We’ve all heard of Rush Limbaugh, but wasn’t Erick Erickson a psychologist who died about 20 years ago?

Well EE is no Rush Limbaugh, that's for sure - but he's not insignificant either. He just held a big event in Atlanta and every candidate - including Trump - really wanted to speak at that event. That's not something everybody can claim.

Again, my take is that Rush is much bigger than EE, that the truth of Trump is somewhere between what Rush is saying and what EE is saying...and that it will be fun to watch this play out.

“all those in a position of leadership…. cable and talk radio hosts, pundits, columnists, bloggers – (who are) actively encouraging the Trump phenomenon, you are neither a conservative nor a Republican anymore and should not expect anyone to take you seriously again.”

Erickson is a pygmy trying to take on Rush for the attention it will garner for him.

And who the hell is this MacLaughlin guy think he is proclaiming who is and who isn't Republican and conservative. I'm more conservative than E.E. and probably more than the author and I'm PROUD to tell anyone who asks that I'm no longer Republican and will never be again.

Who is Erik? I honestly never heard of him.
