To be fair, one must remember that Limbaugh self-identifies as an entertainer, first and foremost. While an artful and articulate spokesperson for orthodox conservatism, he doesn't claim to have the intellectual force of a Bill Buckley or Bob Bennet. That said, he does, IMO, deserve to be on the list, if for nothing else other than his proven ability to motivate Americans to focus on key issues and elections, in his role as a media person.
I have added a person to the list. Although some might find it provocative, I would only argue that he still continues to influence, and steer the public debate in our society as much as he ever did. --<big>[[User:TK|'''ṬK''']]</big><sub>/Admin</sub><sup>[[User_Talk:TK|/Talk]]</sup> 19:20, 30 December 2009 (EST)
