Ah, I see what you are saying now. Thanks. Hate to say but that is true. Most of the AM radio types are not leaders. Some are “thinkers” and do talk about issues in a way that brings things to the public, but their goal is not to lead, to help or to serve. We are deluding ourselves if we expect that.

I’m hoping Mark Levin will be the exception to this. Even if he’s only a political philosopher, he is quite a brilliant one, and maybe his ideas will inspire some servant-leaders with some ideas for action to move forward and set goals and rally the people who WANT to work toward saving this country.

It is my contention that Right Wing Talk Radio has a net negative effect on the "conservative" movement.

(1) These fellows preach to an already convinced choir.
(2) They are Obama-centric. That is they tell the audience over and over how bad things are under Obama, how bad Obama is, how bad the government is, how bad the complaisant Republicans are, how stupid the lo-info voter is.
(3) In short a message of despair; pure negativity. Not one of the VRWC Yakkers that I know of bothered to ask Romney what his Program or Plan was. (Not that Romney was a candidate one might wish for, but then again, this is a Two-Party system, and he would have been a lot better than what we got, IMO.)
(4) One result? 4 million Republican voters fail to show up at the polls. All the VRWC Yakkers on the air, and they couldn't get more people, including their fans, off the couch and into the booth?
(5) Several other posters are telling me that Levin is going to come forward to propose an actual Program, a Plan for getting the country back on track.
(6) That would be great, especially if he will spearhead a drive for states' rights against the tide of increasing federalism.

We are in for a period of upheaval. The two-party system has turned into a 1 1/2 party federal kleptocracy, and there is nothing of a concrete nature on the horizon to replace it.
