Rush is king of the hill. Savage has peaked. He is loyal to no one. Savage has no sense of right and wrong and is retarded when it comes to politics and economics.
Rush Limbaugh steps into his studio much the same way Clark Kent steps into a phone both. Behind the microphone Rush Limbaugh is Superman. He is credited with saving the AM band. Before Rush BR, “dark” AM radio stations littered the landscape. Rush put those stations back to work.
I imagine that Michael Savage is much the same person off as as he is on the air. He is very well educated and a powerful debater. Savage has a well of life time experience and disciplines to draw from. His confidence and independence is what makes his show interesting to many and unnerving to some — you can sense that Savage is not acting.
No, Savage is in a death spiral now. He is an corrupt MoFo.
