RUSH: Okay, so what\u2019s the subtext for the debate tonight<\/a>? Not even a subtext. What is the spin, the predebate spin? The predebate spin for the debate tonight is, “Don\u2019t expect too much from Biden, he\u2019s always been an idiot.” Well, that\u2019s what it is. We got a montage, “Joe just needs to be Joe.” Well, what\u2019s Joe? Joe\u2019s an idiot. They\u2019re really trying to tamp down the expectations of Biden in this debate tonight. He\u2019s got the unenviable task of trying to defend Obama\u2019s record and his record, which Obama couldn\u2019t do. So everybody is revved up to watch this thing tonight. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is gonna get a big audience, too. You know, the first debate, 65, 70 million people. One of these guys from California that projects the election based on the economy (they haven\u2019t been wrong since 1980) one of these guys says, “Look, the thing to take away from the first debate is the size of the audience that tuned in.” He says 70 million people tuning in means that there are a whole lot of people out there who really are paying attention and want to change their vote. I mean, not so much want to change their vote, but are open to changing their vote. That 70 million is the greatest indication of dissatisfaction with status quo. That if a small number of people tuned in, “Ah, no big deal. Why watch this debate? I\u2019m not changing my mind.” But 70 million watching means that there are a lot of people not happy with current circumstances. I thought it was a great point of view. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: We put together a montage for the big debate tonight, a little montage of Obama and other Democrats and their singular advice for Joe Biden tonight in his debate with Paul Ryan…<\/p>\n

DIANE SAWYER: What\u2019s your message to Joe Biden about tomorrow night?<\/p>\n

OBAMA: Well I… (big sigh) You know, I think Joe just needs to be Joe.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

BIDEN 08.14.12: They\u2019re going to put y\u2019all back in chains!<\/a><\/p>\n

OBAMA: Joe just needs to be Joe.<\/p>\n

BIDEN 01.30.07: (background noise) You got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.<\/p>\n

OBAMA: Joe just needs to be Joe.<\/p>\n

BIDEN 07.11.06: (background noise) You cannot go to a 7\/Eleven or a Dunkin\u2019 Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I\u2019m not joking!<\/p>\n

OBAMA: Joe just needs to be Joe.<\/p>\n

BIDEN 06.27.12: My grandpop used to say, “Joey, when the guy in Dunmore, the next town over, is out of work it\u2019s an economic slowdown. When your brother-in-law is out of work, it\u2019s a recession. When you\u2019re out of work it\u2019s a depression.” It\u2019s a depression for millions and millions of Americans!<\/p>\n

OBAMA: Joe just needs to be Joe.<\/p>\n

BIDEN 10.02.12: (audience noise) This is deadly earnest. How they can justify, raisin\u2019 taxes on the middle class that\u2019s been buried the last four years. How in Lord\u2019s name?<\/p>\n

OBAMA: Joe just needs to be Joe.<\/p>\n

BIDEN 09.09.08: Chuck Graham, state senator, is here. Stand up, Chuck! Let \u2019em see ya! (rimshot) Oh, God love you. What am I talking about? (rimshot) I tell you what, you\u2019re making everybody else stand up, though, pal. (rimshot) I tell you what, stand up for Chuck! (rimshot).<\/p>\n

OBAMA: Joe just needs to be Joe.<\/p>\n

RUSH: “Joe just needs to be Joe.”<\/p>\n

That was Chuck Graham, state senator from Missouri, who\u2019s in a wheelchair. “Stand up, Chuck! Let \u2019em see ya! Oh, God love you, Chuck. Oh, what the hell happened? What am I talking about?” Yeah, Joe just needs to be Joe. And I\u2019m sure you could think of countless other examples that we coulda plugged into our montage. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: We sit around here and we laugh at and make fun of Joe Biden, but I just want to remind you of something. This guy used to be the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee during the… I don\u2019t know if he was ranking during the Clarence Thomas hearings, but he was there.<\/p>\n

He can be as below-the-belt sleazy, dishonest, typical left-wing as anybody out there. He may now have this image of bumbling old grandfather running around saying inane things. But he has a track record of sleaze: Clarence Thomas, Robert Bork, Ed Meese. This guy can employ all of the filthy tactics that anybody on the left can. And don\u2019t think for a moment he won\u2019t. He\u2019s gonna come out for Ryan, and the way he does this is he will go overboard complimenting Ryan.<\/p>\n

He\u2019ll come out and say he\u2019s so honored to be here. Paul Ryan, he\u2019ll talk about him as a great up-and-comer, how we\u2019re all lucky to have such a caring and decent guy in the House. He\u2019ll go on and on and on about how wonderful a guy Ryan is, and then say, “But he just doesn\u2019t know what he\u2019s talking about. He really cares, but, I mean, come on, man! He doesn\u2019t really have a clue. He tries. He\u2019s working real hard.”<\/p>\n

He\u2019ll be as condescending as he can be. You wait! The purpose of this is he\u2019s gonna try to rattle Ryan, get him off his game, try and get him to go personal with Biden. Ryan knows this, and I think he\u2019s well prepared for it. I just want to warn you: Biden is not this bumbling, doddering old grandfather that\u2019s half senile. Now, it is true — it is true — that Biden has not faced media questions in five months.<\/p>\n

He hasn\u2019t. They\u2019ve shielded him. You know the last time he had any major media time? It was when he went out and talked about how he has no problem with same-sex marriage, and this was prior to the Democrat convention. If you recall, Obama was holding that in reserve. Obama hoped to light up his convention. At the time Obama was thinking about it. What was the word they were using? He was reflecting. (interruption)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Oh, yes, yes. He was “evolving.” Obama was evolving on the issue of same-sex marriage, \u2019cause up to that moment he had not come out for it. But he was “evolving” on it. He was gonna make a big, grand announcement where he had completed his evolving, his evolution. It was gonna be either at the convention or shortly after, because there was some damage they had to limit.<\/p>\n

A number of African-American churches and preachers want no part of same-sex marriage. In fact, there\u2019s a group of black preachers that\u2019s gonna spend a million dollars running an ad campaign trying to convince 25% of blacks in this country not to vote for Obama. Now, I don\u2019t know how much they\u2019re gonna succeed with a million bucks, but that\u2019s what they\u2019re gonna spend.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a big issue for some of these black churches and black preachers, and they don\u2019t like any of it. So Obama was evolving, and Biden went out there, and one of the theories was that Biden preempted Obama on purpose because there was talk at the time of brooming him and replacing him with Hillary. Biden didn\u2019t wanna be humiliated. Biden didn\u2019t want to be thrown off the ticket. Biden, for all we know, wants to be president someday!<\/p>\n

He\u2019s run before, and if he gets thrown off the ticket, that kind of kiboshes that. So some people theorized that Biden was saying, “Oh, you\u2019re gonna throw me off the ticket? Here, watch this,” and he went out and stole all the thunder on same-sex marriage, A, and then possibly embarrassed Obama. He kind of forced Obama to go ahead and finish his “evolving.” Some people thought that Biden might be taken to the woodshed.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

He might have been taken to the woodshed, because ever since then we haven\u2019t seen Biden. Since then, we haven\u2019t heard from Biden. Now, they built an exact replica of the set tonight for Biden to rehearse, and he has been rehearsing with Chris Van Hollen, congressman from Maryland. He\u2019s an equally sleazy, mean, potentially very mean guy. And that\u2019s what Biden is. I just warn you again.<\/p>\n

I fully expect him to come out here and be overwhelmingly gracious and nice and complimentary until he digs the knife in. It\u2019ll be in a grandfatherly, “I got all kinds of wisdom. This a great up-and-comer, but it\u2019s not his time yet. We\u2019re so fortunate to have a guy like Paul Ryan in our government. We\u2019re so fortunate to have man of just great potential. But, Paul, you don\u2019t know what you\u2019re talking about yet, man!<\/p>\n

“You gotta keep working on it. I really love you, man, but you don\u2019t have a clue.” It will be something like that, mark my words. If not at the beginning of the debate, it will be somewhere in the debate. But it\u2019s gonna be condescension. “I know all. I\u2019ve been here years. I got experience. You\u2019re a neophyte. You don\u2019t know what you\u2019re talking about. You\u2019re a nice guy, but you\u2019re really a fool.”<\/p>\n

RUSH: Bob in Crossville, Tennessee. Folks, Snerdley loves calls from the South. We do get calls from other states. It\u2019s just he loves the South. He loves \u2019em, loves the accents. This is Bob in Tennessee. Bob, hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hi, Rush. I\u2019m not originally from Tennessee. I was with you from day one in WABC in New York.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, so you fled!<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I fled. Like you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: (laughing) Yes. Yes, I hear you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m reading and hearing this commentary about how Old Joe is such a great debater, and my recollection of 2008 vice presidential debate is not that Joe demolished Sarah Palin.<\/p>\n

RUSH: He didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I think it went the other way.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. As I saw your call up there and your question, “Do you recall Biden beating Sarah Palin?” I don\u2019t. I don\u2019t. Drudge\u2019s headline is, “America\u2019s Favorite Punch Line,” with a picture of Biden. Look, I told you earlier what Biden\u2019s gonna do.
