The Oprah's Ratings Tumble Along with Obama's

RUSH: It's a sad thing. Everybody in broadcast worries about this. Everybody -- well, I'm sorry, not everybody. People at CNN and MSNBC do not worry about it because they can't lose ratings. There is nowhere else to go. But most everybody in broadcasting worries about losing ratings. It's not as bad as it used to be. Success used to be you had to earn it. Now you don't. You just have to be a member of the ruling class.

But I tell you, Oprah, for the second time or third time in a month, her ratings have reached an all-time low. And I don't think it's any coincidence that her ratings are tumbling along with Obama's. As Obama goes, so go his supporters. Meanwhile, our ratings are not falling. We are growing by leaps and bounds. (interruption) No, no, no. I did not say to Oprah, "I hope you fail." I've not said that. I said it of Obama, "I hope he fails." I've said it since January 16th of 2009. But Oprah's got a good capitalist enterprise going out there. She's getting out of broadcast TV. She's going to cable now. She knew it was coming. She's a smart businesswoman. She's still got another season to go of this. She's not going to be hurt financially. She'll be supported out of tradition. She's Oprah. But still, as Obama goes, so go his supporters. It's not, I don't think, a coincidence.

I think her viewers might just be getting bored, but then, she’s always had that effect on me.

Lots of white middle-to-upper class housewives were sold voting for Obama by Oprah. With any salesperson, when the product goes bad or doesn't perform as promised, the credibility of the person who sold it to you goes down as well.

The idiotic left has never believed in under selling and then over delivering after the sale. Without a fawning media, Obama would have been forced to resign in disgrace by now.

Who knows for sure? Speaking for myself, I was watching the day she trotted out the Obama Family; saw “the handwriting on the wall” and Vowed at the time to never watch Oprah again. Thus far, I haven’t-—not even once!!!

Her enthusiastic endorsement of the failed Zero administration has called into question her judgment about every other subject...even some of her most devoted fans are starting to figure that out...

Like Rush, I respect Oprah as a smart businesswoman, but she really stepped in it when she became an Obamaton. My wife quit watching her (on the rare occasions she has nothing better to do that view daytime TV) after that.
