You know, there is something deeper going on here, but I can’t figure it out... there is no reason for Beck to be so absolutely hateful about Newt... I mean hatefilled, when Newt is at least marginally more conservative than Romney. The only thing I can think of, Beck is jealous of Newt’s command of history and his professorial bent, which is something Beck really would like to have in terms of academic legitimacy... or something.
Beck’s opposition to Newt is based on Newt’s self admitted support and admiration for Progressives and progressive ideas.
