Rich, you\u2019re on Open Line Friday, the Rush Limbaugh program. Hello, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hello, Rush. I contend that the Huckabee victory yesterday was not about populism, but it was about identity politics, alone, and I think the one stat that stands out for me is in the entrance polls, the stat that says the candidate\u2019s religious beliefs matter, for those that marked &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Huckabee_Targets_South_Carolina.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"200\" height=\"305\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I saw that, but I tell you, I have been inundated today with e-mail from people who claim to be either Huckabee voters in Iowa or Huckabee supporters, and they are citing much more than that. I should have mentioned this. They\u2019re citing much more than just the identity politics that Governor Huckabee practiced. Look, I\u2019m talking about stuff this morning before you started talking about it. I\u2019m getting loads of e-mail from, &#8216;I\u2019m really hurtin\u2019, Rush. It is bad out here. I heard you on Fox say it\u2019s not that bad, and you just don\u2019t know. We are really hurting out here. Governor Huckabee understands,\u2019 and they weren\u2019t talking &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I have faith in conservatives that as this election runs forward, the primaries roll forward&#8230; He came in sixth out of those that say religious beliefs matter not at all. I don\u2019t think&#8230; I think that is a small minority and that conservatives are still strong and believe in small government, and we have those conservative beliefs that are out there. He just was able to capture this evangelical group &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, that\u2019s good.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; out there.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: That\u2019s good because by the time I\u2019m through with this and we get to November, you\u2019re going to be absolutely right.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I hope so.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I hope so, Rush. Love what you do, thanks for everything.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Sit tight, you know? Hang loose, sleep loose, whatever it takes. Don\u2019t sweat it. Governor Huckabee has, they\u2019re saying, a lot of momentum coming out of Iowa, right? He\u2019s going to lose New Hampshire. McCain\u2019s going to win New Hampshire. McCain or Romney going to win New Hampshire. It\u2019s one of those two. So you can say the momentum is what it is. Governor Huckabee\u2019s next target is South Carolina.
