Be ready for anything. It's all on the line for the Establishment in this election-and they'll do anything to influence the outcome. It's a very, very special thing to be in the Establishment, you derive virtually 100% of your self worth from it-Rush Limbaugh, Fri., Oct. 28, 2016

"All bets are off in terms of what those people would do to hold onto what they've got....It's a massive, massive undertaking to wrest control from the establishment, from the elites...and that happening is closer to reality than anybody ever dreamed it would be."

10/28/16, "It's All on the Line for the Establishment in This Election -- And They'll Do Anything to Influence the Outcome," Rush Limbaugh

"RUSH: Folks, I want you to be very, very aware of something. I wouldn't put anything past anybody on the left in this election. I'm here to tell you, as much as we have talked about it, I don't think we've gotten close to describing and nailing the sheer panic that exists on the left at the thought of losing this....

If you were about to lose everything, if you knew that you were going to lose everything in a week to 10 days, what would you be thinking, what would you be doing, how would that affect you? That's what we're talking about here.  

Being in the establishment, being in the political power structure is everything. People in that club or in that group of people, it is how they derive practically 100 percent of their self-worth. It is how they derive their standard of living, their lifestyle. It is how they secure the future for their kids. This network of wires and conventions and connections, networking and so forth, is how they live.  

It's how they insulate themselves from the everyday forces of life that people not in that club don't have as much ability to insulate themselves. And it's a very, very special thing to be in the establishment. Oftentimes you get in there by birth, you get in by family name, you get in by resume, you get in by where you went to school. A lot of it is legacy.  You're in it because your parents or your family was in it. 

It's very rare for outsiders to come in and crash it and stay there. It happens. But it's very rare. If you're on the verge of losing everything -- and whether it's everything for real or not, but in your mind, losing this election means you lose everything....And for people on our side, it's the country....And this election, to many people, represents a closing down of those opportunities because of a dramatic transformation of the country. 

People inside the establishment don't depend on the country, they don't depend on the principles of the founding per se.  They depend on the connections being in the club gives them....

The United States of America, with its focus on individual freedom and liberty, merit-based achievement, all of that, that has been what has made the United States exceptional and different from practically all other nations in human history on earth. And if we are to lose that status by virtue of losing an election because the people who will win want to close off those opportunities, want to basically say that America as founded is corrupt, America as founded is unfair, America needs to be transformed -- and you know the drill...
 
So people on our side have the same attitude about this election that people in the establishment do; but the people in the establishment have much more power, individually and within their group. They run everything. And the prospect of losing it, I cannot describe to you the kind of fear and panic it causes.  And that's why I think all bets are off in terms of what those people would do to hold onto what they've got. It's human nature. 

And I just want to reemphasize this, because there's still a lot of time, and there's a lot of tricks that can still be pulled. What happens, let's say here's the Washington Post tracking poll, Hillary's lost eight points in four days, and they're all out there making a big deal of it. I could cite you a lot of other polls where a similar downward trajectory by Mrs. Clinton is taking place. What happens if the polls on Monday or Tuesday next week show her regaining it all, how are you gonna feel? You're gonna say, "Aw, no, oh, no."

You're gonna be one measure of angry, another measure of depressed. And I just want to take the occasion of the program here today again to once again tell you, nobody knows. It isn't over. There are too many factors in this election that do not have enough precedents for there to be accurate projections, predictions, calculations. That's primarily because of the presence of Trump....

So let's deal with what we have today. If the polls change dramatically and the other way next week, we'll deal with that if that happens. Not gonna predict it; I just want to warn you that they will do anything. "They" -- meaning the Democrats and Republicans, the Washington-New York-Boston power corridor -- are not going to just sit by and let this happen. They're going to do everything they can to influence the outcome. They have the power to do so.  That's one of the perks of being in the establishment. You run the American political system. You run the government.

It's a massive, massive undertaking to wrest control from the establishment, from the elites, from the ruling class -- and that happening is closer to reality than anybody ever dreamed it would be. Hence all the panic out there, particularly on the Hillary side things."....

Comment: Rush Limbaugh himself is a member of the Establishment. He could've taken down the Establishment a long time ago if he wanted to, but obviously has chosen not to do so. He likes his life the way it is. For people like me, he's an occasional Aspirin to ease the pain. He's uniquely able to consume massive amounts of information, see the important points, and converse about them every day.
