GOP candidates & talk show hosts? Vanity (my first in years - sorry it's not an opus)

I just realized that I don't even know who Rush is supporting - I don't listen to radio or TV news - which made me wonder:

Who are the most influential non-mainstream media figures supporting?

So who is (are?) Rush's pick(s)?

Beck's?

Hannity's?

Savage's?

Levin's?

Whoever else that should be on the list?

I think both Beck and Levin are likely Cruz supporters, although neither has said so. But they generally have nothing but praise for Cruz.

[HotHunt]

Rush claims not to take sides publicly. He doesn’t endorse candidates.

[a fool in paradise]

I see Rush’s staying out of primaries same way as his hesitance to give other praise sometimes.

He’s said that if he supports something/someone (it can be a journalist or a sponsor), THEY become a target for just that reason.

I don’t think that Rush is a fan of the GOPe. Whether it is “Rockefeller Republicans” (the type who opposed Goldwater and Reagan or later opposed and still oppose Ted Cruz in favor of moderates who bow to the Democrats to ‘get along’.

[MNJohnnie]

Pretty hard to debate that. Not just every candidate Rush calls a “Thoroughbred Conservative” like he said about Cruz

“I think both Beck and Levin are likely Cruz supporters, although neither has said so.”

As a regular listener I know that Glenn Beck clearly has stated that Ted Cruz is his #1 choice! Has said it repeatedly.

[TBP]

Yet the Trumpkins here insist that Beck is for Rubio (and therefore not a conservative.)

“Yet the Trumpkins here insist that Beck is for Rubio (and therefore not a conservative.)”

Clearly the Trumpkins and others don’t listen to his show,
they make assumptions. Beck is VERY conservative- true to the Constitution!!
Trump’s past political leanings, donations, etc make me a CRUZ supporter all the way! That being said, I am glad that
Trump is speaking up against political correctness and that he is pointing out how this country is going in the wrong direction. I am grateful to Trump that because he speaks up- the message is seeping out. However, Ted Cruz doesn’t
change his principles - he is a steadfast Constitutional Conservative.

If it’s Hillary vs Donald....Go Donald. I really really really really would love to see Hillary have to debate Ted Cruz. I’d actually watch the whole debate for once.

I hope Ted has a great debate tonight!
