Rush paved the way. Before him, it was like crossing the American frontier on horseback and fighting savages, wild animals, pestilence and severe weather along the way. After Rush - it was like a 4 lane highway for Conservative talk radio. Rush made sense to the average American worker. He spoke about the practical impact of leftist politics and explained the fundamental reasons leftism doesn't work. I remember one of Rush's shows where he called out Bill Clinton for saying that African Americans watch the same television as normal Americans,as if African Americans weren't normal. Rush picked up on the little details and the big picture. He was a visionary who hadn't lost his grounding in reality. I am thankful to have been able to listen to his shows for so long.
