They're probably saying behind closed doors, "Where are you gonna lead us now, Senator Reid? What cliff are you going to drive us over next?" If the original letter wasn't bad enough (and it was), Harry Reid's last-hour attempt to take credit for the donations was. Let's do the math. The auction was announced on...

RUSH: Now, folks, I want to say just a little bit more about the "unfairness," the "inaccuracy," whatever you want to call it from the Drive-By Media of the Harry Reid smear letter auction with my matching donation now generating $4.2 million for the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation. In anybody's judgment, that's huge news, especially since it involved a skirmish between me and the Senate majority leader. The amount of coverage that this has received, especially accurate coverage, is such...

I was in Miami yesterday. I was a guest to Wayne Huizenga for the Patriots and Dolphins in his box down there. There were a bunch of military personnel sitting in specially constructed seats down in the end zone. Mr. Huizenga has one of the nicest places to watch a football game. We went down to the field before the game and talked to the Patriots owner, Bob Kraft, for a while. I've met him a couple times. He lives here in Palm Beach in the wintertime, just a lovable little guy. I had a lot...

How about these fires out in Southern California -- Malibu? This is just, well, it's amazing, but it's not uncommon. I actually think these fires are worse than hurricanes. I wonder where in the world are the environmentalist wackos here trying to put the fires out? This has been an amazing thing to watch and to read about. I imagine if you were sitting in Southern California on Sunday, the experience of watching these fires and the media reaction was fascinating. But one thing stood out to...

Story #1: Congrats to Louisiana Governor-Elect Bobby JindalRUSH: By the way, congratulations to Bobby Jindal in Louisiana, a 36-year-old Republican elected governor over there on a platform of cleaning up corruption. You have to understand: This isn't supposed to happen. Liberals aren't supposed to be losing elections here when they're "about to win the White House," quote, unquote. This is not supposed to happen, especially in a state that they have run since the 1800s. So, congratulations to him....
