Beck got lucky there IMO. Andrew Breitbart and the young investigative reporters who went after ACORN did alot for Beck by giving him the exclusive TV rights to their work. Before Obama and acorn and van Jones Beck was on the radio every day talking about "the Perfect Storm" that was coming from Iran and how they were going to destroy us any day now. He went with that spiel for over a year! Beck's an emotional cripple and a drama queen. He can be entertaining but he's not any conservative's saviour.
