Story #1: Rush Has Great Night at Steelers-Redskins Game
RUSH: Warning: It could possibly end up being a giddy program today. Got back from Washington, DC, at 4:30 this morning, finally got into bed at five o'clock, went in for the Redskins-Steelers last night, and I want to thank the Redskins coach Jim Zorn and his wife, Joy. We were guests of theirs last night, got to go down on the field and chew the fat with Coach Zorn and watch the game from his box with his wife and some houseguest that he had in town. It was just a great night. We had to wait to leave last night. We waited in the suite for him to come up after his press conference after the game, but apparently it takes ages, it takes years to clear the parking lots at FedEx Field, 92,000 people in there, so we waited for about an hour-and-45 minutes after the game and headed to Baltimore Washington International, which is the closest airport to the Washington Redskins Stadium in Landover, Maryland, so we got home and rolled into bed at five o'clock, and here we are.
 Story #2: Greek Paper Heralds End of Jewish Domination in US
RUSH: David Frum's diary today at National Review Online, listen to this -- and if you're Jewish and haven't voted yet, look at me. "The Greek newspaper Avriani features today a big photograph of Obama and the headline: 'The End of Jewish Domination in the United States.'" Frum posted a link to the news roundup from the Athens news agency that cites the headline, "The World Rejoices." If Obama does win, are you prepared to see militant Muslims around the world in Arab countries dancing in the streets and throwing parties? You probably will see that. The Drive-Bys may not show that to you. They might keep that from public view. But the Greek newspaper Avriani features today a big photograph of Obama and the headline, "The End of Jewish Domination in the United States."
Story #3: Jewish Paper: Obama Made Secret Deal with Abbas
RUSH: Okay, here we have a website called www.IsraelNationalNews.com. It's by Hana Levi Julian. "Democratic presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama privately expressed his support for a new Arab state within Israel's current borders, including eastern Jerusalem, during his meeting with Palestinian Authority Chairman and Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah this summer. According to a report published Tuesday in the Lebanese newspaper al-Ahbar, Obama told Abbas that he supports a PA state, and Arab 'rights to east Jerusalem' as well.
"The sources said Abbas and PA [Palestinian Authority] Prime Minister Salam Fayyad 'heard the best things they ever heard from an American president' during the meeting. However, said sources quoted in the report, the candidate asked them to keep his declaration a secret. PA spokesman Nimar Hamad said he had no comment on the remarks, other than to describe the briefing Abbas and Fayyad had given to the presidential hopeful. ... PA Arabs who live in Gaza were reportedly celebrating in the streets with impromptu demonstrations, waving Hamas flags in anticipation of an Obama win, according to Voice of Israel government radio."
We know that we had an outsourced fundraising, you know, effort going on from Gaza for Obama. Ah, take it what it is, the IsraelNationalNews.com website here. But keep in mind, ladies and gentlemen, this little passage here that leaders claim presidential candidate Obama asked them on to keep his remarks about East Jerusalem secret is consistent with his instructions in Iraq when he was talking to commanders on the ground there when he went back in July before he moved over to Berlin. He asked them to keep his remarks secret as well, and to not leak them.
Story #4: Republicans File Lawsuit in New Hampshire
RUSH: New Hampshire is another state that is thought to be in the Barry bag, but Barry didn't win New Hampshire. Hillary did, and they've got Barry up 14 points in New Hampshire. But I have a spy in New Hampshire. Here's the report. Turnout very, very heavy, 20 to 25% of registered voters in this particular district where the spy is -- they're both small towns -- voted in the first two hours. I don't know what to make of that, nobody does. Twenty to 25% voted in the first two hours. New Hampshire is 96% white and independents, and they've gone McCain the last two cycles. And yet local state polls say it is a Barry 14% margin. So if it is an Obama 14% margin, then why this? Fox just reported that the Republican Party has filed suit in New Hampshire against the secretary of state. They say that in a number of precincts Republican Party poll watchers are being kept as far as 40 feet from the new registrations table so that they're unable to verify new voters against the records of new registrations. So they're trying to steal New Hampshire. They've kicked Republican monitors out in Philadelphia because, as minority party, they have no right to be there, according to a liberal judge. The Republican Party hopes to have this case heard by a judge in the next couple minutes so the illegal situations could be corrected immediately. But no Republicans allowed at the new registrations table.
Story #5: ID Required for Barry's Election Night Party in Chicago
RUSH: By the way, you people in Chicago tonight, if you're going to go to Barry's big party in Grant Park, you better have a photo ID. You can't get into Barry's big bash without a photo ID, but you sure as hell can vote in Chicago without one! And you apparently can vote in New Hampshire without one, too.
Story #6: Tampa Website Shows Rampant Voter Problems
RUSH: I just had this link sent to me. There is a map from MyFoxTampaBay.com. It's a Google map that shows areas in the Tampa area of Florida, and actually much farther out than just Tampa, all the voting problems that are being reported in Florida. I just went to the Palm Beach Post website, "Ah, not very many problems out there at all, things seem to be going along pretty well." Well, I just got a note from somebody that tried to vote in West Palm Beach, walked in there, and the machine didn't scan the votes. The ballot wasn't scanned and so this person took the ballot up to the person running the place, said, "The vote didn't scan," and the guy said, "That's okay, just put it here in the emergency box." "No, I want another ballot and I want you tear this up and I want to vote again, my vote didn't --" "No, no, no, no, put it in the emergency box, everything in there gets counted." Right. Everything in the emergency box gets counted. How does anybody know that everything in the emergency box gets counted?
Here's something else for those of you here in the West Palm Beach area and certain districts of south Florida, I haven't voted yet, but I've been told, they got another new ballot this time around, and apparently the place where you vote for either Tim Mahoney, the guy who had three affairs or Tom Rooney, the former West Point graduate, JAG, judge adjutant general, he's a very accomplished guy, served military, apparently the place to vote for that race is hard to find on the ballot, it's all the way down on the lower left did you say? They list every presidential candidate. They put Mahoney and Rooney under all the presidential candidates? By the way, do you know, I saw this last Thursday, I don't know if it was one day or not, but the Palm Beach Post published their voters guide and left off McCain-Palin. Somebody faxed it to me when I was in Indianapolis getting ready for the Colts-Patriots. And by gosh, sure as hell, when I looked at it, there are more people running for president in this country than you ever knew. We got the Socialist Workers Party, the Communist Party of America, the Red, White, and Blue Party, must have been ten different parties in the voter guide, but no McCain-Palin in the Palm Beach Post. You know, we sit here and laugh at this, but this, again, is the media.
Story #7: El Rushbo Makes Bet with Snerdley on Pennsylvania
RUSH: There's shenanigans going on all over the place today. They're trying to steal Philadelphia, they're trying to steal Virginia, and I mentioned earlier, I've got good feelings about both states. I'll tell you what I'll do, Snerdley. I will put my money where my mouth is. Snerdley professes to be a big National Football League fan, and he has the NFL Sunday Ticket on DirecTV. Now, we just finished week nine. There are 17 weeks in a season, so we're over halfway through. And Snerdley has this massive plasma TV and he has this massive receiver and all this audio-video gear, but he just discovered he hasn't been watching the games in high definition -- he forgot to order the HD package for the NFL Sunday Ticket. I said, So I said, "Snerdley, I will pay for your season-to-date upgrade. It won't cost you a full season, but if McCain loses Pennsylvania, I'll front you the money, and if McCain wins Pennsylvania, we'll figure out what you can do for me." It's so hard because as a member of the staff, he already does so much, it's incalculable. No, Snerdley, your contribution is not overrated, no.
Story #8: Shazam! Palin Cleared in Troopergate on Election Eve
RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, did you happen to notice -- and you had to look really dig deep -- that last night Sarah Palin was cleared of all ethics charges in the Alaska Troopergate thing? Shazam! Why, it's fascinating, isn't it? The night before the election, too.
