(though I have to admit you have a point here) -- I don't really know who is audience is, other than the poor types I meet here (in the south) and those I recall from other place's I've lived-- but they were all poor religious people. Maybe I have it all wrong, but I pictured his base as that McCain rally woman!!! remember from SNL? "he's an arab!!!" that woman? the woman in red.

I don't know too many of the Republican base who are wealthy, except for those running it and the big corporate types. I always figured that they used Rush to push their product (the GOP) on the poor idiots who continue to vote against their own economic interest due to phony culture war issues.

I never imagined the neocons listening to him -- but, this is wrong on my part. They must. Rush uses his personality to sell and shill for his buddies (the neo cons) all of the time.

I will say that Hotwire and Overstock were two of my favorite places. I used Hotwire for all of my business travel! Hotels, air, etc. It's a real loss to me.
