.<\/line>RUSH: Let\u2019s go back to the beginning. Where I was wrong about Hillary was I predicted she wouldn\u2019t run, and she did. After she said she would run, I don\u2019t think I ever predicted she would lose. I never expected her to lose.<\/line>CALLER: She\u2019s been running since she walked into the White House the first time. I think we seriously underestimate her passion for world domination here —<\/line>RUSH: Oh! Okay.<\/line>CALLER: — and how many people she\u2019s going to cut the legs off of to get there, and the thing is, is that I also think that you seriously — (sigh) and I\u2019m sorry, but that it\u2019s the case, you have no idea how sorry I am, but that you seriously — underestimate how many uneducated people there are in this country that don\u2019t listen to your show, and they aren\u2019t educated, and they go out there and they vote. My daughter is going to school with a whole (unintelligible) of them who are going to vote for Hillary Clinton just because she\u2019s a woman and they know nothing about her. We have got to have a serious, intense contrast to just who this woman is. Not just the mediocre moderate, but a serious, intense contrast so that the people in America can see, don\u2019t give up hope. We need a founding father. I know people keep saying there\u2019s not going to be another Ronald Reagan<\/a>, but I really think that there are good people out there who don\u2019t necessarily have to be senators or governors. They\u2019re in office right now. <\/line>RUSH: (sigh)<\/line>CALLER: They know how to do the thing, but they\u2019re overlooked because the Republican Party is pushing their machinery through —<\/line>RUSH: (breathing heavy)<\/line>CALLER: — and that\u2019s what makes everybody upset, because they keep shoving people like Mike DeWine down our throats and they don\u2019t give us the real thing. <\/line>RUSH: (hyperventilating)<\/line>CALLER: I think the only thing that\u2019s going to beat Hillary Clinton is rallying the women, educating them, getting the real thing.<\/line>RUSH: (Breathing hard.)<\/line>CALLER: I\u2019m sorry. (Laughing.)<\/line>RUSH: (Breathing hard.) Oh my gosh. I\u2019m hyperventilating! I\u2019m getting dizzy here trying to keep up with you.<\/line>CALLER: I\u2019m breathing.<\/line>RUSH: Let me see if I understand. You are scared to death of Hillary?<\/line>CALLER: I\u2019m not scared to death.<\/line>RUSH: Yes, you are!<\/line>CALLER: No. No.<\/line>RUSH: You could have said what you just said in three words.<\/line>CALLER: I\u2019m scared to death of the ignorance of the American people. That\u2019s what scares me.<\/line>RUSH: Well, look, that\u2019s something we\u2019re always going to have to deal with, the education system being what it is. You started by saying that you disagree with me that I don\u2019t apparently think there\u2019s a lot of idiots out there. I do. I think there\u2019s plenty of blooming idiots. It\u2019s not so much they\u2019re idiots; it\u2019s they don\u2019t pay attention as closely to things that you and I do. They\u2019re interested in other things, and when they do pay attention, the places they go is where the little brainwashing starts or the propaganda.<\/line>CALLER: Exactly.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: They go to Big Media places or, in the case of young people, they hear about it in school from teachers and professors and this sort of thing. <\/line>CALLER: Yeah, but, Rush, I\u2019m not talking about those people. I\u2019m talking about the people who are paying attention, the conservatives, the real conservatives, the home schoolers. The people who know what\u2019s going on, they\u2019ve lost hope, and I think that they\u2019ve lost —<\/line>RUSH: Well, then vote for Barack Obama.<\/line>CALLER: Oh, please! That\u2019s not the answer!<\/line>RUSH: Oh, but he\u2019s the man of hope.<\/line>CALLER: No, he\u2019s not!<\/line>RUSH: We\u2019ve had a man from Hope; now we\u2019ve got the man of <\/emphasize>hope.<\/line>CALLER: He\u2019s the schmuck of the party!<\/line>RUSH: You need to calm down out there!<\/line>CALLER: I\u2019m trying to tell you: I am the norm, and —<\/line>RUSH: I understand.<\/line>CALLER: — and they keep saying, “As Ohio goes, America goes.”<\/line>RUSH: You\u2019re fine but everybody else is screwed up. You\u2019re fine, but everybody else is worried.<\/line>CALLER: (giggling) So can we unscrew them up? That\u2019s my problem!<\/line>RUSH: You\u2019re fine, but everybody else is depressed. You\u2019re fine, but everybody else wants to commit suicide. You\u2019re fine, but everybody else is going to throw up their hands and say, “I quit! I\u2019m moving to Switzerland so I can renounce my US taxpayer status.”<\/line>CALLER: You know what? How do we stop that? How do we keep that from happening? How do we give them hope?<\/line>RUSH: Well, gee, I don\u2019t know! I\u2019m a radio guy. I\u2019m not trying to get votes and the people in this audience have hope. The people in this audience enjoy their lives. I don\u2019t run around in fits of depression all day long. Well, Isometimes I get down in the dumps but I know how to get out of it now, whereas I used to not know how to do that. I don\u2019t live there when that happens to me, and I\u2019ll tell you what, Kimberly: I\u2019ll be damned if I\u2019m going to let whoever becomes president ruin my life. <\/line>CALLER: But they have the ability to do that in many physical ways. You\u2019re right, mind-set is mind-set and you can overcome it, but they have the ability to put us in a place — I mean, six years is way too long to send a message, and we sent a lot of messages for six years into Washington, and that\u2019s going to have a very, very big impact on all of our lives, and people did that on purpose. I saw them walk into the polls with their eyes closed. “No, I don\u2019t want your voter information,” even if it was nonpartisan. They went with a mission. They went to send a message, and now we have to live with this message. How do we keep that from happening in 2008? I guess that\u2019s my question.<\/line>RUSH: Well, who went where for six years and did what? I lost you there.<\/line>CALLER: Sherrod Brown is now the senator —<\/line>RUSH: Oh.<\/line>CALLER: — representing Ohio for six years!<\/line>RUSH: Fine.<\/line>CALLER: And he\u2019s not the only one! All across the country, we set some really good people in place in various places around the country, and they got locked out for a message.<\/line>RUSH: Look, let me tell you something: We are replaying the aftermath of the election here. I think I finally understand what you\u2019re talking about. We sent people to Washington for six years or whatever, and they didn\u2019t do what they were going to do. They didn\u2019t fulfill their promises and so forth, and what happened to them happened. They lose in that circumstance. That\u2019s how the process works. If they want to get their power back they\u2019re going to have to come out and figure out what it is that their supporters and voters want and then campaign on it, and then try their best to deliver it after they get elected. These things are repeating cycles. What\u2019s frustrating is that the losers never seem to learn from it! They expect that these winning and losing cycles are going to continue and that when they lose, it\u2019s not that big a deal, as these things happen in politics. At any rate, I appreciate the call, Kimberly. Thanks. Try to calm down. It\u2019s never as bad as you think it is.<\/line>After all, you were just named TIME Magazine\u2019s Person of the Year<\/a>!<\/line><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
