Video: Glenn Beck explains McCain comment, boils fake frog

This may contain some of what I just talked about. The context of the mccain comment.

Beck is a bit dramatic. That said, he has uncovered some data that the sheepeople need see and understand in order to defend this country. Beck has tied together the players in the 0bama drama. I should think Mark and Rush would see this. I don’t hear them devoting as much time and energy to this. Rush covers the topic in the news of the day, Mark has his valuable insights too. There is more than enough dirt on this 0bama and his ilk for all the talking conservatives to discuss. They will do themselves ill to start attacking one another and that is what the RATS dream of happening.

McCain is a progressive and would have been bad...but nobody in their right mind could build a cult of personality around John McCain. And the press would have hated him no matter what he did.

That’s the difference, and that’s why Obama is the worst possible person in the world we could have elected.

McCain would have been a loser, a liberal who could have been dealt with, and a simple one-term president. Obama is heading for dictator and Master of the Universe (in his dreams).

To tell the truth it's a "number of demons dancing on the head of a pin" argument. McCain didn't have much of a chance, and at least 50% of that was his fault. Would he have pressed for a nutty "stimulus package" or had a better chance of getting health care "reform" passed ...or clamored for tax reform? Or would he have found another cliff to pull Republicans off of? We'll never know. The present situation is bad enough, although I doubt that a McCain presidency would even have been a breath of fresh air at best.

The real question to be arguing about isn't even who is going to challenge Obama. It's what big legislative measures a new Republican majority ought to tirelessly campaign for until it get passed, even if that means doing nothing else until 2012.
