Along with Kansas, Oklahoma, Virginia, South Carolina, Ohio, Indiana, and others, ALEC based legislation, There is a huge horrendous movement underway, intent on fucking women (but without those pesky orgasms or evil satanic birth control devices) and effectively turning them into cows and sheep.

Rush's crap was merely a focusing point, which spread a hell of a lot of light out in a very short time. So, what has happened as recently as yesterday?

Two groups promise to stay with Rush. (Lifelock being the largest). More than 60 others said no, including the American Heart Association (which gets its time for free!) Every single advertising buyer is now wary of Talk Radio, and they are pulling or being forced to pull Ads from Hannity, Beck, Rush, and other nitwits and halfwits.

That is a huge seachange and will drive some radio stations out of that market. (It will also prove that TYT was correct, and that Rush's actual numbers are only slightly larder . . . larGER than his supersized ego.

One other massive change occurred. As early as last summer, women were generally split between Ds and Rs. BEcause of all this crap, they now favor the Dems by 15 points. That is a massive electoral hole that will be impossible to climb out of.
