A tipster (known as TechRepublican codebreaker [my title is Site Breaker ;) - KC] Keith Casey) just told me that Rush Limbaugh just endorsed the use of myspace as an effective online strategy. Anyone else hear it and have more details? UPDATE June 2, 10:21 AM: Here's the transcript:

RUSH: TheRichKid.com. I assume on that website they can buy your book?

CALLER: Yes.

RUSH: I assume on that website they can determine what your course is and how they can access it for their kids or kids can find it themselves. Do you have a MySpace page?

CALLER: No, I don't have a MySpace page.

RUSH: Do that! Do that and link to your MySpace page from your TheRichKid.com website.

CALLER: Okay. RUSH: Now, your MySpace page, a lot of kids use these. "Here's everything about me. Please call me." Don't do that! You use your MySpace page as a way of telling people who you are, why you care about this and so forth, just give you a little double hit out there of web action.

CALLER: That's good. I will set that up.

>RUSH: All right. And then, once this hits, and once this takes off, you send me the value of the commercial here. You've gotten... Let's see... You're talking about this for four minutes now. So that's 80 grand you owe me.

Most people probably see/hear this and think nothing of it. Who cares if Rush mentions myspace, right? Wrong. Rush still represents the nucleus of the conservative movement. When he talks, people listen. For example, when I used to work for Congressman Jack Kingston of Georgia, anytime Jack would call in to the show with even a guest host, a simple mention of his website would send 10,000 quality links. The mere fact the Rush knows what myspace is is a step in the right direction for the Republican Party and the conservative movement.
