Erick Erickson beats Chuck Norris

Erick Erickson beats Chuck Norris.

Not in a martial arts death match, perhaps, but on the Telegraph newspaper’s list of the 100 most influential conservatives in the U.S.

The Red State and Peach Pundit blogger is 69 on the list.

Chuck Norris is 71.

Erickson’s outranking of Norris is especially impressive when you consider that, when Norris does a push-up, he isn’t lifting himself up. He’s pushing the Earth down.

Erickson was one of the featured bloggers in CL’s “Bright lights in the blogosphere” story in May.
