Mark Levin: Scarborough 'Can't Hold a Candle to Sarah Palin'

Conservative talk radio host and scholar Mark Levin assailed MSNBC host Joe Scarborough on Monday for slamming Sarah Palin and implying that Palin--and the Tea Party--was fading away and losing influence.

On Monday morning, Scarborough joyously claimed on MSNBC's Morning Joe that Palin and the Tea Party did not represent the future of the conservative movement and implied those like New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie did.

On his talk radio show, Levin said Scarborough "can't hold a candle to Sarah Palin."

Levin said Scarborough's attack on Palin represented "cowardice," was "cheap," and symbolized a co-host playing to his liberal "media masters" at NBC. He accused Scarborough of hosting a show on "the most repugnant, repulsive, and discredited cable network in America," which he referred to as "MSLSD." Levin said Scarborough uses his platform to shoot "spitballs" at conservatives, statesmen, and leaders.

Levin also called it "disgraceful" that the National Review, a magazine Levin said he "grew up with" and used to "revere," promoted "this buffoon" last weekend.

Levin was referring to the magazine's "Future of Conservatism" conference at which Scarborough spoke. He said "nobody" thinks Scarborough represents the future of conservatism and called Scarborough a "joke."

"What has Joe Scarborough ever done for the conservative movement?," Levin indignantly asked, adding that he fits perfectly in MSNBC's "conga line" of "freaks and misfits."

Levin marveled that Scarborough would consider his vapid co-host Mika Brzezinski to be a "thoughtful and intelligent lady." He said Scarborough could not even succeed with "buffoons" on talk radio and found a niche on MSNBC, where he is adored by the mainstream media elite for ripping conservatives...

She’s still my hero, KC. If she never runs for anything ever again, I will always respect, admire, and wish her the greatest rest of her life possible. I so wish there were more Sarahs to look up to.

I share your feelings 100%

Sarah knows what we must do is bigger than her, she is a true leader.

She doesn't want power for power sake.

A trait less and less common in this country today.

That is why Sarah IS my role model. Standing up to the Corruption and those who abuse there power is among the highest calling.

Sarah is Lucky to have someone of YOUR principles Mesta to be her loyal supporter.

Another lie from another lying lib (Scarborough). Sarah has more smarts/class/dignity in her pinky nail than this idiot (Lyin’ Joe) will ever have. Glad Mark set yet another one straight. Glad Sarah lives rent free in every libs head.
