Hugh Hewitt said that he wouldn't appear on the same platform with Beck. I think it is because Hewitt is too buttoned down, and Beck, too unpredictable. But Hewitt sometimes is too rigid, calling himself, "Rule of law Conservative", when there is no, "rule of law", on the other side.

Beck and Levin can get to what folks are really thinking even though they don't want to say anything out loud. Somehow Hewitt and Levin are close friends. When I listen to Levin, I chuckle at the times he must make buddy Hewitt cringe, and I chuckle at how the often smug Hewitt must be annoyed at Beck, when Beck with all his rhetorical warts, shows unique insight. And this, from listening to Hewitt goes way over his head.

As to Malkin, her angry shtick is often useful on some issues, but sometimes she goes too far...

On a possibly related note, I had to give up on Rush today as he was telling the story of his early career for the umpteenth time, and the point seemed to be that he doesn’t bother to look back nostalgically on his early career.

Talk radio hosts, ego is thy name. It’s all part of the territory.

All these hosts claim their show is changing world events. According to BOR things happen in the world, or not, based on what he will allow.

As young attorneys they worked together on Reagan's transition team.
