Well, because I could say it myself rather than going to the bite, but we\u2019ll go to the audio. This is November 5th last year. This is what I said about President-select Obama.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH ARCHIVE: Obama\u2019s campaign will never end. His governance as president will be as a constant campaign. Clinton never stopped campaigning. The war room mode never shut down, and I think it\u2019s going to be the same thing with Obama.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, it is. This speech today was a campaign speech. It was platitudinous, it was perfect Obama. Say nothing, but say it in a great way that inspires people, make them think they heard all kinds of great things. It sounded like a State of the Union speech, actually. &#8216;We\u2019re going to have to do this, we\u2019re going to have to do that, and we gotta make sure we do this, and we don\u2019t have much time to do all this, we gotta do it now, but we\u2019re going to do great things, we\u2019re going to have new chairs in the classrooms, new desks in the classrooms, we\u2019re going to have better teachers, going to have more teacher pay, we\u2019re going to have safer roads and safer bridges, going to have to an outpost on Mars, and then we\u2019re gonna have an outpost on the moon, and then we\u2019re going to have clean drinking water for everybody including my brother in the hut over in Kenya.\u2019 It never stopped. It was a laundry list that just kept going and I could just see people out in the audience, the typical Obama voter, swooning. I could see Oprah Winfrey jiggling so much in happiness that she loses 20 of the 40 pounds she gained last year. Okay, so constant campaign mode. Gloria Borger last night on CNN had this to say.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125107.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"193\" height=\"195\" class=\"alignright\"\/>BORGER: I was talking to some folks in the transition who are very involved in this speech and it was described to me as akin to a campaign announcement. They said, &#8216;Think of it as the beginning of a sustained campaign.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, I rest my case. Should there be any of you out there who doubt me, don\u2019t anymore. Don\u2019t doubt me. I know these people like every square inch of my glorious naked body. The difference is I don\u2019t think it\u2019s wise to run a presidency as a campaign, but Gloria Borger thinks it\u2019s marvelous, thinks it\u2019s absolutely cool as it can be. By the way, this was a brilliant move in one way, brilliant, brilliant, because nobody is talking about Plaxico Burress, nobody is talking about Lloyd Burruss, and nobody is talking about Roland Burris, except Bobby Rush, and we have the sound bites. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Sometimes I cringe at playing sound bites of myself.
