Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity have both been very good for the Republican party. They manufacture outrages all year long in order to get blue-collar people to vote against their own interests.
Limbaugh and Hannity will always be successful because it is people's worst instinct to fear others. Blacks, who supposedly commit all the crimes. Latinos, who supposedly all came here illegally. Gays, who supposedly mock God and Muslims who are supposedly all terrorists.
The fact that Republicans are allowing corporations to ship jobs overseas and destroy entire communities in the "red" states are of no importance to the fans of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity. Only that the Republicans make promises to ban things and fight people who are scary to them.
