re: #110 albusteve

I think you give pundits too much credit…the people empower him, not the other way around

people empower him, and he holds the power. And then he uses that power to further radicalize and influence the GOP. Rush is about Rush. Rush is looking out for himself. If everyone stopped listening, Rush would disappear, but here’s the thing, only the GOP seems to have this problem, where they are totally beholden to a very very few select group of tastemakers and opinion heads on radio and TV. More easily led. It’s why it’s better to have the circular firing squad of the DNC, makes Democrats less crazy because Democrats have something resembling an immune system. Lots of bickering, nobody gets along. Which I prefer.
