Rush Limbaugh appeared on The Today show on Monday, October 12. He was asked about everything including:

* Is Rush the leader of the Republican Party?

Rush said: RUSH: I am not the leader of the Republican Party. I don't want to be the leader of the Republican Party. These people think that they can discredit the Republican Party by making me the head of it. All they're doing is elevating me. It's silly for them to keep talking about how I'm the leader of anything. It's just creating more curiosity about me. It's twenty-one years, more popular than ever. Lord, thank you for my enemies."

* "I want him to fail" - saying he wants Barack Obama to fail, along with his explanation of what that means. Rush said:

"Trust me, Jamie. Every one of these "critics" knew and knows exactly what I meant. They are taking this as yet another opportunity to say, Whoa! Limbaugh wants America to fail!" and that's such BS. I want this country to succeed, and it won't happen if he succeeds with his agenda. So perhaps a more politically correct way to say this: "I want health care under Obama to fail. I don't want Obama owning automobile companies. I don't want him running Wall Street and setting compensation levels."


* Is Rush controversial?

"The idea that we've had a very historic thing was wonderful when it happened, absolutely. But I'll be honest with you. I predicted to you it was going to exacerbate racial problems, and it has. Any criticism of President Obama is going to be said to be oriented in racism. And if you don't like his health care bill, it's racist. I opposed when Clinton and Hillary were trying to do it, and they aren't black. It's all about ideas. I think these are dark days for the country. I think his economic policies are... I think he is shepherding the decline; he's not observing it."


Rush also discusses John McCain, and how he was the dream candidate for moderate Republicans that want ot reach across the aisle.
