RUSH: Here\u2019s a question for you. Where are all the Biden surrogates on the campaign trail? Where, for example, is Bill Clinton? Where, for example, is Hillary Clinton? Hillary Clinton is absent from the trail. Biden is using Obama, but not the Clintons. Where\u2019s Pocahontas? Where is Elizabeth Warren? Where\u2019s Amy Klobuchar? In Minnesota. Where\u2019s AOC?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

All of these people are MIA. They\u2019re missing in action. There\u2019s nobody out there campaigning for Biden other than Obama. Where\u2019s Michelle Obama? Michelle Obama — am I right? — she continuously polls as the most wonderful, the best-dressed woman in the entire world. Why is she not out there for Plugs? Where is this gigantic, big women\u2019s march? Where are all the get-out-the-vote rallies by women for Biden? Where is all of this?<\/p>\n

Biden is showing up with Lady Gaga. Now, do you know what Lady Gaga is known for besides music? She\u2019s anti-fracking. She\u2019s big. She\u2019s political anti-fracking, and he\u2019s dragging her out having her do a concert in Pennsylvania. It doesn\u2019t make any sense. Meanwhile, we just talked to Eric Trump.<\/a> The entire Trump family is out everywhere. And they\u2019re speaking to crowds of 2,500, 1,500, 7,000. They\u2019re working it, folks. They\u2019re working it hard. They\u2019re taking nothing for granted.<\/p>\n

Where is Hunter Biden? Where is Jill Biden? Where are any of these surrogates? They\u2019re not there. I just look at this, and I marvel at how little retail politicking is going on for Biden. And I ask myself, okay, what does it mean? Does it mean that they think they\u2019ve got this in the bag and that they don\u2019t need to send people out? Does it mean that they know those people are negatives? Does it mean they don\u2019t have it in the bag but they know that people who might be voting for Trump do not like Fauxcahontas, do not like Crazy Bernie, do not like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, do not like any of these potential Biden surrogates, so they\u2019re hiding them?<\/p>\n

I\u2019m gonna remind you of something about Barack Obama. Everybody has forgotten this because there is this aura, there is this image that surrounds and envelopes Barack Obama. It is totally wrong. And that image of Barack Obama is that he is universally loved, adored, and popular. He was the first African-American president. And people loved the guy, and people respect him. He\u2019s the smartest guy in the Democrat Party. You know, all of this stuff.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

People have forgotten — let me remind you, because, my friends, I know when I get into this you\u2019re gonna say, “Yeah, I remember you telling us this all the time.” From 2009 after Obama — well, 2008 he was elected. That election. The 2008 election going and starting in 2009 and the next eight years, do you remember me telling you how many total seats the Democrat Party lost all across the country? Governorships, state legislatures, mayors. I mean, going all the way down to local level political office, the Democrat Party — remember James Carville? James Carville saying (imitating Carville), “The Democrat Party had never been, had never been this powerless in my entire life eating gumbo.”<\/p>\n

That was after Trump was elected. That was in 2016 after Trump was elected, James Carville was panicked. The Democrat Party had not seen that degree of loss of power in his lifetime. And it was all chalked up to Barack Obama. He was the change agent. So let\u2019s move forward to today. Here\u2019s Obama opening for Biden wherever they were — I couldn\u2019t believe what I saw yesterday, by the way. So we never see the crowd. We never see a camera focused on who Obama\u2019s looking at. And it\u2019s because it\u2019s about 25 cars and people inside those cars and trucks, and they applaud by honking the horns.<\/p>\n

So Obama introduces — it\u2019s time to introduce Biden, and in fact we\u2019ve got this. I tell you what I\u2019m gonna do. Rather than hunt for it and waste time, I\u2019m gonna take a break, and on the other side of the break we\u2019ll play for you what happened. Biden introduced by Obama but missing his cue, and I\u2019m gonna throw in these numbers on how very poor an endorser Obama is.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay. Here we go. This is Barack Hussein Obama. This was in Flint, Michigan. Biden campaign rally on Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n

OBAMA: The next president of the United States of America, Joe Biden! Joe Biden! Joe Biden! Honk if you\u2019re fired up! Honk if you are ready to go!<\/p>\n

RUSH: Joe Biden!<\/p>\n

OBAMA: Joe Biden!<\/p>\n
