Rush Question

Mitt Romney is a big part of Bain Capital.

Bain Capital owns a lot of Clear Channel

Clear Channel carries Rush on it's stations and does syndication on others.

Does all of the above make Mitt and Rush chained together at the ankles?

Doesn't it seem like Mitt's caught in an ideological bear trap over this Rush slut issue? Shouldn't this connection be a major embarrassment to Mitt?

PLEASE IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF THE ABOVE INFO. I'm too half assed to research it all out and therefore I put my trust in the collective mind of DU.

Romney didn't dare utter a word of criticism against Rush, despite the enormous proof that Romney's popularity with female voters is sinking like a rock.

Had Bain been owned by a Democrat, and an on air host made similar comments against a repub, would they be making it an issue.

A closely linked economic family that has financially supported (or invested) in Romney for ten or twenty or more years has big money in Clear Channel.

Talk about a vast right wing conspiracy!
