If you listened to him for any length of time you would know Trump is his man. He has been waiting for someone to stand up to the media for a long time. I knew he would not pass up the chance to support Trump.

Are you kidding me? His show is now practically one big Donald Trump ad.
My bad. I used to listen to him regularly but got tired of the same old rehashed nonsense. The guy is an entertainer, just like so many other talking heads out there, and the reality is they have zero impact on anyone's POV because the vast majority that waste time listening or watching any of them are already Big Fans and only listen to hear their own POV reaffirmed because they believe falsely that it make it valid.
It's an entertaining read. Somehow, on the eve of the 2012 election he concluded that everything but the polls points to a Romney landslide. Then he determined that the polls - which, aggregated, showed a narrow Obama popular vote win but a more certain Electoral College win - were biased in favor of the President.
In the real world, of course, the polls were biased in favor of Romney - Obama's final margin of victory was about 3% higher than what the aggregated polls suggested. And - also in the real world - most of the indicators pointed to an Obama victory (not a Romney landslide), which is why the non-partisan modelers and the betting markets predicted an Obama win. More than a few of them, such as 538 and the Princeton consortium, even nailed the 332-206 Electoral College margin exactly.
In a way, it'll be sad when Limbaugh is gone. The way his perpetually wrong spoutings set up the usual suspects to smacked upside the head by reality on a regular basis is highly entertaining!
[He's right about Carson, of course. Like I said, broken clocks are sometimes not wrong.]
well, you might say Jon Stewart is more a news polemicist and Rush Limbaugh a comedian, they are both *talk show hosts* who artfully skip from one role to the other. They are both very good at what they do, as evidenced by their massive audiences.
I listen to Rush occasionally for entertainment purpose only. I even called in once and he has been nice. lol
I don't think his opinion really matters in term of changing minds because his audiences (most of them) agree with him anyway.
Do I think Carson is the one? No, I don't. So I agree with Rush on this one. Do I think Rush's opinion really matters? no.
I always say, it's not a person's words, is their actions that speak about them.
