Powerful Conservatives.



No. 1: Mitch McConnell

U.S. Senator, Republican, Kentucky

The GOP will be judged this year by what it opposes in Congress and how it does so. As the GOP's Senate leader, McConnell uses Senate rules to shine a bright light on Democratic initiatives and stoke public opposition.


No. 2: John Boehner

U.S. Representative, Republican, Ohio

The House GOP leader has a much more limited ability to influence floor action given House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's iron reign, but ironically, Boehner's power increases next year when the GOP's electoral hopes hinge on the message Republican congressional candidates send. Voters will hear the Republican side from several hundred House candidates whose positions Boehner can help shape.


No. 3: Jon Kyl

U.S. Senator, Republican, Arizona

Kyl, the Senate minority whip, is one of the Senate's most thoughtful, trusted figures. He provides intellectual heft and steadiness to the GOP's congressional efforts.



No. 4: Eric Cantor

U.S. Representative, Republican, Virginia

As the House minority whip, Eric Cantor is smart, tough and an excellent advocate. While of a different generation and background than Republican House leader John Boehner, Cantor has worked effectively with him as part of a united GOP leadership in the House.



No. 5: Paul Ryan

U.S. Representative, Republican, Wisconsin

The House GOP's economic whiz kid, Paul Ryan leads a rising generation of policy innovators committed to making the Republicans an idea-driven party that applies timeless conservative principles to the nation's coming challenges.



No. 6: Edwin Feulner

President, Heritage Foundation

For more than 30 years, the president of the Heritage Foundation has been overseeing the conservative movement's premier think tank. Now he's injected new energy into the institution, and in a sign of confidence, is encouraging other center-right policy groups, like the American Enterprise Institute, to bring fresh conservative perspectives to policy battles.


No. 7: Charles Krauthammer

Columnist, Washington Post

Krauthammer is a gifted writer who is widely read and frequently seen. He is the E.F. Hutton of center-right punditry, influential in shaping the opinions of decision makers as well as ordinary Americans.
