TOP 100 conservatives list. PING.

The list is flawed, about 30-40 of the people arent real conservatives, but worth a gander.

Nice to know that great coonservative leader Andrew Sullivan outranks Santorum, Buckley and Thompson!

Inconsistent is too kind.

The problem with this selection is easily understood.

Dear Telegraph:

By the way, what the hell is Slick Willard doing on the list?

The idiots at the Telegraph have sure hit a new low with this one.

After seeing who they placed on this list, I fully expected to see Montgomery Burns somewhere in the middle!

Absurb - simply absurd!

Anyone know why Haley Barbour didn’t run for the 2008 presidency?

Why not name Rudy the most influential concert pianist or the most influential astronomer or the most influential hockey player?

You got it. It’s interesting how many names out of the Rudy camp made that list.
Methinks his propaganda machine has been working east of the Atlantic.
It reminds me of the international press that fueled Schwarzie’s campaigns.

Come on...the Brits see "conservative" much different than we do...

Here's more info from June 07...

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani is the overwhelming favourite of grassroots British Conservatives to be the next American President. More than three times as many UK Conservative Party members opted for him than chose Senator John McCain.

These are the full results:

* Joe Biden: 0.3%
* Sam Brownback: 0.7%
* Hillary Clinton: 10.1%
* John Edwards: 2.2%
* Newt Gingrich: 4.6%
* Rudy Giuliani: 43.9%
* Al Gore: 5.9%
* John McCain: 14.4%
* Barack Obama: 10.1%
* Bill Richardson: 0.6%
* Mitt Romney: 2.3%
* Fred Thompson: 4.9%


All of the issues that make Giuliani a difficult choice for many Republicans - abortion, gay rights and gun control - are not big issues in British politics. His tough approach to crime, fiscal conservatism and national security credentials give him obvious appeal with British Tories. Many Brits will also see the 'Mayor of 9/11' as the kind of competent communicator that can begin to restore America's standing in Europe. If 'brand Bush' is toxic for many Europeans many see Giuliani as the candidate as well equipped as any Democrat to tackle anti-Americanism.

LOL. This list is an even bigger joke than the liberal list.

Rudy is less conservative than most Democrats. And that's saying something!

Giuliani is the wrong list. He ought to be on the liberal list. And, Romney hardly qualifies as a legitimate conservative either.

But, if these two are going to make, why isn't Arnold Schwarzenegger on the list?
