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

RUSH: You remember… Grab sound bite number seven. Yesterday on this program we played audio sound bites of Bill Clinton trying to explain away that he hadn\u2019t sold influence to his foundation, and he\u2019s talked to Hillary, and (impression), “You know, I talked to Hillary about that and I asked her, ‘Have you had people that have given me money come to you saying to you that they want something back for it?\u2019 And Hillary said, ‘No, not a single time, not ever.'”<\/p>\n

He had that little media event and he said (impression), “Hey, you know, I\u2019ve gotta pay the bills! Yes, I\u2019m gonna keep doing my $500,000 speeches. Somebody\u2019s gotta pay the bills around here. That\u2019s up to me. It\u2019s my responsibility. I\u2019m the man in the relationship — most of the time — and I gotta do it. So I\u2019m gonna keep doing it. Yeah, I haven\u2019t taken any capital gains! I mean, we take 10% here, 10% there. Yeah, there are different rules for us and them, and I\u2019m trying to make sure everybody knows that.” <\/line><\/p>\n

So the Drive-Bys are not happy with this. They\u2019re not happy for the impact it might have on Hillary — whose poll numbers, by the way, continue to plummet. Her likability and favorability are down. The Drive-Bys are getting concerned here, \u2019cause her numbers are really heading for the sewer now. I just saw something that just came out just moments ago and haven\u2019t had a chance to look into it in detail.<\/p>\n

But we have here a montage of the Drive-Bys unhappy with Clinton\u2019s performance yesterday. They are Gloria Borger at CNN, Michelle Bernard at the Bernard Center for Women, David Cantonese at US News and World Reports, Jeff Zeleny at Fox News, Brit Hume, Daniel Halper, Mark Halperin, Andrea Mitchell (NBC News, Washington), John King at CNN… There are a whole bunch of them here. This is the interview that Clinton did with Cynthia McFadden, and listen to their reaction.<\/p>\n

BORGER: Bill Clinton was a little testy in it, a little bit cranky.<\/p>\n

BERNARD: The president looked so defensive in this interview with Cynthia McFadden.<\/p>\n

CANTONESE: He didn\u2019t have the best answer.<\/p>\n

ZELENY: The tone of his voice made clear this is a very raw subject for him.<\/p>\n

HUME: Hey, he\u2019s gotta “pay the bills.” This from a man worth in the neighborhood of $140 million.<\/p>\n

HALPER: It\u2019s very shocking that the spouse of the candidate would be the first to give the interview.<\/p>\n

HALPERIN: That interview, I don\u2019t believe, advanced Hillary Clinton\u2019s chances.<\/p>\n

MITCHELL: Republican candidates are pouncing!<\/p>\n

RALSTON: It\u2019s more than, I think, what Bill Clinton said. It\u2019s not just a perception problem. It\u2019s a reality problem.<\/p>\n

KING: “I gotta pay our bills”? I understand they weren\u2019t rich when they left the White House, but “I gotta pay our bills”?<\/p>\n

<\/a>RUSH: Yeah. They\u2019re having big trouble with Clinton. (impression) “Somebody\u2019s gotta pay the bills here.” Anyway, the bloom may be off the rose here. I don\u2019t know. The polling data for Mrs. Clinton continues to plummet. I\u2019m not gonna go out a limb and say that… Well, actually, I just read…? Oh, I can\u2019t remember who said this. Somebody — I think it\u2019s a journalist or some commentator — thinks Hillary\u2019s gonna drop out it\u2019s getting so bad. Now, I gotta remember where I saw that. It was sometime during the program today during the commercial break, and I\u2019m hustling and bustling around. I don\u2019t remember who it was. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: It was Boone Pickens, and I was reading the audio sound bite roster. It\u2019s Boone Pickens that thinks Hillary will drop out of the race. This was yesterday on the Yahoo website, the Yahoo Finance editor in chief Andy Sewer — sorry — Serwer — spoke with T. Boone Pickens about the presidential race, and he said, “You\u2019ve always voted Republican, Boone. You\u2019re not gonna change in 2016?”<\/p>\n

PICKENS: If I was gonna change, who are my choices on the Democrat side? I don\u2019t think Hillary Clinton\u2019s gonna be a candidate. I think she\u2019ll pull out of the deal. She\u2019s got too much to explain, scrubbing the server like she did. She may have been subpoenaed to produce some of that information on her computer, and now she\u2019s scrubbed it off. Her timing may be very bad.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, you have to excuse old Boone for thinking stuff like that matters in 2016. Back in Boone\u2019s day, stuff like this got you in trouble, start scrubbing your server when law enforcement and other regulatory bodies want to see what you\u2019ve done. You\u2019ve been secretary of state, you\u2019re conducting business on a private server, and nobody knows what you\u2019re doing. And then they want to see it, and you scrub it after giving them half the e-mails on it, saying that they do not need to see what else was there \u2019cause there was nothing to it, it was about yoga and Chelsea\u2019s wedding. <\/p>\n

In Boone\u2019s day, you do something like that, and you\u2019re history. Authorities come in, you\u2019re discredited with the public, don\u2019t want any part of it. But in 2016 all you have to do is say: “I did that in order to keep the Republicans from learning some things they would use to harm the country.” If Hillary can say, “Look, I understand it looks bad, but I couldn\u2019t allow the Republicans to see this.” There\u2019s gonna be some people in the low-information voter crowd, the Democrat side, say, “A-ha, that\u2019s acceptable. That\u2019s understandable.” <\/p>\n

Now, I hope Boone\u2019s right. I mean, he ought to be, the way things were in his day ought still be that way. What she\u2019s done here is certainly disqualifying, not to mention all this chicanery going on with their stupid foundation and all these just outsized, irregular donations of hundred million dollars to the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Foundation when she\u2019s secretary of state, and on the come to be president? So, you know, I can relate. I\u2019ve thought she\u2019s never gonna be elected. I\u2019ve told you over the years I don\u2019t think she\u2019s gonna run, and I\u2019ve always been wrong. So we shall see. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
