Why are they any more or less relevant than before?

They generally withheld their endorsements (on the GOP side) until fairly late in the process, and they probably contributed to Romney's big numbers compared to Huckabee.  Interfering in the Democratic primary was a game to them, and they are probably pleased at the length of the contest and the current hard feelings between Clinton and Obama supporters.

We all know they wanted Romney.

Sure, after the others dropped out.  By then, the race was McCain's to lose.

I always sensed that people like Hannity and Rush were all over Romney from the very beginning.

I think Rush probably liked Fred better.  Not sure about Hannity.

Hugh Hewitt certainly backed Romney from the start, but Michael Medved supported McCain.  They actually went on each other's shows and had a pretty diecent debate.

Well, I still say Romney is an inferior product and that's why even big-name talk radio hosts couldn't sell him.
