Again, this is coming up later in the program today. Brand-new poll finds Americans shift dramatically toward the pro-life label. Now, I wonder why this might be? Could it have anything to do with the New York state Senate giving a standing ovation for killing a baby after it\u2019s born? Could it be the governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam, basically doing the same damn thing? Well, we\u2019ll find out when we look at the date range of the poll.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-286741\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-Rush-Stone-Flag-BW-010.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-Rush-Stone-Flag-BW-010.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-Rush-Stone-Flag-BW-010-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a lot of real news trending in this country that is away from the left. You just have to dig to find it. It is buried by the Drive-By Media like much of that kind of news is, but it\u2019s actually very encouraging.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8220;Suburban Women Want the Wall, Buoying Trump After fleeing in 2018.&#8221; This is according to a Zogby Analytics poll. &#8220;Suburban women, after fleeing Republicans in the 2018 midterm congressional elections, are coming back to President Trump. The reason: many want his border wall. A remarkable new Zogby Analytics poll found that suburban women, more than likely voters, support the wall and Trump\u2019s emergency declaration that will allow him to spend more to build it than Congress has OK\u2019d. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;The president\u2019s numbers steadily gained among Independents (39% approve\/55% disapprove) and voters without college degrees (45% approve\/51% disapprove), two groups that helped him win the 2016 presidential election. Another interesting area where President Trump gained ground was with Hispanics (40% approve\/57% disapprove) and African Americans (24% approve\/70% disapprove). Both groups\u2019 job approval rating of Trump increased the most in months,\u2019 said Zogby\u2019s polling analysis.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now, that is flat-out amazing &#8212; and then, ladies and gentlemen, &#8220;incredible new study.&#8221; &#8220;Gallup\u2019s 2018 tracking polls in all 50 U.S. states asked respondents to self-identify as either liberal, conservative or moderate. The aggregated results, which were released [after the program on] Friday, show that more respondents identified as liberal than as conservative in only six states.&#8221; In only six states do more people identify as liberal than conservative.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The states where the number of self-identified liberal residents exceeded the number of conservatives were&#8230;&#8221; There\u2019s one missing here. You\u2019re gonna be shocked. &#8220;Hawaii, New Hampshire, New York, Massachusetts, Vermont and Washington.&#8221; Those six states are the only six states where more people identify as liberal than conservative. The liberal-conservative gap in California &#8212; which I\u2019m sure many of you thought would be the leading state with more liberals. &#8220;Conservatives and liberals both make up 29% of the population.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-300970\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/APP-022519-Show-Logo-FLAG.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/APP-022519-Show-Logo-FLAG.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/APP-022519-Show-Logo-FLAG-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>You might be saying, &#8220;How in the hell can that be when there\u2019s no Republican Party in California. The Republican Party doesn\u2019t win diddly-squat! What do you mean, 29% conservative?&#8221; That\u2019s quite an interesting thing to study. Liberals outnumber conservatives in only six states, and that\u2019s down from the last time they did this survey! It was nine. It\u2019s down. Liberalism is trending down.<\/p>\n<p>You would never know it from watching Drive-By Media. You would never know it from going to the movies. You would never know it reading Twitter, Facebook, anything in pop culture. You would never know it. I have been attempting to tell everybody that liberalism is not the majority thinking in this country, it\u2019s not the majority voting. &#8220;Rush, you\u2019re just wrong about that. They\u2019re overtakin\u2019 us! They\u2019re wipin\u2019 us out.&#8221; No, they\u2019re not. But if you think they are, they may as well be. That\u2019s the whole point. Suburban women coming back to Trump in droves and Gallup: Only six states &#8212; and some of them are very small! New Hampshire, Vermont. Only six states where liberals outnumber conservatives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: You would never know it from watching Drive-By Media.
