No, but is making it harder for the health care reform bill to pass IMO. Jackson does represent the democrats, and they have put him first and foremost in conventions and other prominent events. He has run for office as a democrat. If the GOP catered to Limbaugh in that way, you would hear a loud roar from the democrats no doubt. I think Limbaugh is a talking head, but Jackson does have some political bite with the democrats. He has worked hard in their party/organization for a long time to have that influence. That is something Limbaugh has not done.
