Before we get to Linda Ronstadt, how about Leon Russell? I think his contributions to rock & roll far outweigh (no pun intended) Linda's.

And how about the fact that they snubbed the Moody Blues? Or how Black Sabbath got denied 7 times and, on the 8th time, Ozzy told them to stop putting them on the ballot cause he couldn't handle any more disappointment? Or how Heart is yet to get in at all?
Basically, what I'm saying that the RNRHoF has become a snooty country club that excludes rockers and brings in people that aren't even the right genre (ABBA is very good, don't get my wrong, but they're pop), and if Linda doesn't get in, it's not the end of the world, but that doesn't necessarilry mean she's bad (she still makes great music and i do enjoy her version of You're No Good).
