Nice to have you with us, sir. Welcome to Open Line Friday.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank you, Rush. It\u2019s nice to get through the firewall.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125110.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignright\"\/>CALLER: Anyway, Obama has been saying that John McCain will continue the third Bush term. Well, if he picks Hillary Clinton, the perception will be that it\u2019s just going to be the Clintons\u2019 third term. And so that\u2019s going to blow his whole argument out of the water. The same with Florida voting. They can\u2019t use that now in November, because they also disenfranchised many voters.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, they can\u2019t, but they will. They\u2019ll continue to talk about it, but they can\u2019t because the Drive-Bys won\u2019t call \u2019em on their hypocrisy. Hillary\u2019s not going to be the veep. It isn\u2019t going to happen.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, he certainly can\u2019t do that, because that will definitely be the perception, and I don\u2019t think he wants all that baggage, and he knows that he\u2019ll end up being the perceptive vice president by the time &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><BR\/>RUSH: Well, it\u2019s worse than that. I mean, look, the whole vetting process. The Clintons wouldn\u2019t sit down for it. When you start vetting your vice presidential nominee, they have to open up on all the finances, they have to do an FBI background check. The Clintons are not going to sit for this, they\u2019re not going to do it, it isn\u2019t going to happen, especially Bill is not going to do it. Here, listen to this. This just cleared the wires. It\u2019s from the New York Daily News this morning: &#8216;The Obama camp is preparing to embrace Hillary Clinton enthusiastically &#8212; but they\u2019re reaching for the 10-foot pole to keep her rabid husband at bay. Bill Clinton\u2019s erratic and increasingly sulfuric behavior on the campaign trail has perplexed senior Barack Obama campaign officials trying to figure out how to deploy him in the fall campaign. &#8230; A senior Obama adviser, however, said Bill Clinton and Obama were likely to appear together in rural areas, where blue-collar white voters favored Hillary overwhelmingly. &#8216;He could have been a great attack dog on [John] McCain,\u2019 the source lamented. &#8216;He was rehabilitated, a total rock star, leader of the Democratic Party and an elder statesman. All of that is gone. There\u2019s a lot of consensus on that in the party.\u2019 &#8230; Bubba\u2019s bozo act became so notorious even a fan, Queens Rep. Gary Ackerman, was willing to crack a joke at his expense. Asked Thursday if the Obama-Clinton ticket he would like to see wouldn\u2019t also &#8216;marry\u2019 the duo\u2019s weaknesses, Ackerman quipped, &#8216;Yeah &#8212; and you also don\u2019t want to marry their spouse!&#8221; <\/line><BR\/> <\/line><BR\/>So, at any rate, who knows what these people are going to do. I can\u2019t see Hillary on the ticket. And there\u2019s a big, big story, have it here in the Stack of Stuff, about how the Senate is not going to roll out the welcome carpet for Mrs. Clinton when she returns with some especially created leadership position. So if you read the tea leaves right now, the Democrats want rid of the Clintons as much as can be done, and that isn\u2019t going to happen if she ends up on the ticket. <\/line><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Portland, Maine, this is Henry.
