You\u2019re next on the EIB Network.  Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  Based on what you\u2019re saying about the Republican Party abandoning a large chunk of the American population &#8212; including conservatives &#8212; or even being any real opposition to the Democrats on Obamacare and apparently everything else, I\u2019m wondering whether Sarah Palin\u2019s recent gambit that if the GOP&#8230; I think she calls them the GOP brain trust on the Greta show.  If the GOP is indeed abandoning her as well as a large swath of American voters, she\u2019s going independent.  Palin is a prominent Republican. Even beyond what Ted Cruz or Mike Lee has said, she\u2019s broached the topic of going outside the GOP if need be, and maybe she\u2019s right on target there. Maybe she can lead the way out of this conundrum of the Dems and the GOP, apparently, being joined at the hip, at least on Obamacare and probably a lot more.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, you mean by going third party?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah, or thing if&#8230; Turn the party over to her she\u2019ll go third.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, wait a minute.  I think I mighta missed something.  Nobody is gonna turn the party over to anyone.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/palin-nra.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, what I mean is she\u2019s saying if they don\u2019t give the party to the conservatives to run this, then the GOP is gonna run into another disaster like they did with Romney, like they did with McCain, like they did with Bob Dole. And that basically this is a time, she\u2019s saying, laying down the gambit (sic) now saying that she\u2019ll go third party. She\u2019ll go independent, and maybe this is a time when an independent third-party run can win.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Oh.  Oh.  I see.  Back to that. There is no evidence that a third party wins.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Rush, can I tell you something?  Maybe don\u2019t call it a third party. Call it &#8220;the new second party.&#8221;  Just like when the Republican Party was born, when the old party went the way of the Whigs, that basically the conservatives&#8230; What you really got here is &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You know what that is?  That would be taking over the Republican Party &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  That\u2019s what I was just kind of saying.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_79273\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/GOPPalin.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  &#8212; which is what has to happen.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  That\u2019s what I was saying initially.  In other words, you really got Washington, the establishment, against the American people. The current Republican establishment is tied at the hip with the Democrats.  So basically you\u2019ve got a new second party, really forming around what Sarah Palin is saying, and she could be the titular leader.  She\u2019s the head of it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So you\u2019re excited about Sarah Palin maybe providing the impetus and the leadership at least titular for a new Republican Party?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I think she\u2019s the most prominent one.  I keep saying if she gets out there, like when she was on the Greta show the other day talking about it&#8230; If she can get out there, I think&#8230; I mean, obviously she provokes a lot of emotion in people pro and con, but if she can get out there and get her message across, I think they\u2019re afraid of her in Washington.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I don\u2019t doubt that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Republicans and Democrats are afraid of her and what\u2019s got a new &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  They\u2019re not gonna cede &#8212; c-e-d-e &#8212; anything to her, or to anybody else, for that matter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Here\u2019s Greg in Nashua, New Hampshire.
