RUSH: I got some e-mails here at the top of the hour, it\u2019s been happening during the breaks during the whole program, ‘Rush, why are you so certain that Mrs. Clinton would never choose Obama, even if she does hate him, as you said, as her vice presidential nominee?\u2019 Okay. Let me explain it this way. The thinking on the part of people who think that would be a great ticket is that, ‘Wow, look at this, first black vice presidential, first woman, why, they got it all covered out there. Wow!\u2019 All of this is rooted in the notion that every time you get down to a presidential race, everybody gets focused on the female vote, everybody always does. If you look at the election returns from most of the presidential races, you\u2019ll find that it really is whoever gets the majority of the male vote that wins the presidency. There are some exceptions to it, but it\u2019s generally a fairly good rule to follow, it\u2019s just not talked about much because it doesn\u2019t fit the Drive-By template of things. <\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s speak hypothetically for just a second. Let\u2019s say that Senator McCain is the nominee of the Republican Party, and I don\u2019t care who his vice presidential nominee is, let\u2019s say he picks Perot, I don\u2019t know, put anybody up there, his vice presidential nod. So you have McCain and whoever against Hillary and Obama. The reason this will never happen is because, what do men do then? Particularly the Reagan Democrat white men, what do they do then? Hillary and Obama, or McCain and whoever? Remember, the Clinton southern strategy is to lose South Carolina to a huge black turnout for Obama and then run around to the rest of the states and whisper, ‘Of course he won, look at all the blacks there,\u2019 which is supposed to galvanize the whites in the rest of these states. I\u2019m telling you there\u2019s a race war going on and the Clintons are practicing this racial division in their own party like they are experts at it, and they have been ever since they were in Arkansas. <\/p>\n

You will not believe me on this, but I have had some black conservative friends of mine who are conservative before they are black in their minds tell me that if Obama gets the nomination, regardless who his veep is, if Obama gets the nomination and McCain gets the Republican nomination, these black conservatives who are conservative first are telling me they\u2019re going to vote Obama. When they told me that, I said, ‘I do not believe you!\u2019 You know what they said? ‘Well, believe it, brother, because either way the country\u2019s going to get destroyed, and I\u2019d just as soon a black liberal be credited with it.\u2019 And I said, ‘Whoa, back off! Wow.\u2019 By the same token, if you have Hillary at the top of the ticket and McCain on the Republican side, and you had Obama as the veep, I\u2019m telling you that\u2019s why it\u2019s never going to happen, because despite all this talk in the Democrat Party about wanting the women vote and so forth, their strategery in South Carolina indicates that they know that they\u2019re going to need a large white vote and they\u2019re also going to need the black vote come November after they\u2019ve done their best to make \u2019em mad and divide them during the primaries as they\u2019re in the process here of destroying Obama. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: This is South Bend, Indiana. Chuck, welcome, sir, to the EIB Network.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi, Rush. Thanks for taking my call.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yes.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, I can\u2019t get enough of this show. I\u2019ve got two goals in life: Make everyone agree with you, and I convert at least one liberal per week —<\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s admirable, sir, thank you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: And I want to be your permanent replacement host as I\u2019ve mentioned to you once before. I\u2019m calling regarding the predictions for Hillary veep.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. Got about 45 seconds.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Okay. I\u2019m thinking Evan Bayh.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Why do you think Evan Bayh? Because I said so earlier?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Oh, I didn\u2019t hear you say so.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, yeah, I think she\u2019s going to pick a moderate zip — maybe I didn\u2019t say it on the air. Not today, maybe I said it earlier.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I think I\u2019ve heard you say it before —<\/p>\n

RUSH: I think she\u2019s going to pick a moderate white guy, could be portrayed as a conservative and has a zipper on his lip.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. I see him lurking behind her giving speeches, he\u2019s just kind of smiling quietly behind her, but he seems to be behind her often.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, I think you\u2019re right. Make no mistake, they\u2019re not going to have the first female candidate for president backed up by a vice president that is not a guy, white guy. Learn it, love it, live it. I\u2019m not the one injecting race into this campaign, into this party. That\u2019s the Clintons, folks. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
