Telegraph.co.uk is presenting its second list of the 100 most influential conservatives and 100 most influential liberals in America a year after Barack Obama took the oath on the steps of the Capitol to become the 44th President of the United States.

Frank Luntz?! Oh my goodness...
Yeah, this Toby Harnden has no clue or he is just pushing his own brand of conservative.
And Snowe. And Meg Whitman. WTH? The UK needs some basic lessons in the U.S. definition of conservative.
Although they do have Colin Powel as a most influential liberal - so they got something right.
Ok he got some right, it has to have some in the right place or evem libs will see thru it.
They must be going by the European definition.
When my life is done maybe God will grant me lunch with that great man. I'll bring the cigars.
>> The last man of courage that the UK had to offer. <<
So you mean “man” in the modern sense (i.e., exclusive of women)? Maggie’s ticked.
Still no Jim... He must be higher up.
Nice.
Well, they do list Erickson and Ruddy. Gotta think a Robinson is coming up.
Also, gotta think that Sean Hannity would be on the list. I believe his views are staunchly conservative. However, there is this troubling reality: he keeps getting tripped up by libs who are better informed on the issues than he is. I wish that he would curtail some of his off-camera self-promotion activities (which eat up a LOT of his time) and, instead, devote time to actually reading the books he mentions on his show. As it is, he has staff read them for him and then write up quick synopses that he fits into his programming. Problem is, people who ARE well-read clearly discern that he is NOT a reader and this is greatly handicapping him, though I doubt that he is even aware of it. He would be such a stronger force for the good if he would educate himself. Let’s hope he does. No matter what, though, I like him.
Let’s hope they get the right Jim this time...
