Poll question: Who Has The Most Power Over The Republican Party?

After the 2008 election, we heard that the Republican party would engage in some introspection, and try to re-evaluate what it stood for. However, nearly a year after the election, it is back to the future with many of the old people running the Republican party, still running the Republican party. So called "new" faces for the Republican party like Bobby Jindal, have fallen by the side of the road. Indeed, the most interesting thing about the Republican party is that so much of the power in the party appears to be concentrated outside of the normal party apparatus. Can you imagine if Rachel Maddow had the same power over the Democratic Party that Beck, Limbaugh, etc. does over the Republicans?

So, with these thoughts, who do you think has the most power over the Republican party?
