RUSH: Here is Jerry in Wilmington, Delaware. Jerry, great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n

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

RUSH: You bet, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Listen, let me tell you first why I love your show. I mean your political satire is genius. I mean Driving Miss Daisy, I mean it\u2019s just brilliant. <\/p>\n

RUSH: (laughing)<\/p>\n

CALLER: I mean I just drive around listening to you sometimes and I laugh, you know, but sometimes I listen to, like Driving Miss Daisy, I say, that\u2019s absolutely brilliant.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you very much. Driving Miss Nancy, yes.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, listen. My wife and I were watching Mitt Romney on TV the other night, and she\u2019s a big lib. I mean a really big lib. In fact, she holds group meetings like six, eight, ten women, they\u2019re all liberals, and they sit around and complain about men and talk politics. And after watching Mitt Romney that night she said, ‘You know, I might consider voting for him.\u2019 And I was floored. I don\u2019t think women are enamored with him as much anymore, and if I can tell you my ex-senator — and I think I know the reason why he lost the women vote a couple months ago, and if I can use a quote from my ex-senator, Joe Biden, I\u2019d love to explain that, please, if you don\u2019t mind. Basically Joe Biden, remember when he said Obama looks good, he sounds good, you know, he\u2019s clean, he smells good, you know, and he promised women the moon if they gave him your vote. So I think what happened was once they gave him a piece of their vote, you know, then things changed, he didn\u2019t call \u2019em anymore. And I think that\u2019s probably why they\u2019re not enamored with him as much anymore and why he\u2019s vulnerable, and Republicans shouldn\u2019t be afraid to vote against him. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Look, I agree there ought not be any fear of Obama. So your wife gaggles the hens and they get together, six to eight of them and they\u2019re turning away from Obama, going to Mitt?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, she mentioned it, you know, she mentioned it not at that particular meeting, but at the end of watching him on TV and I was almost floored, you know, like —<\/p>\n

RUSH: What do they like about Mitt?<\/p>\n

CALLER: She liked, as she said, you know, promises, I don\u2019t —<\/p>\n

RUSH: You want to know what the answer is? I\u2019ll give you the answer.<\/p>\n

CALLER: She wants efficiency, basically.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No. There\u2019s a 14-inch part in his hair. <\/p>\n

CALLER: What?<\/p>\n

RUSH: He\u2019s got TV anchor hair.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hmmm.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You cannot be an anchor on television unless you have a 14-inch part in that hair.<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, I don\u2019t think that was the main reason, but are you saying that you are not a big Romney fan, or you don\u2019t think he can win, or —<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, no, no, no, no. I\u2019m not talking about my impersonation of Romney at all.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hm-hm. But, anyway, no, I think she basically, like a lot of people, you know —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Obviously your wife thinks Romney will call her the next day whereas Obama hasn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right. Or at least will be effective and efficient —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. <\/p>\n

CALLER: In fact, instead of hope and change, he should have a poster, ‘Boring but efficient.\u2019 I don\u2019t know. That\u2019s what he should promote.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Are you allowed to attend these gatherings when your wife and the other gals get together?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Most of the time I go to the movies or go bowling, but to be quite honest one night I was home and I went in the kitchen and got a drink of water, and they know I listen to you and Hannity, and they attacked me one night. ‘Oh, how can you be a Republican?\u2019 And, ‘How can you listen to those guys?\u2019 <\/p>\n

RUSH: So they\u2019re in the kitchen?<\/p>\n

CALLER: No, they\u2019re in the living room, and I went in the kitchen to get a drink of water one night, and they just went after me, you know, \u2019cause they knew I was Republican and —<\/p>\n

RUSH: And one of them is your wife?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right. Right. It\u2019s a little tough, especially around Valentine\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It\u2019s a little hard to buy a Valentine\u2019s card for her to be quite honest.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I can totally imagine. Totally imagine.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I know. I was gonna assume your wife, does she follow your beliefs, too?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, you know, that is why we have ProFlowers.<\/a><\/p>\n

CALLER: (laughing) <\/p>\n

RUSH: You ever thought of it?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, but like I said…<\/p>\n

RUSH: You\u2019re gonna need it, pal, after today.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, she doesn\u2019t listen.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You\u2019re calling from Wilmington, Delaware, she\u2019s gonna hear about it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: You think?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, there\u2019s no question. The tentacles of this program reach deep. I mean, your wife\u2019s gonna hear about this.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, like I said, every Valentine\u2019s Day, I bought her candy but, you know, flowers. She\u2019s been laughing at me since Obama got elected which, you know, I didn\u2019t laugh at her for eight years when Bush was elected.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, really? You know what? Ask her, does she feel like laughing at all people that lost their jobs and are losing their homes and can\u2019t pay gasoline prices approaching four bucks? Ask her how much fun is all this? I mean if you really, really want to get down and dirty, she\u2019s having all kinds of fun laughing at the fact Obama wins. Ask her if she digs all this, how much laughter is she getting over the circumstances in the country these days?<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s a good point. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Ask her how she feels about Gitmo staying open. For all her talk about me, tell her Limbaugh was right about that, he said Gitmo was never gonna close.<\/p>\n

CALLER: That\u2019s a good point.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n

CALLER: But listen, I\u2019ve always wanted to get on and hadn\u2019t had a chance. Can I just mention a quick Joe Biden point if you don\u2019t mind?<\/p>\n

RUSH: A Joe Biden point?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah. Anyway, you know, the —<\/p>\n

RUSH: I thought you did, but have at it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: All right. Well, here\u2019s a different one. The media is saying he\u2019s average Joe from Wilmington. The media never told you he didn\u2019t even live in Wilmington. He lives in Greenville. It\u2019s the Aspen of Delaware, all the movers and shakers, and he\u2019s got a $3 million estate. You want to know who one of his neighbors is?<\/p>\n

RUSH: John Edwards.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Average Joe DuPont. For years I\u2019ve been trying to scream that out. <\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, average Joe DuPont. Right, right, right, right, right. Well, interesting.<\/p>\n

CALLER: It\u2019s hard living with a liberal woman when you\u2019re conservative.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, I know. I know. Ask your wife if women have to pay higher taxes if they have children and so forth. She\u2019s prepared to laugh at the future her own kids have. (laughing) Snerdley says if you ask her every question that I have given you, Valentine\u2019s Day or not, you are effectively frozen out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
