The latest poll of those calling themselves Republicans asking the question, "Who speaks for the GOP?" produced the result that 52% had no clue and the leader of the 4 mentioned was Limbaugh at 13%.

"June 10, 2009:
From CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney. Americans are unsure who speaks for the GOP, according to a new poll.
WASHINGTON (CNN) – As the Republican Party struggles to regain its footing following the November elections, a new survey shows that a majority of adult Americans sees no clear leader for the minority political party. Even more problematic for the GOP is that one-third of Republicans hold an unfavorable view of their party, according to the USA Today/Gallup poll.

When it comes to naming a “main person” who speaks for the GOP, 52 percent of Americans were unable to do so. Among those who did name a speaker for the GOP, 13 percent identified conservative talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh, while 10 percent named former Vice President Dick Cheney. Arizona Sen. John McCain and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich were each named by 6 percent of Americans in the poll. Just 3 percent said former President George W. Bush is currently the most prominent Republican speaker, while Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, and House Minority Leader John Boehner were each named by 1 percent of participants in the survey."


The current leading spokesman for the GOP is a thrice-married ex-junky and Vietnam War slacker.
