As much as I’ve respected him, He is NOT going to pick my 2012 candidate.....NO EFFING WAY! Sarah!!!!!!!!

[wilco200]

Weak list. Expert for the Heritage guy and Kraut - I’m not how truly conservative the rest are - as far as influential, their pictures almost put me to sleep

[rightwingintelligentsia]

1. Mitch McConnell
2. John Boehner
3. Jon Kyl
4. Eric Cantor
5. Paul Ryan
6. Edwin Feulner
7. Charles Krauthammer

Boehner and McConnell...the top two spots??...no way..

[Military family member]

Where’s Mike Pence?

[NavyCanDo]

His list includes only those already elected as a representative, and ignores outsiders like Palin, who could draw fifty times the size of crowd as any of these on the list.

[Brett66]

How can he possibly not list Palin?

This list has no credibility without her.

[BGHater]

Lol @ Rove.

[festusbanjo]

When I saw that Mitch the Bitch and Boenhead were the top two I almost clicked out of the list. Ryan and Feulner might be the only actual conservatives listed. Thanks Karl. No wonder GWB lost his way regarding what conservatism is, you were giving him directions!

[Billthedrill]

Any list that doesn’t have Jim Thompson on it needs to be ignored.

[DoughtyOne]

Karl, you’re a fickin joke. And sadly, you were a fricken joke on us.

[Carry_Okie]

Rove can go away.

[Monterrosa-24]

I’m not surprised the sophisto did not pick Palin but he also left out Bolton.

Palin and Bolton should be on everybody’s list.

Define “powerful.” If it’s the MSM sitting up and taking notice, causing Democrats to bark like mad and attempt to refute her every word, you’d have Sarah Palin, with no one else even close.

[afnamvet]

Rove, call George and see if he has a job for you at his new Public Policy Institute at SMU. Oh and buy a copy of Ayn Rand's book: Atlas Shrugged.

[stevie_d_64]

I believe he did this on purpose...There is always a reason...

Palin and Jindal will need some blockers for the next big party...

Thats the only reason I can come up with for the psuedo-snub...Its all part of the game...

Just my opinion...

[meadsjn]

Looks like Karl Rove is throwing himself under the bus.

Most of these guys need to disappear along with their fellow Democrats.

[SueRae]

Most of them I know, the gentleman from the Heritage foundation I did not. Further research needed. Some of these (Krauthammer) are opinion leaders.

Maybe he didn’t include Sarah but he sure as heck didn’t include Mitt or Huck, either.

Complete crap of a post.
