Mark Levin: Beck saying 'McCain would have been worse' is 'pandering' and 'pathetic'

I get why Michael Savage has animosity with other conservatives, but even Savage has praised Fox News and Rush Limbaugh sometimes. Mark Levin is stoking the fire it seems.

Looks Like the philosophical problem happens to be over who to back for a Republican nomination in the nest presidential election and what to do to fix the political system. Limbaugh said that the Republican party has to be fixed and not to create a third party or back a third party candidacy.

Beck has taken shots before at republicans because he sees that both parties are broken. Like many here on Free Republic he has gone after McCain, Lindsey Graham, and others. He is a Libertarian leaning so he has brought some on before like Wayne Allen Root and he has brought on Ron Paul too.

Same problem I saw on some thread at Newsbusters where a debate erupted over whether voting for bad nominees was better than voting for Libertarians and third party candidates.

So Levin is now fighting back. Frankly that is what seems to be the situation. As I said before Levin is a hard core Republican. Now Limbaugh has gone after some Republicans because they suck and vote Democrat at times.

Key Difference is while Limbaugh and Levin want the party to vote out the bums, Beck sees corruption in both parties.
And So does Michael Savage so probably why he was shunned by others on Talk radio.

Of course he has a point but There’s only so much that can be taken. Talk about Obama being overexposed, Beck overload is a real thing. I bet he’s going to flare out if he doesn’t rein himself in.

Levin is a heavy weight, Conservative Constitutional Lawyer, having served for Reagan directly... and Glen, while effectual, a Patriot and entertaining... is a celebrity.

Yeah, so why is Levin talking crap to Katie Couric? I’ve heard here that Levin is a bit peeved for Beck not crediting him sometimes.

See? People are choosing up sides. Beck vs Levin and Rush, etc, etc, etc. This is good? I don’t think so. I think Mark could have shut it on this issue. But no, he’s fallen for the old divide and conquer.

Anyone with a Ron Paul fascination has some of his cylinders misfiring.

There was no Republican in the race who could have beat Obama last year. Next time is our best chance. Hopefully we can retire McCain before then.

The great one is right. McCain as POTUS might’ve been worse than Obama for the Republican Party. Little else. Beck is just wrong here.

Ditto. I really had a hard time pulling the lever for McCain because at least with Obama, conservatives have re-awakened. It’s unlikely that these tea parties would have occurred with McCain as president.

I was prepared to consider Hillary because at least with her, there’s a chance that she will do whatever politically expedient. This means that there’s a chance that she’ll actually do the right thing every once in awhile, just like her husband.

It was clear to me at the time that Obama was an ideolouge: a true-believer that will not be swayed by the opposition.

With McCain, while I trust him to do right by the troops, he would get bipartisan support to take the rest of the U.S. straight to socialist hell.

Mark does not have much love for “repubics”. He wants the grownups to take over again. So do I!

I’m on the side of the US. McCain would have been almost as bad but couldn’t have been stopped. That makes Obama better.
