Rush Limbaugh may be popular, but is he all that influential? Is he bringing more people to his mode of thinking?

The great thing about these lists is that there are always going to be disagreements about the contents.
Rush was beyond influential actually in the Republican party. In fact many credit Rush et al. for creating a very strong media army to help conservatives and he was courted very heavily in the 90s because of it. Of course that was the 90s and not now.

Lebron is a basketball star. Big whoop. What is he changing or influencing?
