Glenn Beck to Appear With Ted Cruz in Iowa
Newsmax ^ | 1/20/16 | Cathy Burke

Posted on 01/21/2016 5:35:24 AM PST by jimbo123

Conservative radio host and commentator Glenn Beck will be on the stump with GOP presidential contender Sen. Ted Cruz over the weekend in Iowa with less than two weeks before caucuses in the important early voting state.

The Cruz-supporting Keep the Promise super PAC is organizing the events where Beck will accompany Cruz in Ankeny and Waterloo, the Des Moines Register reports.

I catch a few minutes of Beck at times out of morbid curiosity (kinda like watching MSNBC). without fail, during these snippets, I always catch him and his lackeys are on a rant against Trump.

The snark and vitriol in their voices when doing these rants is what amazes me. After all, even if you are for the X guy that is not their guy, they are all better than the Dem alternative.

What the future bears with this path: Beck radio guest hosts like Allen Colmes and Stephanie Miller, followed in a few months by a crash of the Blaze “empire”. Have at this future, Beck-bots. No one will watch/listen/subscribe. This is already in progress.

Maybe they are following the Michael Smerconish model, once big on WPHT in Philly (apparently posing) as strong conservative until he went to the dark side and is now invisible (save for an hour on weekends on some cable show).

We are in it to win it...Ted Cruz 2016!

You'll be weeping like Beck when you see what this endorsement does for Ted Cruz.

I'm considering starting a tissue box concession here on FR, shall I put your name on the list? lol

Beck’s a little bit crazy, but he has 3 hours every weekday on the radio at prime 9 to noon in my top 25 metro market area. He must be making them money, so I wouldn’t scoff at his endorsement. He must reach a lot of people.

Talk about a shot of perspective. Hillary is a more frightening thought. I suppose with Trump we have “the friend of my enemy” in play.

Ok, where's the Godzilla 'face palm'?

Maybe there is some kind of strategy in play here between Trump, Cruz and Palin, but I sure as hell don't understand what it could be......

Pray for America! We need it like never before....

Ted Cruzs' "waterloo" was attacking Trump behind closes doors and they denying it until the tape was released. Cruzs' downfall began when Cruz questioned whether Trump has the temperament and judgement to be CiC. go to the 1:50 minute mark to hear Cruz on Trump (and Carson).

No kidding, Beck must really hate Cruz. I wonder how many soccer balls he brought this time?

Beck lost me with his gay marrage support and his rant about Hetrofascist.... hardly a Christian conservative

Is Beck bi-polar?

As an observation of my perception of reality (which has been known to be out of rig with the real thing), I don't think the association makes much difference. Cruz has bigger problems that are costing him support. Some people view Beck as a nutcase, most don't have a clue who he is, and some like what he has to say. If was going to quantify the "Beck Effect" just on intuition, I'd say it costs Cruz 0.1% in the polls. Not enough to make a difference. I don't think this will be a close race, but if it is a close race, Cruz won't be in the top two. Not because of Beck.

There’s a paragraph at the very end of this article that tells how this strange alliance came to be. I was somewhat taken aback. What do you think?

I don’t see that helping Cruz in Iowa. It won’t hurt in Nevada, though.
