Has Greta gotten her head straight, and left the dark side? When she first started on national CATV, I think CNN, she was the most rabid defender of Bill Clinton during his impeachment proceedings on the cable. It seems that lately, she might actually be showing signs of redemption. Or am I seeing things?

Thank you very much IowaHawk. I tuned in only to see the first few minutes preempted on the replay, due to the Idaho mine issue. Sad...

At any rate, I wanted to DVD this one, and you just provided a great copy. Excellent.

Folks can say what they want, but thank God we have a guy like Rush out there.

During this interview he laid out the mortgage crisis better than I’ve seen anyone else do it. He bagged Frank, Pelosi, Clinton, Cater... just an excellent detailed summation.

Folks, some of you think our side was complicit too, and I do agree with that. It was still the brain-child of the Left, and it’s important it is tied around their necks.

We can’t help it if some of our players act the part of Leftists, but it is not Conservatism’s goal to implement things like this. It is the Left’s goal.

Who would be out there delivering this message, if not Rush.

Just excellent.

I suspect that she has seen that the ratings are on the right.

I don’t watch her all the time, but I’d term it like I’ve seen others do it.

She grants a reasonable interview and lets the guest say what they want to say. I don’t think she agrees with them, but she isn’t abusively confrontational.

Tonight’s interview was quite good. She’d ask a question and let Rush run with it.

I do not think she’s particularly in sync with Conservatism by any means. Others may see it differently.

You got that right D1. Rush was on fire for sure. He nailed it. Rush was able to sum up what needs to be said about BO-The-ZerO and why he is so beatable in very crisp sound bites. In less that 40 minutes he laid out a complete road map to defeating BO-The-ZerO. Republican presidential candidates need to be taking notes is they want to win.

You know, If Rush suddenly decided to run for President this week, the rest of the GOP field would just pack up and go home. Hell Odumbi would pack up and go home.

just sayin....

Thanks Captain Beyond. Your comments about him laying out a road-map were good too. Right on target.

He also covered the RNC’s mindset to ignore and avoid Conservatives. He said the RNC doesn’t want to listen to us, and frankly won’t, but they do want our votes.

He explained the old 40/40/20 rule in a clear concise way.

Then he trashed the Republican party’s practice of not wooing the base, but cutting to the chase to bring in the independent vote. At times Rush is in the bag for the RNC, I have to acknowledge that, but in this interview he just blistered the RNC. Excellent!

Thanks for the response.

Thanks for the links.
I caught most, if not all of the interview, but I had an interruption. It seems like it may have been run twice
on my Satellite
He was classic Rush....No stumbling or couching of his remarks.

Republican presidential candidates need to be taking notes if they want to win.

I think Conservatives should be taking notes also, since he made the point that we need to support whoever the candidate is. Our primary mission should be to remove the Marxist from office.

I disagree with him on one thing though, I wouldn't exclude Ron Paul from the list of candidates that can beat Obama. I think Ron Paul has some uniquely interesting dynamics that would capture a significant portion of the independents. That's not an endorsement, that's just an observation. Of course, that's with the understanding that as a formula, the base would support whatever candidate.

“Let Rush run with it”, I guess. This was the radio program taken to the TV with Greta playing the role of the caller, sans stating much in the way of her own opinion. The format was made for Rush. On one hand, I appreciate the lack of interruption and allowing the interview subject to make a point with a complete thought. Alternatively, well-crafted questions that challenge the subject to provide insights that would have been missed or glossed over are where real interview masters have value. It is a rare skill.

There hasn’t been any enthusiasm on the conservative side since Palin said, “No.”

I haven’t been enthusiastic about the Republican candidate since...I don’t know when!
