Why is the GOP so afraid of Rush? Someone forgot to send them the memo ...
Edited on Wed Mar-04-09 06:35 PM by Blue_Roses
he is no longer relevant. November 4th proved that.

He's a narcissistic blow-hard who is in dire need of psychiatric help.:shrug:

Is this really all they have now?

1. He seems to be the spokesperson for the powers that be,
the powers hiding behind the curtain. Someone is feeding him talking points and we know it's not Steele.

3. Because if they disobey, he may decide to eat them.
Beware, Rush hungers.

5. Because he has a brazillion listeners
Ditto heads who tune in each day to find out when to take their next breath.

These milque-toast Repuke politicians are terrified that the Boss might speak ill of them to the minions, in which case their political careers would be over. Or at least they think so.

8. Primary challenges.

The nation thinks he's a pompous idiot... but a large percentage of the far right asylum inmates that enthusiastically engages in the Republican primary process think he's some kind of obnoxious prophet or something.

9. all the rethugs have left are the far right fundies, and rush is their
godhead. if a rethug politician displeases him, he will order his followers to withhold their votes. even if that number shrinks, it is still all they have left.
