RUSH: There's something strange here, folks, with this Biden speech. I'm not trying to generate a bunch of conspiracy thinking here. It's just it's a speech given by somebody that's going to run. There's part of me that thinks that he was going to and whatever, whoever said, "No, Joe, you're not. You can give the speech. It'll probably be your last big speech, Joe. I mean, you are the veep, after all. Go ahead. Use the Rose Garden. Make your points. But you're not running." Remember who we're dealing with here.
I mean, even Mark Knoller, the White House correspondent for CBS -- and they all are. They're all tweeting things such as, "Biden's speech could easily have been used for launching a presidential campaign."
Believe me, it was that type of speech. Except he said he's not. There is more to this than meets the eye. Not that it matters to anything other than: Was this the dark forces of Hillary Clinton working their way into the Obama White House and saying, "He better not run. If he runs," you fill in the blank? We may never know.
In the meantime, back to the phones. I really appreciate all of you on hold waiting. Marty in Bowling Green, Kentucky. It's great to have you here. Hello, sir.
CALLER: Thank you, Rush. And dittos from a small conservative town right outside Bowling Green, Kentucky. I do want to fill in the blanks and I'd like to get your thoughts on this. There's a reason Biden couldn't run. It's because had he run, he would have been the only candidate running against Hillary with the insider information to know what happened with Benghazi, and who knows how many other scandals. But, you know, he would have the inside information -- the cold, hard facts -- to not only take her down but, I believe, Obama could not risk that happening for his future job prospects or, you know, possibly something that would even still lead to his impeachment, because you think about when Benghazi occurred leading up to his last election, I'm convinced that there's definitely a cover-up that would involve both Hillary and Obama.
RUSH: Well, you know, a lot of people are speculating that this drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip has been orchestrated by Obama, and its purpose has been to warn Hillary and -- maybe even, in a hands-off, indirect way -- damage her ability. But even her polling numbers don't matter. But she's it. She's gonna be the nominee no matter if Biden got in or not. And many people have suspected that this e-mail server -- or they've theorized, this e-mail server -- she may not be the only one who did this.
There may be others in the Regime, including Obama, who had their own private things and nobody wants that to be known. So your basic premise is one shared by a lot of people, that she's got the goods. The Clintons collect the goods on everybody. Remember the 900 FBI files? They've always got insurance policies. There are no coincidences out there. So we'll never know. But let's not make too much of this, because even if Biden had decided to run be with he wasn't gonna get the nomination. She's just it now. There's nobody.
Bernie Sanders isn't gonna get it. I don't have any evidence for this. Just my instincts. That's the caller's point, is Biden not running means she's not gonna be indicted. If she were indicted, Biden would run, because Bernie's not gonna get the nomination, and what's his name, Webb dropped out, and Linc Chafee? Don't make me laugh. And who else was up there? O'Malley. If Biden had decided to go, that would have signaled that maybe something was coming down with Hillary. But now that Biden's not going.
Do you think...? Let me put it to you this way. Knowing what you know about Obama, and think what you know about the Democrat Party, do they want to sabotage their presidential campaign in 2016? Regardless who the nominee is. Do you think Obama wants the Republicans to win? No. Even if he doesn't want Hillary to be elected, I don't think that means that he's ambivalent about the Republicans winning it.
So I think we just have to be mature and responsible about this and understand that whatever subterfuge there is here, is no more or no less than what always exists in politics and that Hillary Clinton's gonna be the nominee. She always has been going to be the nominee. And the evidence for that is, there isn't anybody else viable, and there hasn't been in this entire cycle. The closest that she has to a legitimate opponent is Bernie Sanders. And that's not happening. I know people think that that's crazy 'cause they look at the crowds he's drawing and they look at the polling data, which is conflicting.
I mean, some days he's way up and her numbers are down, and other days she's up and he's flat and she's up. But it just not gonna be Bernie Sanders. It just isn't. And the Democrat Party has its own rifts. That story that we had yesterday, that we shared with you yesterday about the Matthew Yglesias from Vox who finally wrote a piece about the problems Democrats have down ballot, how many seats they have lost in the last two midterm elections. In the House, governorships, state legislatures and all that.
I mean, it's serious. It's really serious. And the Democrat Party, while it's not the party of JFK anymore... The Democrat Party is not the Democrat Party of your parents or your grandparents. It's a radical leftist party. Still, there are really, really radical leftists -- communists -- in this, and there are radical leftists who are not communists in this party. So it's not monolithic. It's not that the whole Democrat Party equals Bernie Sanders and his brand of socialism. A lot of them. But... Well, I don't know. If Bernie does get the nomination will I eat my hat? I don't know. I think it's something I'm gonna have to deal with. I appreciate the call.
John you're next in Effingham, Illinois. Great to have you, sir. Welcome to the EIB Network.
CALLER: Hi, Rush. Quick question. I'm wondering if Donald Trump gets the White House, will he even make it to inauguration before the RINOs and the Democrats are calling for impeachment?
RUSH: How does that work? How do you impeach a nominee?
CALLER: Well, before they're even talking about it. It's very obvious they don't want him in the White House.
RUSH: Well, yeah, but there's nothing they can do.
CALLER: No, I'm saying if -- if -- he does win the White House.
RUSH: Right. Oh, if he wins the White House? Not if he wins the nomination, if he wins the White House, will the Republicans impeach him?
CALLER: Will the RINOs and the Democrats.
RUSH: Well, I'd have to think about that. It hadn't even crossed my mind. I mean, we're talking high crimes and misdemeanors take some time to commit those. You can't impeach somebody after their inaugural speech as a high crime or misdemeanor, so, no. I think there would be suicides before that. The establishment would be beside itself, I mean, both parties, no question about it. Speaking of, back to Hillary for just a second. Another reason, folks, why it's not going to Bernie Sanders.
Look at all the people, look at all of the foreign governments, look at the nameless corporations -- big money people and institutions -- that have donated money to that Clinton Crime Family Foundation. There's only one reason all that money's been collected, and that is for future consideration when she becomes president. That money is powerful. That money speaks. Hillary Clinton is not going to give that money back, and neither is Bill Clinton, meaning if they lose. She's going to be the nominee. That's one of the reasons why they have given so much money, even though it is on the come.
These fat cats have put way too much money into the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton apparatus and the Clinton campaign. They are not going to give any big money -- Bernie Sanders can only dream of getting that kind of money. It isn't gonna happen. The fat cats are looking at this as though they have rented Hillary or purchased Hillary, and they're not gonna let that money go to waste. There's more with that came from. And if it begins to look close, some of that money is gonna be aligned against Bernie, if it looks like he might actually pull this off. They've simply got too much invested in her being the nominee and eventually being elected president to just let it slide.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Matthew in Omaha, you're next, and welcome to the program, sir.
CALLER: Mega dittos from Omaha, Nebraska, Maha Rushie.
RUSH: Thank you, sir, very much.
CALLER: As much as it pains me to say so, I think that the Biden speech was actually a politically brilliant move because, thinking like part of the Democratic base, they accomplished a lot of things in that speech. Number one, they showed Obama and Biden together. So if Biden would run in the future, he is socially presented to the public very recently with Obama. They also let him enumerate all these points, all the things that he feels the nation needs and that he can do, and that basically allows a big set of disingenuous polls to be undertaken, and everybody know that --
RUSH: Why do that? Wait a minute. You're setting up a set of circumstances here. You're saying Biden announces he's not running to set up a run later on. He's gonna run if Hillary gets indicted or if they can confiscate the polling units and come up --
CALLER: Exactly.
RUSH: -- with a bunch of polls that show Hillary bottoming out?
CALLER: Exactly. If something absolutely colossal that's unforeseen happens, then he's set up to run. In another way, since he has given the personal storyline of his family and talked about, you know, how they've been under the weather and they've grieved and so on, immediately if he says, "I'm gonna take one for the team, I'm gonna step up in the face of this, and I'm going to get in there and I'm gonna lead this nation," he's already set up to gain the sympathy of the base and maybe even the nation, because he is willing to sacrifice personally.
RUSH: But all of this depends on Hillary Clinton being either indicted or somebody getting hold of all the polls and concocting a bunch of fake ones showing all of her support leaving her.
CALLER: Well, it's not that the polls would necessarily show that. It may be that she's indicted, and the polls that they concoct are in order to create or further a groundswell for Biden because --
RUSH: But why do all this? Why not just run and indict her anyway?
CALLER: Because they really do want Hillary, just like you've said. So much is invested in her, but this is a backup. Because I think that that party is so willing to use people for their own ends, they're such a juggernaut that they're willing to take him right to the edge of the cliff with all the setup, all the effort that it takes, even though he may not run. However, they want to be prepared with the hero, the sympathetic guy who's stepping up. And if you remember, his debate with Paul Ryan, he can really put a beating on somebody. I was really surprised at that debate. I thought, well --
RUSH: What do you mean you were surprised? Have you not seen the guy take out Clarence Thomas and Robert Bork and lead the way? The guy's a mean, vicious SOB. That's the great contradiction here. He's not the old Joe that everybody loves. This guy's one of the most partisan guys in Washington. A speech like this today is a giant camouflage, it's a mask. Now, I will agree with you on one thing. This was the kind of speech that leaves the door open. He gives a speech that anybody running would give, except he says he's not. Now, all these other things are real long shots, Hillary being indicted. Does anybody really think that's gonna happen? That's another thing, I have never thought Biden was gonna go, and I have never believed Hillary was gonna be indicted. The Democrats run the Justice Department, for crying out loud.
You think Hillary Clinton doesn't have the goods on somebody to fire back if she gets indicted? Why do you think Bill Clinton wants to play golf with Barack Obama? You think they're out there actually playing golf? You ever heard of Robert Torricelli, Andrew Cuomo? Bill Clinton told both of those guys to get out of politics. And they did for a while. Cuomo came back. I guarantee you Bill Clinton is out on the golf course with Obama, and he said (Clinton impression), "Now, look, Barack, you may think this, you may think that, but I'm just telling you, if something happens to her, if something doesn't go right here, I just want you to know I got this and I got that."
These people, the Clintons are not without ammo, ever. If she gets indicted, it is going to be -- I mean, I'd love to see it, don't misunderstand, folks, I would love to see it just because of the internecine war that would erupt in the Democrat Party over it. But, anyway, look at what the Democrat Party and the way it operates, look at the kind of things it inspires people to think. There goes old Joe out there. Great, touching, heartwarming, oh, my God, tug at the heartstrings speech. And he did say, by the way, that one of the major reasons is the lack of time. Okay?
So he goes out, makes a speech, but what he really did was lay the groundwork for his eventual campaign that is the result of a draft. People begging him to run, after he said no. Something very sad and unfortunate happens to Hillary, oh, no, nobody wants that, but maybe it happens, gets indicted, and this is the way people start thinking. And then we'll get hold of the polling units at ABC, CBS, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and we'll create a bunch of polls showing Hillary's in trouble. And people, "Wait a minute. Biden! Biden! Did you hear that speech? Remember that speech? Biden." And then he is practically begged to change his mind. This is the kind of thinking the Democrat Party and their insincerity and their lack of genuineness inspires people to concoct.
If the ethereal “They” decide to go against this country...
Then I am against them...
Period, to the end
Could it be that Biden is bowing out because he knows any Dem that gets the frontrunner status will be taken down by the Donald?
Another explanation for not changing the speech could be even more last moment. Maybe someone came up behind him with a gun, and Obama said, “OK, Joe, go ahead. But keep in mind, you are here to decline. Or else.”
This was all done to “keep biden warm in people’s minds” in case shrillary crashes off a cliff, and if Bernie has also self Destructs before Hillary goes down, then their will be a “Draft Joe” movement.
Hillay called this morning and reminded Biden that she still has his FBI file.
My theory: For whatever reason, Obama did not want to throw his support (and apparatus) behind Biden. Perhaps it is because the price Obama was asking was too high, even for Joe.
Or maybe the whole thing was just an exercise to wring concessions out of Hillary?
I don't think Hillary will face any serious consequences on Benghazi. 0bama will cover for her, even if he hates her, because he's involved up to his eyeballs just like she is, and if she goes down, he goes down. Besides, the so-called GOP "Leadership" acts like they just want to bury it and make it go away. Make no mistake, we are no longer a government of laws, only no one told Trey Gowdy.
BTW - Biden isn't running because the Clinton Crime Syndicate made him an offer he couldn't refuse, but like the "disaster" QB on a football team, he would be more than willing to step in, should things not go the way Madam Benghazi has dictated.
I just assumed he didn’t want Hilary to start leaking his FBI files. And he didn’t want to get Vince Fosterized.
Clintons have some dirt on ole Joe and Barry they have held back on.
That has to be it!
He didn’t speak to Obama during the speech and turned his back on him when he offered his hand to shake.
Biden got a 3:00am phone call from Vince Foster...
There is some smoke here Grace....
I agree Biden is the “parachute” candidate when Hillary has a “Medical Emergency”publicly and the democrats are thrown into a storm of confusion...
I see it coming, and no longer than early spring...
Watch and See...
PS - Rules for nomination will be mutilated to justify the replacement, Unprecedented it will be called...
But they will not stop that easily...
You know.... we’re better off running against Hitlery than we are Biden. We have to leave open the idea that maybe a republican, or maybe Trump got to Biden some way and “persuaded” him to not run.
I think you are close. A Biden run at this point makes it look like Obiw is cutting the legs out from under Hillary. The Dems need plausible deniability when the FBI recommends charges against Hilldabeast saying that the FBI was acting independently from the White House.
And so, we have the single most corrupt politician in America sliding on greased skids toward the highest office in the land and to hell with the voters, because the Dems will never lose the tribals and don't need much else.
Sure, I guess on the off-chance Hillary was indicted, the Dems needed an alternative, but that really wasn't likely to happen either.
He knew without the support of the House Freedom Caucus... wait a minute...
Watch fauxahontas. She’s the proxy.
