Mitt Romney survived the Santorum Surge, barely; Michele Bachmann suspended her campaign; Ron Paul, Newt, Huntsman are still kicking; as is Rick Perry, after going home to Texas to think things over.

RUSH: While we're sitting here worried about semantics and "sounding presidential," we've got a guy living and behaving outside the Constitution! We have a lawless regime here.

RUSH: Part of a warning I gave you to get ready going into this year was: The economic news is all going to be reported as great and good. "Obama's policies are finally taking root now! The economy was so much worse than anybody knew! Bush, Cheney had lied to the Obama transition team."

RUSH: This is lawless behavior by an out-of-control, rogue executive. This is what happens in banana republics, tinhorn dictatorships. In places like Venezuela, this is what happens -- all under the guise of populism and helping the middle class.

RUSH: Gerald Ford said that Ronald Reagan was unelectable. George H.W. Bush said that Ronald Reagan was unelectable.  The entire Republican establishment thought Ronald Reagan was unelectable because they were governed and informed by the Goldwater landslide defeat.  That's what they think will happen to every conservative.  Don't doubt me.

RUSH: The media is gonna be zeroing in on he's a pro-life extremist. He's racist, sexist, bigot, homophobe. They're gonna be zeroing in on all this and you're gonna find out how he bears up under it.  We are all going to find out.

RUSH: I just don't think this is gonna be the slam-dunk Steelers win everybody thinks it is.

RUSH: Republican voters are tired of their candidate being made fun of and laughed at 'cause they're stupid hicks -- when they're not, but they're characterized that way.

RUSH: Rank-and-file Democrats are scared to death.  They see what we see.

RUSH: The Democrats, Obama, the media, they want this over. They want Romney.

RUSH: My guess is that most people are gonna look at it and take it entirely personally and think, "Wow, this is cool." They're not gonna see the extra-constitutionality of it, the illegality of it, the tax consequences of it, the cost to them of it.
