[Stultis]

Savage is a conservative who is a harsh critic of the Republicans at times and that is why a lot people on FR and in some other conservative circles don't like him.

I don't care whether he supports Bush or criticizes Bush. I don't care whether he's sincere or whether his so-called "conservatism" (I'd call him a demagogic populist myself, but whatever) is an act. I don't like him because he's an idiot. And he's a lazy idiot. He doesn't do his own research, apparently, and won't even read research others have done. He pontificates again and again on subjects without even having the most basic facts to hand. Time and again callers get the better of him, and he's too dumb to even know it.

He's a two shot: He discredits conservatism first because his positions are extreme and/or loopy, and second because he's too dumb and poorly informed to convincingly defend his positions even when he happens to be right.

If he's also a complete phony that only makes him marginally worse IM(notso)HO.

He must be doing something right. he's the third largest show in the country.

And go ahead and insult his millions of listeners, they vote too.
And may i remind you that the GOP is not worried about your vote.
They will get your vote regardless of what they do.
The listeners of Savage nation is what the GOP is going after.
They are the independent conservatives that the GOP will need.
They have already got your vote and they know it.
