Your favorite news source, Right Wing News, conducted a survey of hundreds of conservative bloggers to determine which Republicans they like and which they don't. The qualification of "must be alive or mostly alive" eliminates the obvious favorites and leads to some funny names in the top ten. Sarah Palin got the most "favorite" votes. Call me naive but I'm still shocked they just don't care that she 1) knows nothing and 2) is unable to hide the fact she knows nothing.

# R Bloggers 10 Least Favorite R Bloggers 10 Favorites
1 John McCain Sarah Palin
2 Ted Stevens Rush Limbaugh
3 Peggy Noonan Bobby Jindal
4 Colin Powell Fred Thompson
5 Arlen Specter Newt Gingrich
6 Chuck Hagel Mark Steyn
7 Ron Paul Michelle Malkin
8 Pat Buchanan Michael Steele
9 Mike Huckabee Thomas Sowell
10 Arnold Schwarzenegger Ann Coulter

Okay, kudos for putting Ted Stevens near the top of "least favorite," but you know he's only there because he got convicted. If he had been acquitted he'd be near the top of the other list.

To be fair, their dislike of moderates is paralleled by the netroots dislike of centrists. But where's George Bush on least favorites? Just how much more damage would he have to do to the country before they said "We don't like that guy!"? Which names (or absentees) surprise you?
