Bill Maher was Larry King’s guest on Larry King Live tonight, and the results were…well, they weren’t surprising at all, if you know Bill Maher. There was talk about Obama, Republicans, Tea Partiers, birthers, “churchers” (a new one invented by Maher) and tonight’s most momentous primary result…but mostly, as there usually is with Maher, there was zero middle ground.

After John King interrupted Larry King’s broadcast to announce the Delaware primary for Tea-Part-backed candidate Christine O’Donnell, Larry king discussed the result with Maher. Maher’s takeaway was that “Democrats should be very happy” that the likes of O’Donnell are winning primaries, because:

Certainly Christine O’Donnell could not win in a state like Delaware. Because she’s just crazy…even people who are angry understand that crazy people are not gonna make it better.”

But the biggest fireworks came when Maher was asked if there are racist overtones to Obama hate. His answer (“Yes, Larry, it’s extremely racist”) should surprise no one, and his follow-up zing was classic Maher: “It’s funny, ’cause the teabaggers – the one thing they hate: when you call them racist. The other thing they hate is black people.

1. The Churchers (You mean those value voters)
One of the few times in that I've agreed with George Will (he made this comment in 2005)

Value voters is the worst term I've ever heard. Everyone has values and they vote those values.
