Justin Taylor at the Between Two Worlds blog has captured my own feelings about Hugh Hewitt’s recent extremism:
If you want the extreme pro-Romney take, visit Hugh Hewitt’s blog (where he is saying that any analysts who don’t agree that the speech was “magnificent” are “untrustworthy”). Hewitt goes on to tell those in his audience that beyond their single vote, they don’t “matter” and that it’s the conservative media elite who “matter.” I used to think Hewitt was one of the more insightful commentators. But I’m sorry to say that I think he jumped the shark this week and is quickly shredding any remaining credibility as an analyst of this race–which is sad.
