Ill-suited? Hell no, Rush is exactly what this country needs and he is the MOST "well-suited" to deliver that message. This article from NRO is pathetic. I really think Rush is one of the only people out there with a brass set of Constitutional Balls, and no appetite for appeasement.
“Ill-suited? Hell no, Rush is exactly what this country needs and he is the MOST “well-suited” to deliver that message”.
When a talk radio host that has never held office, has no intention of running for office, no matter how popular he is, and the movement wants him to be the leader, then your movement is in a very bad way. I am not disrespecting the conservative movement. I am not disrespecting Rush. I am critisizing those who would want him to lead the movement. Yes, that means you.

Yes, ill-suited. First, why take the pay cut, in order to waste his VERY valuable time on RINO party administrivia, including compromises with the RINO wing of the party. Second, he makes no claim to the republican party as it exists today, a sentiment that makes perfect sense to me. Rush defines himself as a conservative instead, with “republican” a secondary, useful, but not definitive label. That being true, his best course is to articulate CONSERVATIVE principles and policy proposals, to give the softhearted (and softheaded) republicans a vision to aspire to when they grow up.
