Where are the Talk Radio Voices for Conservative Candidates?
I realize it didn’t render that way but the original post was not mine. However, in NJ, even during the primary, talk show hosts who tout themselves as conservatives would not even give Lonegan a hearing. The nature of the primary, and Lonegan’s support merited equal time in the primary season – however, the only national host who interviewed Lonegan during the primary season was Bill Bennett (who also interviewed the other Republican primary candidate). After the primary, a lot of conservatives went for the RINO because a third party candidate threatened to siphon off just enough votes to throw it to Corzine if they (the conservatives) did not fall into line. A vote is a vote, but a lot of the Republican votes were of the hold-your-nose variety.
