Name the missing pundits! 
Modified By daveto  on 5/2/2008 5:33:55 AM)

 

 

The Telegraph's 50 most influential U.S. political pundits .. well they've done 30 so far, with the last two groups of 10 coming (presumably) tomorrow and Friday. (My bad if it's already out there some where.)

 

I think if everybody gives a top 5 we should be able to fill in the gaps. Just off the top of my head: Matt Drudge (but he's not a pundit!), Jon Stewart, Whacky Bill O'Reilly, Frank Rich, ohh, let's say Jack Cafferty for fun.

Re: Name the missing pundits! 

Not so much a personal top 5, but my guesses...

Tim Russert, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, David Brooks, George Will
