\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: I just want to jog your memory a little bit. You remember how the Democrats went all the way back to the time Mitt Romney was at Bain Capital, and they were ripping Romney as a friend of the rich and a guy who didn\u2019t care about the poor and ripping his time at Bain Capital? Let me just tell you: Bill Clinton\u2019s scandals in the nineties are a lot more recent than Romney\u2019s activities at Bain.<\/p>\n

Romney stepped down from Bain Capital in 1994. The Clinton-Lewinsky stuff is 1997<\/a>. So it\u2019s permissible go all the way back to Bain Capital and rip Romney to shreds. Do whatever you want. Go back in time, rip Palin, that doesn\u2019t matter. But you can\u2019t rip Obama, can\u2019t rip Jeremiah Wright, can\u2019t rip Monica Lewinsky, can\u2019t rip the Clintons. Not according to the Republican establishment. But Clinton\u2019s sex scandals are a lot more recent than Romney\u2019s evil activities at Bain Capital.<\/p>\n

And they weren\u2019t evil, by the way, and there were no scandals at Bain Capital. Nevertheless, it was all portrayed just as fact that Romney was at Bain, that he co-founded it, and that was a scandal in and of itself. Tea Party super PACs, by the way, raised three times the money of the GOP super PACs last year, and that scares the establishment. Tea Party super PACs. That\u2019s why they also want the IRS investigating the Tea Party. The Tea Party\u2019s out-raising the GOP, super PAC-wise.<\/p>\n

Charlie Cook, noted political handicapper, has a piece in his thing, The Cook Report: “Is Hillary Clinton Too Old?”<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: That\u2019s right. That\u2019s right. The left went all the way back to Romney\u2019s days in prep school, remember? He supposedly cut a kid\u2019s hair because he hated him. By the way, Romney said over the weekend — and the media\u2019s trumpeting this — that the Lewinsky scandal has nothing to do with Hillary Clinton. We ought to not go there. We ought to focus on Hillary\u2019s time in government with Obama as secretary of state. We need not go back to the Lewinsky scandal, because she had nothing to do with it.<\/p>\n

Well, Diane Blair, remember her? The late Diane Blair kept a journal. It was released last week, or the week before last, and Diane Blair, in that journal, said that Hillary blamed herself for the Lewinsky scandal, because she wasn\u2019t a good enough wife to Bill. What a crock is that? That\u2019s what was in Diane Blair\u2019s journal. Hillary was handling the “bimbo eruptions.” Kathleen Willey, who was harassed by Clinton, is out saying that Hillary Clinton is the War on Women — and she\u2019s got a point.<\/p>\n

Charlie Cook, who is one of the deans of handicapping elections in Washington, has a thing that you can subscribe to called The Cook Report, and it has all the predictions and polling data and handicapping, and you pay for Charlie\u2019s analysis. Here\u2019s the latest issue of the Cook Report at the NationalJournal.com website: “Is Hillary Clinton Too Old to Run? — Entering a presidential race is effectively a nine-year commitment. One year to run, and then another eight if she runs for reelection and wins.”<\/p>\n

He\u2019s the first of the mainstream guys to bring this up. We, of course — I — did it in my own inimitable way some years ago asking a very mature and relevant open-ended question. I asked the question without knowing or providing the answer. We put a picture of Mrs. Clinton up at RushLimbaugh.com and we simply asked, “Do the American people want to observe the aging of this woman in office?”<\/p>\n

We put a picture up there.<\/line><\/p>\n

We left it open-ended. But now here comes Charlie Cook, and he basically says she\u2019s just too old to run. He points out that she will be as old as Reagan when he was elected, and they talked about Reagan and early onset Alzheimer\u2019s that nobody knew about while he was president. Mrs. Clinton has had her own problems with memory. She testified grand juries about the Rose Law Firm billing records and a number of things, and we immortalized it in parody.\"original\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(playing of parody)<\/p>\n

RUSH: From the Grooveyard of Forgotten Favorites we immortalize Mrs. Clinton\u2019s early onset memory problems there. That\u2019s Charlie Cook\u2019s got it out in the open. Is she too old to run?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Here is Steve in Daytona, Florida. Steve, I\u2019m glad you waited. Great to have you on the program, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey. Thank you very much for taking my call, Rush. I appreciate all you do to keep us peons in the game here. Hey, you know, one thing you forgot to mention when you were talking about how far the Democrats like to reach to find items they can bring up against potential candidates is how far they went back for George Bush\u2019s DWI.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, hell. You\u2019re right. But not just that. Do you remember back in 1992, they accused George H. W. Bush of getting on an HR 71 and flying to Paris and negotiating with the Iranians to keep our hostages in hostage.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Absolutely. You know, it\u2019s not what really happens; it\u2019s what they think might happen.<\/p>\n

RUSH: It\u2019s the seriousness of the charge, not the nature of the evidence.<\/p>\n

CALLER: There you go. But, you know, here\u2019s the deal. The Republicans either need to go for the throats and get it over with or get out of the game.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: Steve —<\/p>\n

CALLER: I mean, you know, enough\u2019s enough.<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, no. Steve, it\u2019s now clear what\u2019s happening. Folks, there is no conservative movement inside the Beltway. The conservative movement is everywhere throughout the rest of the country. But there is no conservative movement in Washington. There\u2019s no conservative movement in the media. There isn\u2019t any conservative movement in the Republican Party. The closest that you would come would be The Heritage Foundation. Hillsdale College has a satellite office there, FreedomWorks, but they\u2019re really not of Washington. They got an office there, but they do their work out in the grassroots.<\/p>\n

In terms of Republican electoral politics, there is no conservative movement inside Washington. Therefore there\u2019s no conservative impetus in the consultant class, in the political class, in the elected establishment class. What there is, is quite the opposite. There is an effort to undermine the conservative movement inside the Beltway. That\u2019s what Caddell is saying here<\/a>. If the Republican Party establishment is willing to side with Obama on IRS investigations of the Tea Party, the meaning is pretty clear. They do not want the Tea Party to have anything to do with the Republican — and they really would prefer to lose rather than win with the Tea Party claiming credit, any part of the credit.<\/p>\n

If the Republican Party wins because of the Tea Party, not good. And if you doubt me, let\u2019s go back to 2010, the midterms. A clear Tea Party landslide. You know as well as I do that the Republican Party made no effort to connect with the Tea Party at that time. It was a made-to-order connection. Here you had average, ordinary Americans getting involved in politics for the first time in an organized way, and they were so successful. What were they opposed to: Obamacare and the debt. They were opposed to the Democrat Party. And they simply stood up and said, “No more” and delivered one of the biggest landslide defeats for the Democrat Party in our lifetimes. And the Republican didn\u2019t move an inch in their direction.<\/line><\/p>\n

Now, there are some Tea Party members in the House and Senate, and even before they were called Tea Party people, they were there, conservatives, but look how they\u2019re marginalized by the establishment. So it\u2019s clear to me the establishment Republicans would just as soon lose a couple of elections if that meant getting rid of the Tea Party. Now, you\u2019re probably saying, “Why, Rush, why?” The Republican establishment is really no different than the Democrats in terms of wanting there to be a Big Government. That\u2019s what Washington is, Big Government.<\/p>\n

Everybody that works there wants to control it. Everybody there wants the power of being in charge of the Big Government. The people that want to reduce the role of government, they\u2019re the enemy. It doesn\u2019t matter if they\u2019re Democrats, if they\u2019re Republicans, if they\u2019re Martians, they\u2019re the enemy. It\u2019s all about money and controlling it, being in charge of it. Nobody wants it to get smaller there. Nobody there wants it to get smaller. They want to run it. They\u2019ll trade winning elections back and forth, the party establishments will.<\/p>\n

However, the thing that remains the enigma to me is the Republican establishment doesn\u2019t seem to get that the Democrat Party establishment does not want to coexist with them. They don\u2019t want to share stewardship of Big Government, election to election. The Democrat establishment wants to wipe them out and on the surface it doesn\u2019t appear the Republican establishment gets that. That\u2019s the curious thing. Anyway, I appreciate the call, Steve, very much.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: to Floyd, Iowa, next. This is Jennifer. Great to have you on the program.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, Rush. How are you today?<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019m well. Thank you very much.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Good. Hey, I was just calling about the Republican Party. I feel like the head of the Republican Party, they\u2019re Democrats. They\u2019re telling us not to say anything critical about Hillary Clinton. I mean, that\u2019s just what the Democrats want.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Not only that, they\u2019re telling us not to say anything critical about Bill Clinton.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Mmm-hmm. Yeah. I look at that, and to me it\u2019s like it\u2019s just a game to them, and they should be fighting for this country. They shouldn\u2019t worry about this game. They should worry about getting the right person to also help bring the country back to the way it was.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, you know, you\u2019ve just hit on something else that, Jennifer, is really important to note, and that is this: The Republican establishment does not think the country is in crisis, as you and I do. This level of debt, Obamacare, unemployment, economy, it\u2019s just a cycle, like there are always cycles in the country and in politics. But there is no crisis. The country, as founded, is not threatened. That\u2019s kook talk, they think. They really do. That is, I think, one of the most important points to make in illustrating the difference.<\/p>\n

There is no crisis. There is no need to save the country. The country is not threatened as founded. That\u2019s silly talk, they think. Now, you and I look at this entirely different. We think there is an assault on the country by the Democrat Party and by the worldwide left. We think there is an existential threat to our children and grandchildren, that the American dream for them is getting harder and harder and harder — and that it\u2019s being done on purpose. The Republican establishment don\u2019t even want to consider that.<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t even want to go there. That, to them, is embarrassing kook talk. So to sign on with that, to agree with that is to be compared to the kooks who believe it. So there\u2019s not even really any common ground there. Now, as to the criticism of the Clintons, it really shouldn\u2019t surprise anybody that this is the Republican view. They don\u2019t want there to be any criticism of Obama. There are two reasons why they don\u2019t want Hillary being criticized.<\/p>\n

Well, there are more than two. The two basic reasons are Hillary\u2019s a woman, and the Republicans are in the middle of being accused of running a War on Women. So any criticism of Hillary feeds into the idea that Republicans hate women. So they don\u2019t even want to go there. The second reason is that they look at the criticism of the Clintons in the nineties as unsuccessful — in fact, not only unsuccessful, they think that it hurt.<\/line><\/p>\n

They think the never-ending criticism of the Clintons and harping on Lewinsky and impeachment actually damaged the Republican Party, and they just don\u2019t want to revisit it. There are smaller reasons, in addition to those two big ones. But “the War on Women” and “it didn\u2019t work last time” are two of the big ones. Maybe a third reason that\u2019s equally as relevant is along the lines of the War on Women: First woman president, perhaps, potentially.<\/p>\n

They just don\u2019t want to go there. They don\u2019t want to do that kind of criticism. They don\u2019t want to have to defend people that do it. I\u2019m telling you, they believe this. Don\u2019t doubt me. They believe this notion that\u2019s been put out there by the media and so forth that independents don\u2019t like criticism of any Democrat, the independents. “If you start criticizing Democrats, be it Obama or Hillary or Bill, the independents are gonna leave you in droves.<\/p>\n

“The independents want us to work together. They don\u2019t want all of this partisanship.” The Republican Party, I\u2019m convinced, actually believe that. (interruption) Recent history. (interruption) No. Snerdley just said, “Well, they got their way with…” No. They think Obama won because people like us were being too critical of him. If we\u2019d have just stayed away from Jeremiah Wright and all that stuff, then Obama might have been beaten.<\/p>\n

But, no, we had to go make it personal. The independents didn\u2019t like that. They blamed the whole party for it. I guarantee you, they think that. Now, the Hillary candidacy. You know, I\u2019m gonna remind you of this: I have been wrong every time I have predicted Mrs. Clinton\u2019s future movements<\/a>. You know, I\u2019m a student of the women\u2019s movement when walking behind it, and that\u2019s how I\u2019ve observed Mrs. Clinton.<\/p>\n

Every time I have predicted she wouldn\u2019t run, I\u2019ve been wrong. I didn\u2019t think she would run for New York City Senator, and she did. That\u2019s really the only time I thought that, and there might have been a second time. But I\u2019m right back to I don\u2019t think she\u2019s gonna run in 2016, and I\u2019ll go further. Even if I\u2019m wrong again, and if she does run, I don\u2019t know of any front-runner who has actually won anything in a long, long time, and she is the presumptive front-runner right now.<\/p>\n

Then you have Charlie Cook doing a story, you know, she\u2019s too old. She\u2019s gonna be too old in 2016. What he\u2019s not saying… (interruption) What does her age matter? Well, gosh, don\u2019t make me say this, folks, but nobody had a problem with Reagan\u2019s age. She\u2019d be just as old as Reagan when he ran. Charlie Cook himself says here, “If Hillary is elected, she\u2019ll be as old as Reagan was in his first term.” Well, nobody holds that against Reagan, even now. So why we holding it against Hillary?<\/p>\n

What does it matter she\u2019d be as old as Reagan? If it wasn\u2019t a problem for the country when Reagan was elected, his age, why would it be for Hillary? (interruption) Well, it is physical. It has to do with appearances. We are who we are. And, look, folks, connect the dots yourself. You know, there\u2019s no need to state it here. (interruption) What is the only difference in Hillary Clinton at 70 and Ronald Reagan at 70? (interruption) You\u2019re saying that Botox and plastic surgery can overcome this? (interruption)<\/p>\n

Okay. (interruption) Okay, then it\u2019s not a problem. Then you\u2019re saying that Charlie Cook is wrong? She not gonna look old because of Botox, the John Kerry treatment, and other kinds of…? (interruption) Okay, then if they can make Hillary not look her age, is what you\u2019re saying? (interruption) That\u2019s gotta be what Cook\u2019s talking about. “What is this, too old? Reagan wasn\u2019t too old. Why is she too old?” It\u2019s gotta be something else.<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s another factor to this, and right here it is in the National Journal. I don\u2019t know who the author of the piece is. This is where Ron Fournier writes. Maybe it\u2019s him. It doesn\u2019t say. “Is Hillary Clinton Blocking a New Generation of Democratic Leaders?” In other words, these stories are already here in the media. You got Charlie Cook saying she too old, and now here\u2019s the National Journal asking, is she “blocking a new generation”?<\/p>\n

In other words, there are some Democrats in the media starting to say, “Wait a minute. Okay, we have given her her chance. She ran in 2008. That was her chance for payback, where we paid her back for all of the excrement sandwiches she ate during the Clinton years around this and the White House and all that. Are we gonna do it again? Are we gonna go out of our way to make sure this woman gets to be president just so she gets paid back for what she did for us all those years ago?”<\/p>\n

In the meantime, when you go back to the Democrat convention, they had that young mayor from San Antonio, he and his brother. Ah, what\u2019s the name? I\u2019m having a mental block on the name. His mother is a huge community organizer activist there. But they didn\u2019t have, other than that guy and his brother, the mayor of San Antonio, and they — (interruption) Julian Castro, that\u2019s right, and his mother\u2019s Rosie, and she\u2019s like a godfatherette. You don\u2019t want to… So, other than that, they didn\u2019t have any young people in their convention. They didn\u2019t have a bench. But there are some people in that party, I guarantee you, who are even now quietly buzzing, “Are you kidding me? We\u2019ve gotta put up with another presidential run by Hillary? Can\u2019t we move on?” There are gonna be some Democrats — remember, when it comes to primary elections in politics, the unity kind of gets thrown away. The battle between Hillary and Obama, for example.<\/line><\/p>\n

There are going to be some Democrats who are gonna think, “Hey, look, it\u2019s our turn. It\u2019s our turn to shine. We\u2019re younger. We\u2019re the future. We don\u2019t want these old, decrepit grave robber funeral crashers. We don\u2019t want these people continually running the party.” And on the other side of that you\u2019re gonna have Bill Clinton reading the riot act to them and telling them what will not be their future unless they get in line behind her. So it\u2019s gonna be fascinating to watch, \u2019cause Clinton wants back in there as much as she does, if not more. But, I mean, they both do. But in Mrs. Clinton\u2019s case, there\u2019s this huge item on the resume not yet done, POTUS. And as far as she and Bill are concerned, the job has been hers since 2000. When he left, she was next up.<\/p>\n

Now, not that year, but this deal in the Democrat Party that Hillary is owed big time for what she\u2019s done. If she hadn\u2019t behaved the way she did, if she hadn\u2019t remained supportive, who knows what would have happened to Clinton. She gave up her own life to advance his. So it\u2019s been payback time ever since she left Wellesley and went to Arkansas. And now supposedly 2016, finally, is when Hillary gets to dot the I, cross the T on her resume. But there\u2019s gonna be some younger people in the party who are gonna say, “Why do we have to put up with this?” The same old people that say, “Are we always gonna have either a Clinton or Bush?” with the occasional asterisk like Obama. So now you\u2019ve got the story: “Is Hillary Clinton Blocking a New Generation of Democratic Leaders?” Charlie Cook: “Hillary is gonna be too old in 2016.” I\u2019m just telling you, the ripples, the ripples are beginning in the Democrat side of things.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, I need to explain this. I just checked the e-mail. “Rush, why don\u2019t you know who writes these stories you\u2019re talking about?” There\u2019s a reason. The Mac OS X has a feature on their Internet browser that\u2019s called Reader. If you click on it, it strips everything but the text out of a Web page. All the ads, all-everything, just the text, but it does not, for some reason, print the name of the writer. It prints the link and the text body of the story, but it leaves out the byline. I do not know why. If I do not make a written note or if I don\u2019t make a specific effort to copy and paste that line with the writer\u2019s name, then it doesn\u2019t print. That\u2019s why. So if it doesn\u2019t say here who wrote it, it means I can\u2019t remember it and I didn\u2019t make a note of it.<\/p>\n

The second thing, the National Journal story on Mrs. Clinton actually is about the fact that there aren\u2019t any young Democrats, that the Clintons have frozen them out, that there is no bench. That this Hillary inevitability is keeping the Democrats from coming up with a group of potential young candidates. That they all think they don\u2019t have a prayer because the power structure has rigged the game that it\u2019s gonna be Hillary come hell or high water in 2016, and nobody is gonna waste their chance. And that\u2019s basically what the story\u2019s about. The worry in the story is she\u2019s too old. What if she loses? The Democrats got nothing, other than Biden, big whoop.<\/p>\n

But they do have a bench. They\u2019ve got that Castro guy, the mayor of San Antonio, and there are some people there. You know they do, they got some young people that want it, you just don\u2019t know about them because the Clintons, as Kathleen Willey said, the Clintons take all the oxygen. They use it all up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
