Radio host Michael Savage offers Newt Gingrich $1M to drop out of 2012 election; rival Mark Levin fires back

Dueling radio hosts spar over GOP frontrunner's chances of beating Obama

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS

Radio host Michael Savage has offered Newt Gingrich a million bucks to go away, saying a "fat old white man" can’t beat Barack Obama in the 2012 president election.

Savage’s rival radio host Mark Levin responded by offering Savage $100,000 to leave the radio.

So far, no one seems to be reaching for the money.

Savage, heard early evenings in New York on WOR (710 AM), holds some of the same positions as Gingrich. But he doesn’t care much for Gingrich himself, questioning his position on issues like immigration and criticizing his messy personal life.

More to the point, Savage explained on the air, the only relevant goal in 2012 is to beat Obama and Gingrich can’t do it.

"On television he will come off badly compared to Obama and look like nothing more than what he is, a fat, old, white man," said Savage.

Savage, who is not given to understatement, has suggested many times that if Obama wins a second term, America is finished.

Of course, to hear Savage talk, America is pretty much finished anyhow. He just seems to think Romney could buy it a little more time.

Meanwhile, speaking of not liking people, Mark Levin has never much cared for Savage – whom he calls "Weiner," which is Savage’s birth name.

So Levin, who is heard in that same early evening spot in New York on WABC (770 AM), offered Savage $100,000 to give up his radio show.

Levin added that this might happen even without the money, saying Savage is "losing affiliates left and right" because he "takes his audience for granted."

Levin has had a hot-and-cold relationship with Gingrich, blasting him in a long rant last year, but giving him airtime this year to explain some of his positions to Levin’s conservative audience.

Both Savage and Levin have large radio followings. By the most recent estimates of the trade magazine Talkers, Savage reaches more than 9 million listeners a week, making him the third most popular host in the country after Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity.

Talkers estimates Levin’s audience at more than 8.5 million, putting him in a tie for fourth place with Dave Ramsey and Glenn Beck.
