From the September 8 edition of Premiere Radio Networks' The Sean Hannity Show:

SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Everybody's going to think the only reason Hannity likes Assange now is because he's going to make this document dump on Hillary. Which, by the way, I'm not going to lie, sure, absolutely. 

[...]

I'm sure that if it was against George Bush, that Democrats would love the guy. But it's not, it's against Hillary, and I think they're scared to death. I am told within Democratic ranks, they are literally in their pants over this whole Julian Assange issue. They're scared to death. Yeah, it's happening in their pants. They're blanking their pants. Pooping their pants.
