Does he sway anyone with half a brain? Doubtfully.
I politely disagree. SEE: Dittohead

I believe Mr. Rush
does sway those with half-a-brain or less; but doesn't sway those with a full brain.
...the jury is still out with those with three-quarters of a brain.

I live in the suburbs of Indianapolis Indiana.
All my neighbors, at least 80% of my friends and most of the teachers my kids had all the way up through high school are firm believers in what Rush spews.
Most of these people are not halfwits. I never have figured out why they believe it. They think I'm the one being fooled.
I don't wish his death but it would be nice to see his hospital paperwork lost and see him treated like the underinsured.
