I can probably find a dozen Levin quotes to show how he is no neocon. I won't bother because I know that would be futile in changing your mind about him. But then, even though you and I find common ground on numerous issues, the "Paulistas" tend to brand as a 'neocon' anybody who supports any kind of involvement with a foreign country. So the labels flung around really do lose their punch as they become meaningless and just another smear code word.
Well if he is truly changing, good for him. But his past indicates he was a loyal Neocon/Progressive Globalist. He worked tirelessly promoting that agenda. I'm very skeptical of personalities like Levin, Limbaugh, and Hannity. To me, they seem a bit disingenuous. They were all for Big Government Globalism in the past. For me, it's just not enough to hate Democrats. I see Neocons as being Progressives. I don't see much difference. Their policies are very similar. I'll give Levin a chance though. I'll give him some time to prove he's no longer a Neocon/Progressive. I'm a fair-minded person.
I know you are. I also know you are a committed Paulista and, while I respect that, I just can't share the isolationist doctrine to the extent that most of Ron Paul's supporters do. And neither do the people you listed here that you are skeptical about. But progressive globalists? Nope. Don't think you'll find one in the bunch. And that would include Mark Levin.
One of the most interesting, albeit wordy, insights into Mark Levin's perception of the way things were or are can be found in this comparison of Ronald Reagan with George W. Bush if you (or anybody else) is interested and/or has the time:

He's a broken record he's just spewing out Ron Paul talking points. No thinking just talking points
