This is a joke right? - The most influential US conservatives
How much money did the Rudy campaign pay this rag to make him NUMBER 1!??
I won’t be alone in saying this but any poll like this that does not make Rush Limbaugh Number 1 is a joke.
The fact that Rush has been mentioned by name on more occasions (on the floor of the House and Senate no less) than I can count by the top political leaders in this country from Bill Clinton to Harry Reid is evidence enough.
Also if you don’t think there is something really fishy making General Petraeus NUMBER 2 then you’re not paying attention.

Talk radio hostA national phenomenon, Limbaugh’s influence is massive and has endured the test of time. His recent contretemps with Senator Harry Reid was indicative of Limbaugh’s continued power – he raised $2.1 million for military and police families by selling on eBay a letter from the Democrats attacking him. As far back as 1996 he won the ultimate conservative accolade by having Al Franken, a left-wing comedian, pen a volume about him entitled: Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot.
For three hours each day, Limbaugh ranges from waxing philosophical to sounding off about political issues of the day. His theatrical style belies an erudition and painstaking research that his detractors often underestimate. His show began in 1988 and still tops the listenership lists. Often accused of going OTT, he courts controversy and relishes a battle. Any conservative Republican would chew off his own arm to appear on the Limbaugh show.
