Daily Telegraph lists the most influential Political Pundits, mostly conservatives.

The Daily Telegraph in the UK has listed the 50 most influential political pundits in the US. Crooks and Liars looks at the list with some degree of dismay. Nicole Belle who wrote the post probably didn't know that the Daily Telegraph is the UK equivalent of the Washington Times in political stance.

The full list runs like this, with political viewpoint added...

45 - Fred Barnes (Con)
44 - Jeffrey Toobin (Ind)
43 - Paul Begala (Lib)
42 - Bill Bennett (Con)
41 - Mark Shields (Lib)
40 - Tony Snow (Con)

38 - Michael Barone (Con)
37 - Eugene Robinson (Lib)

16 - Glenn Beck (Con)
15 - Bill Maher (Lib)
14 - Chuck Todd (Ind)
13 - Keith Olbermann (Lib)
12 - Bill O'Reilly (Con)
11 - Stephen Colbert (Lib - portrays a conservative)
10 - Mark Halperin (Ind)
09 - David Brooks (Con)
08 - Jon Stewart (Lib)
07 - Tim Russert (Ind)

05 - John Harris & Jim Vandehei (Ind)
04 - Rush Limbaugh (Con)
03 - Sean Hannitty (Con)
02 - Chris Matthews (Lib)
01 - Karl Rove (Con)

Can't say I agree with this list. Rove could hardly be described as influential, he's only been a pundit for a few months. Both Olbermann and O'Reilly should rate higher, but that's just my opinion.
