Nobody owes Hunter $100 bucks, it’s his job to persuade them to hand it over.

And it’s not the media’s job to cover everyone who declares themselves a candidate. It’s the candidate’s job to attract enough of a groundswell that the media have to cover him.

Rush’s show is not a public service for conservatives, it’s his livelihood which means ratings.

Now if Hunter, or Thompson, had lost a la Gore in 2000, by the slimmest of margins, you and I might have a right to complain. But they didn’t even come close. That tells me even without all the adversity you mentioned, the final result would not have been different.

Sorry, but you're wrong. Yes, it is the role of the media to report on ALL the candidates, especially if they've already served in a federal elected office or as a governor.

Good grief. Who said anything about owing anybody. Spend your money on a bag a pot for all I care.

It is the CONSERVATIVE MEDIA’S self proclaimed job to spread and promote conservatism. Not RINOism. That is David Brooks and Michael Medved’s job.
