>> I can understand where being a “twoofer” or a “birther” might have some significance in a race for national office,
but in a primary race for state office, I can only view it as sensationalist [...]

Whether a candidate is as crazy as a loon is always relevant information ... no matter what office is at stake.

>> Glen Beck should be ashamed of himself.

He should get the Texas Equivalent of the Medal of Freedom. Beck may have very well saved Texas and the Tea Party Movement a monumental embarrassment. His outing of this whack-job may have spared the Tea Party movement aligning itself with a candidate that is completely crazy. He saved OUR credibility.

I don’t agree with everything Beck says and does but I always appreciate the information he provides or exposes.

After all, he could behave like the rest of the media and only ask softball questions. Seems to me that it was exactly that sort of behavior that got us Obama.

It's bad enough to hear the way the left and *Progressive Republicans* (dang, I hear her gum smacking in my head as I'm writing) portray things, from the crude homosexual reference to the elitist snobbery regarding intelligence. This is PRECISELY the kind of information that needs to be discovered by the citizenry of any candidate for any elected office, it our our first job as the voter to determine whether or not one who wants to be endowed with the Public Trust is indeed actually trustworthy. It is, or at least, it used to be, the job of the press to keep the electorate informed in just this manner.

For some here to question what this has to do with "an election in Texas" -- well, just shaking my head.
